Batch Originate Commands
Overview #
The BatchOriginateCommandEffect provides an efficient way to insert multiple commands into a note simultaneously. When you need to create many commands at once, using batch originate significantly improves performance compared to individual originate operations.
Parameters:
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
commands | list | true | List of command instances to batch originate |
Returns:
An Effect that can be applied to originate all commands in a single operation.
How It Works #
The batch originate effect processes multiple commands in a single operation:
- Command Preparation: Each command in the list required all necessary fields for
originate - Note Update: The note is updated once with all command UUIDs, rather than updating for each command individually
This approach minimizes database round-trips and improves overall performance.
Basic Usage #
from canvas_sdk.commands import (
PlanCommand,
HistoryOfPresentIllnessCommand,
QuestionnaireCommand,
DiagnoseCommand
)
from canvas_sdk.effects.batch_originate import BatchOriginateCommandEffect
from canvas_sdk.handlers import BaseHandler
from canvas_sdk.v1.data import Questionnaire, Note
from canvas_sdk.events import EventType
class Handler(BaseHandler):
def compute(self):
note_uuid = Note.objects.last().id
# Create multiple commands
plan1 = PlanCommand()
plan1.narrative = "Order labs for lipid panel"
plan1.note_uuid = note_uuid
plan2 = PlanCommand()
plan2.narrative = "Schedule follow-up in 3 months"
plan2.note_uuid = note_uuid
hpi = HistoryOfPresentIllnessCommand()
hpi.narrative = "Annual wellness visit"
hpi.note_uuid = note_uuid
diagnose = DiagnoseCommand()
diagnose.icd10_code = "E11.9"
diagnose.note_uuid = note_uuid
diagnose.background = "Type 2 diabetes mellitus"
# Add a questionnaire
questionnaire = QuestionnaireCommand()
questionnaire.note_uuid = note_uuid
questionnaire_id = Questionnaire.objects.filter(
name="Patient Health Questionnaire"
).first()
if questionnaire_id:
questionnaire.questionnaire_id = str(questionnaire_id.id)
# Batch originate all commands
commands_to_originate = [plan1, plan2, hpi, diagnose, questionnaire]
return [BatchOriginateCommandEffect(commands=commands_to_originate).apply()]
