This PR proposes a new architecture that allows users to (1) apply a targeted subset of checks based on a particular context of interest (e.g. ICU, pregnancy, oncology, etc.), and (2) add modules that include multiple complex checks at any level (TABLE, FIELD, CONCEPT) without needing to add multiple columns per check to the orchestration csv files. I've also incorporated a first demo module (ICU) that can be selected by passing a single argument (
contextModule
=ICU
) to the mainexecuteDqChecks
function.It also adds documentation about how to create and insert new modules, either for local use or for dissemination within focused consortia.
The code changes address the following issues:
