Variable: AMBIGUOUS_CODES

const AMBIGUOUS_CODES: object

Stable codes for the two ways a flat, stream-scoped accessor can fail to name a single answer. Renaming a code is a breaking change.

Type Declaration

ASTM_AMBIGUOUS_MULTI_MESSAGE

readonly ASTM_AMBIGUOUS_MULTI_MESSAGE: "ASTM_AMBIGUOUS_MULTI_MESSAGE" = "ASTM_AMBIGUOUS_MULTI_MESSAGE"

The stream carries more than one H … L message, so a stream-wide answer spans patients.

ASTM_AMBIGUOUS_MULTI_PATIENT

readonly ASTM_AMBIGUOUS_MULTI_PATIENT: "ASTM_AMBIGUOUS_MULTI_PATIENT" = "ASTM_AMBIGUOUS_MULTI_PATIENT"

The one message in the stream carries more than one P, so "the patient" is not determined.

Example

import { parseAstmRecords, patient, AMBIGUOUS_CODES, AstmAmbiguousStreamError } from "@cosyte/astm";
try {
  patient(parseAstmRecords(raw));
} catch (err) {
  if (err instanceof AstmAmbiguousStreamError) {
    err.code === AMBIGUOUS_CODES.ASTM_AMBIGUOUS_MULTI_MESSAGE;
  }
}
