Which of the following are true about hl7.parse{}

A.

It takes only one mandatory parameter 'data' and an optional vmd parameter
B.

Hl7.parse will always find all segments in a message
C.

It returns a writeable node tree containing a parsed HL7 message
D.

It takes two mandatory parameters data and vmd

Correct Answer
D. It takes two mandatory parameters data and vmd

Explanation
the parse method takes two 'mandatory' parameters data and vmd. It will not find a segment if it is not in the vmd and it is not a 'writable' node tree that is returned.

We recommend creating a trace() function to display variable values in annotations, instead of using print because print() will also create log entries when the channel is run - which is not ideal.

A.

True
B.

False

Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Although a simple "print" statement is typically used for displaying a variable's current state, this command actually creates log entries when you run the channel. Because we only want insight into our code as we develop it, we aren't really interested in producing actual log data for each step in our code. Iguana offers a clever little solution: the trace() function. This function works like a basic 'print' command, but it does not produce any tangible data when the channel is run. In other words, it is designed to do nothing but help you examine your developing code.

Which of the following is true about the tostring() function that we used?

A.

The tostring() function converted our outbound node tree into a string
B.

Lua cannot convert a node to a string
C.

Tostring() is a function that comes as part of the Lua language
D.

Tostring() does not allow carriage returns so should not be used for hl7

Correct Answer(s)
A. The tostring() function converted our outbound node tree into a string
C. Tostring() is a function that comes as part of the Lua language

Explanation
tostring() is part of the Lua language and comes installed with Iguana. It can be used to convert data or a nodetree into a string. Our messages will still continue to have any carriage returns or line feeds associated with out messages.

Which of the following is true about saving milestones into Fossil?

A.

The Milestone stores the main function, 'shared' functions and any 'other' files that are in your project.
B.

If there are no milestones Iguana will run the code in editor instead.
C.

You cannot revert a single file in a project to a milestone you must revert all files
D.

You must restart the channel after saving a milestone for it to take effect on the channel.

Correct Answer(s)
A. The Milestone stores the main function, 'shared' functions and any 'other' files that are in your project.
D. You must restart the channel after saving a milestone for it to take effect on the channel.

Explanation

-Milestones save all function the main, shared and other files. Everything you need to run the channel and move it to another computer if needed.
-You must save a milestone for a channel with a script to work. Otherwise you receive an error and the channel will not begin. http://learn.interfaceware.com/4132.html
-You CAN revert all files or a single file. For example if you wanted to just restore the 'dateparse' module you could do that. http://help.interfaceware.com/kb/82
-Once you save the milestone the effect does not take place immediately. You must got back and start/restart the channel. This is a way to protect you from implementing incorrect or incomplete code.

Why did we use a filter component in the Outbound channel rather than the Inbound channel?

A.

So when we re-set the queue the messages were unaltered/
B.

So when we resubmitted a message any changed code in our filter would run.
C.

This way we can have different logic for each outbound channel
D.

All of the above

Correct Answer
D. All of the above

We used the function hl7.message{} to create an empty node tree that we could begin inserting data into for our outbound hl7 message?

A.

True
B.

False

Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
To create a blank message, we are going to use the hl7.message{} function and the same VMD file from the previous step. Using the same VMD file will produce the same node structure as our parsed HL7 data.

A.

We had to add a separate notification module to Iguana.
B.

We added a user to receive the alerts and that user needed an email address.
C.

We setup a notification rule to look in the logs for the string 'ALERT:'.
D.
