Please help,

I'm using a SearchAndFetchRequest to retrieve a full SDA3 Container from the ACCESS gateway. The response is presented in the pResponse.SearchAndFetchGeneralResult.XMLData property. This property is of type string. I want to put the data from this property in a HS.SDA3.Container and then use this container is a dtl for translation purposes. My current data in the XMLData property is too large to fit in a string. Therefore I'm searching for a way to convert te data to a stream and that import the stream into my Container...

Staying home this year? Register for a live in-person or virtual class, and use our free online resources to see how to easily create data transformations or save storage space.

In a tag-based CSP page, I can define (e.g.):

<script method="Foo" language="cache" runat="server">

Is there any way to use this syntax to define an *instance* method (i.e., Method rather than ClassMethod) in the generated class?

I have a situation where I have a handful of classes which I need to copy to another Namespace (which uses a different RoutineDB) on the same instance, load it and compile it.

Can anyone help me come up with a command that will do this quickly and easily?   Perhaps something with extended reference?  

This is somewhat time sensitive so thank you in advance for your ideas!

Hi folks!

Just want to introduce you a new util to import CSV into IRIS - csvgenpy!

Install

USER>zpm "install csvgenpy"

Use:

do ##class(shvarov.csvgenpy.csv).Generate("file or url","table","schema")

Example:

USER>do ##class(shvarov.csvgenpy.csv).Generate("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datasciencedojo/datasets/master/titanic.csv","titanic","data")

This will create table and class data.titanic in IRIS and will load the data.  you can proof it with:

USER>:sql

[SQL]USER>>select * from data.titanic

[SQL]USER>>select * from data.titanic

1. select * from data.titanic

Hello,

I am quite new to the InterSystems world. I have one of my OBX 5 fields having this value "blood work was done<>tested positive for anemia<>tested negative for hepatitis". I have a lookup table "AnemiaResults" with a key of TESTED POSITIVE FOR ANEMIA. My issue is that since OBX 5 has other characters/text  (and OBX is a repeating segment) , I am unable to use the Exists function. Any idea how to tackle this? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

In this article, we’ll build a highly available IRIS configuration using Kubernetes Deployments with distributed persistent storage instead of the “traditional” IRIS mirror pair. This deployment would be able to tolerate infrastructure-related failures, such as node, storage and Availability Zone failures. The described approach greatly reduces the complexity of the deployment at the expense of slightly extended RTO.

Hi Everyone,

 I tried to send the Sample XML from Packet Sender to Intersystems IRIS TCP Inbound adapter for learning purpose.
I'm using Predefine d Class : EnsLib.XML.TCPService and the adapter is EnsLib.TCP.CountedInboundAdapter (it selected by Default.)
My sample XML file would be <Patient><Name>John,Williams</Name><MRN>12345</MRN></Patient>
I got an error like

Hi all,

I'm wondering if exists any command or method to replace a text using parameters.

In C# I use the Format property

var text = string.format("My name is {0} and I'm {1} years","Kurro","18")
// The value of text will be "My name is Kurro and I'm 18 years"

I've tried with this code... but it works only for the specific parameters

set text = "My name is {0}, and I'm {1} years"write$Replace($Replace(text,"{0}","Kurro"),"{1}",18)

is possible to do something for more args? I mean, use for a indeterminate number of args

A question for anyone using InterSystems technology:

What are the biggest challenges you’ve faced either trying to hire developers that know ObjectScript, or trying to train developers on ObjectScript?

• Are developers generally willing or resistant to the idea of learning ObjectScript?   Why?
• For developers trying to learn ObjectScript - what was that process like?   What were the main challenges there?
  • In-person learning?  
  • Online class? 
  • Documentation?  
  • What were your impressions?
• How did it compare to other languages?
• What would have made it easier to learn?
• How long did it

After any installs upgrades we get the following 

04/13/23-18:00:00:978 (18668) 0 [Utility.Event] d:\intersystems\healthshare\mgr\enslib\ (Database is readonly)
04/13/23-18:00:00:979 (18668) 0 [Utility.Event] d:\intersystems\healthshare\mgr\hslib\ (Database is readonly)

I think we must have before altered these to not read-only. 

Not sure if the isssue is by default 

-Running task as user with %ALL rather than SYS user

- Should the dbs be as default in the all backup list 

- Should these be not ro so it backs up without error? 

Following one package from the last contest I met a strange problem.
There was the requirement to install jupyter-notebook
I work on Windows and there was some old Python installed
No big surprise: Installation of jupyter-notebook failed
Therefore, the latest version of Python was installed fast.

Big disappointment: the installation of jupyter-notebook failed again!
Because the new installation of Python didn't upgrade the old one.
And also the environment variable PATH was not cleaned
This was not obvious immediately and took endless time and effort.

Several cycles of installation and

As you know ObjectScript has neither FOREACH system command nor system function.
But it has a wide room for creativity.

The task is to loop over a global or local array and do something FOR EACH element.

There are 2 possible solutions:

• creating a macro that generates the required code sequences
• creating an Extended Command to perform the action. Both ways are presented here. The macro is a generic and quite flexible solution and easy to adapt if required.

##; ZFOREACHMACRO ; macro definitions
##; %key = variable provide to loop trough array
##; %arr = the gobal or local array to be looped

Reviewing a client console log, I am finding the message:

Terminal disconnect: The specified network name is no longer available.
 

This message is repeated in the log dozens of times per day over the last month. The client has not raised a concern and our monitoring has not detected any issues with client ops. The client is not aware of any recent changes with their apps. I am not familiar with this message and whether this message is benign or whether there is any action required,

We are currently using different iterations of Ens.Director.EnableConfig items to start/stop objects within the Interoperability Namespace. We are looking for ways to minimize our downtime as we move from AIX to a new section of our Network and Red Hat Servers.

Besides using Ens.Director.EnableConfig item and waiting for a response, or just disabling the objects through the Namespace class file, is there a quicker way to stop Services and Operations to ensure the TCP disconnect is sent to those endpoints so we can move the networking rules to ensure they point to new servers?

You can use the system routine ^DBSIZE to estimate the backup file size (see also Note 1).

^DBSIZE estimates the file size of full, cumulative, and differential backups of the databases selected in the database backup list.

The database backup list is created from [System Administration] > [Configuration] > [Database Backup] > [Database Backup List] in the Management Portal.

For more information, please refer to the document below.

Hello everyone,

I am looking for a sort of REST interoperability adapter that can forward REST calls within HealthConnect. If necessary, we need to adjust the requests or responses.

For Fhir calls, we use the FHIR Interoperability Adapter. This works perfectly; a message comes in as HS.FHIRServer.Interop.Request, and a message HS.FHIRServer.Interop.Response goes out. I can make adjustments as needed to both the request and response. I am looking for the same functionality, but then for non-FHIR REST calls.

When I create a web application, the requests come in as %CSP.Request, and I can forward
