Hi everyone,

I’m new to this community and could really use some help with creating a production in InterSystems IRIS for Health Community 2024.3. I have deployed my instance using Docker.
Here’s what I’m trying to do:

1. Input: I have an HL7 file that is processed by the standard EnsLib.HL7.Service.FileService.
2. DTL Transformation: I’ve created a DTL to transform the HL7 content into a custom class like this:

Hi Developers!

As you know the concept of ObjectScript Package Manager consists of ZPM client - client application for IRIS which helps you to install packages from the registry. And the code which works "on the other side" is  ZPM Registry - server which hosts packages and exposes API to submit, list and install it. Now when you install the ZPM client it installs packages from community package registry, which si hosted on pm.community.intersystems.com

But what if you want your own registry? E.g. you produce different software packages for your clients and you want to distribute it via private registry?  Also, you may want to use your own registry to deploy solutions with different combinations of packages.

Is it possible? The answer is YES! You can have it if you deploy ZPM registry on your server with InterSystems IRIS.

To make it happen you would need to set up your own registry server.

How to do that?

Hi IRIS experts!

I have a parameter in a class that stores a global name:

Parameter GlobalName = "^AGlobal";

then I'm trying to call it as:

set gn=$name(..#GlobalName)

to use it later as:

set @gn@("index")="value"

But! I'm having syntax at set gn=$name(..#GlobalName)

What am I doing wrong?

Hello,

I have a class with a "Unique" index (pxfactidIndex) on a %Numeric property (pxfactid) (partially-edit code snippet below):

I want to add a database to a mirror.

Is this the correct way to do so:

set status=##Class(SYS.Mirror).AddDatabase("/db/iknow")

Is the status=0 if it worked and anything else means it failed?

Thanks for any help

Hi Community,

In the previous article, we told you about python and dashboard, and in this article I will compare them with each other.If you are just about to get started with visualization in Python, the number of libraries and solutions will definitely amaze you:

• matplotlib
• Seaborn
• Plotly
• bokeh
• Altair
• Folium

A visualization in some libraries, such as Matplotlib, is a simple static image, which is good for explaining concepts (in a document, on slides, or in a presentation).

Is there a way in a EnsLib.SQL.InboundAdpapter that you can tell when you have reached the end of the Results of the Query?

Upon doing A NEW INSTALL of IRIS 2025.1 on a new computer, the IR task appears in the tray and a right click to invoke the Launcher yields no response. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Does anyone have a query that I could run to show a Vendor the time difference between when a message was sent out a BO, and when we received the HL7 ACK back that is associated with the message sent?

I am trying to prove to this vendor of the delay we are seeing getting the ACK back because of a Timeout

I know how to pull Ens.MessageHeader, and EnsLib.HL7.Message but not sure how to match up the Message with the HL7 Acknowledgement received.

I have a stream that I read out until the end. I then append more content to the stream and want to read out only what has been added. How do I only read out the new contents of the stream? Essentially, I want to read a stream, record the end position, then once the stream is updated read the contents from that recorded position until at the new end. This stream needs to be kept intact for historical reference so cannot be cleared between reads. Also, it needs to be read out at these separate times in this context to provide progress updates to the user as the time between these reads could be

An Overview of Data Studio in Asset Management

For a long time I have wanted to learn the Django framework, but another more pressing project has always taken priority. Like many developers, I use python when it comes to machine learning, but when I first learned web programming PHP was still enjoying primacy, and so when it was time for me to pick up a new complicated framework for creating web applications to publish my machine learning work, I still turned to PHP. For a while I have been using a framework called Laravel to build my websites, and this PHP framework introduced me to the modern Model-View-Controller pattern of web

Example: I have an API using %CSP.REST, and I am using the internal port for development. But for production and approval, I put a reverse proxy using NGINX. Is this recommended? Is it an alternative?

Hi Community,

I have created global with below values , now I want to iterate programatically.

^Book("Auto1","Properties","Color")="Red"
^Book("Auto1","Properties","Color1")="Yellow"
^Book("Auto1","Properties","Model")="SUV"
^Book("Auto2","Owner")="Prashanth"
^Book("Auto2","Properties","Color")="Green"
^Book("Color")="Red"
^Book("Color1")="Red"

i have used below method but only printing last2 elements properly

ClassMethod Iterate()
{
set subscript = ""
for {
set subscript = $order(^Book(subscript))
quit:(subscript = "")
write !, "subscript=", subscript, ", value=", ^Book(subscript)
}
}

Thanks,

We're planning to use Production Validator for validating our system upgrade (2016.2.3 to 2024.2) , and we are trying to understand what kind of benchmarking or performance metrics others have observed during similar efforts.

Specifically, we are looking for a case study or real-world example that includes details like:

• How many messages were validated?
• How long did it take to create the temporary database from the source system?
• How long did it take to run the comparison on the destination system?

I am attempting to failover my TEST environment to the Backup, and I keep getting an error stating that 

06/01/25-18:47:54:516 (11864) 1 [Utility.Event] Primary startup failed, failed to read header of /archive/journal/MIRROR-IRISTEST-20250513.007 (file #63653)

however, when I go to /archive/journal/, I am not finding any record of MIRROR-IRISTEST-20250513.007 (file #63653)

to get out of this error message I have to restart what was the Primary and restart the Backup to get it back into a state that we can use it.
