NB. Please be advised that PKI is not intended to produce certificates for secure production systems. You should make alternate arrangements to create certificates for your productions.
NB. PKI is deprecated as of IRIS 2024.1: documentation and announcement.

In this post, I am going to detail how to set up a mirror using SSL, including generating the certificates and keys via the Public Key Infrastructure built in to InterSystems IRIS Data Platform. I did a similar post in the past for Caché, so feel free to check that out here if you are not running InterSystems IRIS. Much like the original, the goal of this is to take you from new installations to a working mirror with SSL, including a primary, backup, and DR async member, along with a mirrored database. I will not go into security recommendations or restricting access to the files. This is meant to just simply get a mirror up and running. Example screenshots are taken on a 2018.1.1 version of IRIS, so yours may look slightly different.

Hi Friends,

I have a requirement to convert pdf from URL to Base64 format. I have created one utility method and used in the DTL.

Working fine for small pdf files , we got one pdf with size 4MB , this method is failing (creating corrupted base64 content).

Could you please suggest me the way to convert big pdfs?

set encodedData = ""
set request=##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New()
    do request.Get(httpUrl)
    if request.HttpResponse.StatusCode = 200
    {
//set len = request.HttpResponse.Data.SizeGet()
    set content = request.HttpResponse.Data.Read()
    set encodedData = $system.Encryption.

We have imported a CLinical Document Architecture v2 (CDA2) schema to create CDA2 content using %XML.Adaptor classes 

Schema 

https://gazelle.ihe.net/XSD/HL7/CDA/POCD_MT000040.xsd

One of the item is "observation " with value property 

Class Region.ITXX.Utility.COMMON.CDA2.Schema.POCDMT000040.Observation Extends (%RegisteredObject, %XML.Adaptor) [ CompileAfter = (Region.ITXX.Utility.COMMON.CDA2.Schema.ActClassObservation, Region.ITXX.Utility.COMMON.CDA2.Schema.NullFlavor, Region.ITXX.Utility.COMMON.CDA2.Schema.bl, Region.ITXX.Utility.COMMON.CDA2.Schema.

I am reading file values by position with comma-separated string and it gives me incorrect values on the below line because there is a comma within double quotes within a string.

I would like to remove any text that has quotes with object script or alternatively separate each value with pipe-delimited so that I can return position 8 as code and position 9 as a description

s line = file.

The concept of low code development is getting more and more important across all industries. Everybody who is starting to get into low code programming, will inevitably come across Node-RED. InterSystems IRIS is renowned for its interoperability and so should be accessible via Node-RED.

For those who have not heard of Node-RED yet: Node-RED is a Low-Code programming application, which is based on so called nodes that are connected with wires. Nodes process incoming messages and forward them to the next connected node.

Hello,

I am currently having the experience activating prometheus for iris db.

This environment that I speak uses IKO as a base.

I need to put 3 notes in the iris service area.

Are they:

annotations:
   prometheus.io/path: "/monitor/metrics"
   prometheus.io/port: "52772"
   prometheus.io/scrape: "true"

I'm not finding this possibility in the IKO documentation.

Has anyone had this experience and can help us with this challenge?

 Below is the current configuration we made, however, it did not create the annotations we need

apiVersion: intersystems.

Starting today, we have release the new CCR view page to beta users! 

As the view page contains a lot of functionality, we are giving users the ability to toggle their session between the new UI and the classic UI view pages.   Your sessions will default to the classic UI for now, but beta users will see a "View in New UI" button in the nav bar for Tier 0 and 1 CCRs:

Similarly, the new UI page will have a "View in Classic UI" button at the top:

At any time, disabling your beta user flag will return you to the Classic UI for viewing CCRs.

Hello,

I am trying to grab a specific zip file from a webpage but once I grab the zip file I need to grab a specific file within that zip file and I was hoping someone could explain how to do this or provide an example

I'm trying to create a read-only role for most pages on the Management Portal. However, I cannot figure out resource permissions for the HealthShare tab or how to assign custom resource permissions, if any, to the registries. I would like for the role to include read-only access to the registries (service, consent, otherwise). How do I go about doing this?

To celebrate programming day, could we create solutions for a little challenge?

We have the following statement:

Given a string of words, return the length of the shortest word(s).

String will never be empty and you do not need to account for different data types.

Some test made in Java would be:

import org.junit.Test;

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Random;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;

Good morning,

I am having some issues defining the response timeout of my webservices.

I have set the value response timeout to 20 seconds.

The failure timeout is set to 20 seconds also in order to avoid Ensemble to make retries.

Hi Community,

I am getting the below error when searching for a  patient who has medications on the clinical viewer.

What could be the issue?

We have a handful of cases where we get reflex orders in an interface that contain multiple OBR segments. These are rare but when we get them, they are causing errors in down stream systems because we are unintentionally excluding OBR segments.

Questions:

At the DTL level - is it possible to iterate over this segment WITHOUT altering the underlying schema? If so what would that look like?

Ideally we would not like to alter the schema unless we have to. No matter what logic we attempt to write on the DTL level we are unable to read anything past the first OBR (because of our schema config). 

Hi Team,

Can you please help me to develop EDI X12 to XML and XML to EDI X12 conversion in IRIS 2021.1 for EDI 204, also known as Motor Carrier Load Tender?

Also, suggest flow for how to achieve this kind of functionality in InterSystems IRIS. If you are able to provide some Videos/Documents on the EDI X12 interface for 204 then it would be very helpful for me.

Thanks,

Harshdeep Acharya

I am having an issue where a routine that is changed is at times still running the old version of code.  The routine is compiled after the change.
I am wondering if it is possible that the routine code is still in the routine buffer cache.  Is there a way to force a flush or reload of the buffer for a given routine?

Sometimes, our available license will drop and upon close inspection, it is caused by one or two users occupying 50 or so licenses, and we believe that if there were more, they were all gonna be used up. This occurs randomly. As is illustrated in the following figure.

Out cache version is 2016.1. It is serving a health care web application. Our web browsers are exclusively IE-11.

FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a network protocol for transmitting files over TCP/IP connections in a network (including the Internet) configured to transfer files via this protocol. In an FTP transaction, a file sender is called a local host. A file receiver involved in FTP is a remote host, and it is usually a server. Although many file transfers can be conducted using Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), FTP is still commonly used to transfer files behind the scenes for other applications, such as banking services.

Hi,
I need to do a DELETE and then do some INSERT transactions on a linked table and don't want the DELETE and need to be able to ROLLBACK the DELETE if any of the INSERT transactions fail.
I have tried Object Script transaction processing (TSTART, TCOMMIT and TROLLBACK) and the SQL transaction processing (START TRANSACTION, COMMIT and ROLLBACK), but neither work.
Could I be doing something wrong in the way I am implementing these, or do does transaction processing simply not work for linked table?
Thanks for any advices, in advance.

With $Property is possible to dynamically get and set values on property of an instanced class and with $ClassMethod is possible to invoke methods from a class. I would like to know: Is there an elegant way to do Write and Set dynamically on variables without using Xecute?

Easy, easy, I'm not promoting a war against the machines in the best sci-fi way to avoid world domination of Ultron or Skynet. Not yet, not yet 🤔

I invite you to challenge the machines through the creation of a very simple game using ObjectScript with embedded Python.

I have to say that I got super excited with the feature of Embedded Python on InterSystems IRIS, it's incredible the bunch of possibilities that opens to create fantastic apps.

Let's build a tic tac toe, the rules are quite simple and I believe that everyone knows how to play.

Hi Developers!!,

I know what you are thinking... a new feature for ZEN.proxyObject...? NOW..???

In Spain we say that better late than never  ;-)

Have you ever need to send a numeric attribue of a Json in String format?

Did you go crazy casting class objects with fixed typed properties?

Lucky you!!

With this new feature I propose a way to continue working with our loved dynamic object %ZEN.proxyObject, being able to choose whether or not we want to send numeric attributes in String format.

You: "That's great!

Hey Developers, 

In this video you will learn what Kubernetes is and how it can be beneficial for deploying containerized application workloads:

I do not know about others, but Docker and the intro of Docker was not a forte of mine coming into trying out new components of InterSystems IRIS. We are moving to IRIS and with that we want to incorporate into our upgrade. I have been struggling with trying to understand Docker. I know it is not an InterSystems product but the assumption that everyone knows Docker and is using Docker has caused me a great deal of time.

What is everyone's thoughts about getting some kind of docker help like a basic understanding within InterSystems documentation.

I submitted an Idea to the Idea a thon.

Folks!

Could you please share any best practices on how to debug Embedded Python code?

Given I have the following class method:

ClassMethod HideShip() As %Status [ Language = python ]
{
    import iris
    shipsgl=iris.gref(iris.cls(__name__)._GetParameter("BoardStorage"))
    shipsgl.kill()
    from random import Random
    board=iris.cls(__name__)._GetParameter("BoardRange")
    x=random.randint(0,board+1)
    y=random.randint(0,board+1)
    shipsgl.set([x,y],1)
}

And when I run it shows the following error:

USER>d ##class(eshvarov.sample.SeaBattle.GamePython).

Hi!

Is there any ARM64 ODC driver available for InterSystems Caché?

It would be really very useful!
