Am just plain curious about how people may be approaching this area.

The Question

The %SYSTEM.License API wraps an IRIS key that is specific to a range of InterSystems products with

•  Platform features
•  Platform behaviors
•  Expiry date
•  Capacity / Usage limits

If a company is implementing deployed products that:

• run on top of IRIS
• optionally support other vendor IRIS products

For example:

• a "plug-in" API
• a knowledge-base

And they have an IPM deployed solution.

To avoid reinventing the wheel, am wondering for commercial vendors, is there a common way to achieve third-party

Hi Community,

I have tried using all date function  $ZDH,$ZDT no luck can anyone help me to convert this into required format.

Thanks,

ZPM is designed to work with applications and modules for InterSystems IRIS Data Platform. It consists of two components, the ZPN Client which is a CLI to manage modules, and The Registry which is a database of modules and meta-information. We can use ZPM to search, install, upgrade, remove and publish modules. With ZPM you can install ObjectScript classes, Frontend applications, Interoperability productions, IRIS BI solutions, IRIS Datasets or any files such as Embedded Python wheels. 

Today this cookbook will go through 3 sections:

1. Install ZPM
2. Generate Module
3. Find, Install, publish

Hi all

I need to do hardware maintenance on a physical HealthConnect server which forms one half of a mirrored pair, and  It will require multiple restarts.

So, I will need to prevent any HealthConnect services from restarting until all maintenance is completed. Is this just a case of disabling the service "HealthConnect Controller for <SERVERNAME>", or is there anything else I need to be aware of?

It is with great pleasure that the CIUSSS de l'Estrie - CHUS is sharing the mocking framework it developed and presented at the InterSystems Summit 2017.  I will update this post with more detailed instructions in the next few weeks but I wanted to share the code and presentation quickly :

I hope you'll find this useful for your unit testing. We are using this extensively for the last 2 years and it really works well! The repo is public, feel free to submit enhancements!

Do not forget to enable the %UnitTest in your SMP.

Hello Community!

I'm going to try to explain how to create test for Postman collections for use it with my app IRIS Api Tester.

Yet, What is Newman?:

Newman is a command-line tool that allows you to run Postman collections in an automated and scalable way. By creating tests in Newman, you can ensure the reliability and correctness of your API endpoints. In this article, we will explore how to create tests for Newman in Postman, along with practical examples to help you get started.

Once you have created your Postman Collection:

For volatile tables (tables with many INSERTs and DELETEs), storage for bitmap indexes can become inefficient over time.

For example, suppose that there are thousands of data with the following definition, and the operation of bulk deletion with TRUNCATE TABLE after being retained for a certain period of time is repeatedly performed.

Class MyWork.MonthData Extends (%Persistent, %Populate)
{
/// Level of satisfaction
Property Satisfaction As %String(VALUELIST = ",満足,やや満足,やや不満,不満,");
/// Age
Property Age As %Integer(MAXVAL = 70, MINVAL = 20);
Index AgeIdx On Age [

Hi All,

See code below. We don't want to %FromJSON interpret the data. 

We're creating a method to convert json to csv but we don't want to convert/interpret any of the data

The write in the code snipped below will give 220 as weight instead of 220.00.

Does anyone now a way/method to don't interpret the data without put "" on the values?

Class Tmp.test
{

ClassMethod help()
{
		set src = "{""name"" : ""greg"", ""weight"" : 220.00 }"set obj = ##class(%DynamicAbstractObject).%FromJSON(src)
     	write obj.name,!
     	write obj.weight,!
     	return$$$OK
}

}

Hi folks!

How can I refer to a classmethod of the same class while coding another classmethod with Embedded python?

I know that I can call it with iris.cls(classname).MethodName(), but it's more cumbersome even comparing with ObjectScript, where I can call ..MethodName().

Compare ObjectScript:

do..SetupGame()

and the same call in EmbeddedPython:

    iris.cls('eshvarov.sample.SeaBattle.GamePython').SetupGame()

Thoughts?

We are trying to come up with huge DataStore which needs to store HIPAA transactions and Data getting partitioned with idkey - YYYYMM.  Current Live data get inserted into current Month DB -  HIPAA_202306. 10 years (Hipaa retention policy) old data is going to be sitting in to 120 DBs ( 201606_HIPAA, 201607... 202305) for historical audit legal compliance purposes.

Currently if we create Namespace we get 2 databases - CODEDB for routes/classes & DATADB for journals data.  

In our requirement, Global mapping should point to 120 DataDbs. How would we Map/design this using Globals.

Hi All,
I was creating a unit test directory with the below script. But it not creating any directory as mentioned in code. I am working on MacBook with irisusr User as standard installation process.

if '$data(^UnitTestRoot) {

set mainFolder = "UnitTest\NewDir\"

set st = ##class(%File).CreateDirectoryChain(mainFolder _ testSuite)

if $$$ISOK(st) { set ^UnitTestRoot = mainFolder }

else {

write !, "UnitTestRoot folder could not be created. Consult with instructor."

do $system.Status.DisplayError(st)

}

Hi Community,

I would like to know how I can query a list of patients that were revoked on HealthShare for the month of April and May.

Messages are sent using FHIR and a revoke is handled with active:false as seen below. A non-revocation will have active: true on the patient resource.

I wanted to check SQL tables but I am not sure which one to check if so. Please advise on how to go about getting this report.

Regards,

Getting INVALID OREF error while unit testing. Also ResultDyanmicObj.Headers.%Size(),DummyResponse.Headers.%Size() these are working fine getting 7 value from both. but still it is not working.

do $$$AssertEquals(ResultDyanmicObj.Headers.%Size(),DummyResponse.Headers.%Size(), "Validation for Headers")

Hi All,
I want to write testcase in objectscript but stuck at this point where I am getting a DynamicObject from the class method and how can I assert this and check it is okay. 
Also if in any case error It will throw error custom exception class that I created. How to handle assertion for exception in this case also.

Hi All,

I am trying to execute my SQL query using ExecDirect() method and it returns a ResultSet. No doubt it works fine after this I am trying to fetch each value using a loop code below. But before that, I am also checking for %SQLCODE = 100 which is for an empty resultset I think. However, It is not working as desired. In the case of an empty resultset also I am getting %SQLCODE = 0 until result.%Next() is called. Also, %ROWCOUNT is giving 0 in a case where my query is return 1 result row. I am so confused about this.
while resultset.%Next() {

// code

}

I have latest VS Code 1.50.1 and latest ObjectScript extension.

For some unknown reasons, my IRIS icon disappeared from VS Code activity bar.

How can I get my IRIS icon back?

Has anyone come across a good using Embedded Python to convert a Python List object to an IRIS %List object?

My use case is I want to open an SQL entry with an Objectscript class method, then pass some information from that row into a separate Python class method which will then create a Python List object, then have the Python class method return that list back to the Objectscript class method in such a way that the Python List can be converted to an IRIS %List object for me to then use in the Objectscript code.

Hi folks!

I have a need to use symilar to $property function from Python. Here is the code:

obj=iris.cls('some.persistent.class')._New()

for property, value in data.items():

 $property(obj.property)=value ; I invented this

How could I do this? Any trick?

For now I plan to implement a helper function in iris that I will call, but I doubt also how can I transfer oref to IRIS.

Thoughts?

Hi community members!

I'm trying to deploy a container based on IRIS Community for Health ML image available from this url but when I start the container the memory consumption skyrockets to 99% making impossible to work with the instance (it never goes below the 95% of the memory). When I do the same with the IRIS Community for Health image it never goes over 80% of memory.

Is this a known problem? Should I try another version? Maybe have I just to sit down in a corner and cry like a baby?
