Purpose

A few months ago I touched on a brief note on "Python JDBC connection into IRIS", and since then I referred to it more frequently than my own scratchpad hidden deep in my PC. Hence, here comes up another 5-minute note on how to make "Python ODBC connection into IRIS".

ODBC and PyODBC seem pretty easy to set up in a Windows client, yet every time I stumbled a bit somewhere on setting up an unixODBC and PyODBC client in a Linux/Unix-style server.

Hello,

I'm trying to upload file to SFTP server.  

I have access to SFTP server . 
My code is bellow 

Try {
Set sftp = ##class(%Net.SSH.Session).%New()

Set sc = sftp.AuthenticateWithUsername(username,password)
if 'sftp.Connect(host){
            Set status = $$$ERROR($$$GeneralError,"Cannot connect to sftp  ")
            Quit       
}
Set sc = sftp.OpenSFTP(.t)

If 'sftp.Disconnect() Write "Failed to logout",!

} Catch ex {
Set status=$$$ERROR($$$GeneralError,$ZE)
Quit
}

The output : $lb(5001,"Cannot connect to sftp "

What i'm doing wrong ?

Hi Community!

Do you know how to create workflow users and roles programmatically?
I use Docker for test deploy and I need to set up IRIS Interoperability using the install script.

Maybe do you know how to import/export already existing workflow users and roles?

Hello,

I want to deploy Iris Interoperability Production in multiple containers . The production has File Services that process files from EFS location. All the files being processed by multiple containers are in the same directory. The standard Adapter class does not have Check Complete option to lock a file so that other containers File Services looking in the same file path cannot process the same file.

I updated the Inbound File Adapter class to offer another Check Complete option LOCK that will lock the file until it is processed and archived.

Hi Devs!

Last weekend I had been testing the newborn csvgen module and was looking for a CSV file to test - thus I came across an interesting datafile on Data.World  with Game of Throne episodes statistics. Death statistics. These folks documented all the murders through all the 8 seasons and noted where, who, from what clan with what weapon had killed another one.

So I imported it and made an IRIS Analytics dashboard.

Don't worry, Jon,  with this dashboard we can figure out something ). See the details below.

Hello,

In the DTL, is there a way to set a value for the HL7 data element in the code section?

For example,
set target.SetValueAt("PID:3(k1).1)") = mrn (mrn is the value returned from the SQL query)

When I ran the test utility, I got this error message.

ERROR ErrException:
zTransform+27^testclass.TEST.1 *SetValueAt,EnsLib.HL7.Message -- logged as '-' number - @' set target.SetValueAt("PID:3(k1).1)") = mrn'

I tried both target.SetValueAt("PID:3(k1).1)") and target.GetValueAt("PID:3(k1).1)"). That didn’t make a difference. The code still error out.

The latest WebComponent-based, SB Admin 2-themed QEWD Monitor application now includes a cool D3-based viewer for visualising your IRIS or Cache Globals - see example below

This qewd-monitor-adminui application is automatically installed when you install QEWD on a Windows machine

Hello,

I'm working on integrating a Cache database into an existing .NET project of mine.  I'm trying to execute certain queries utilizing the Cache ODBC driver.  The first error I ran into was "[S1000] [Cache ODBC][State : S1000][Native Code 417] Access Denied".  The part that's throwing me for a loop though is that the application ran ~200 successful queries before I started getting that.  After some of those Access Denied errors, they turned into "[Cache ODBC][State : S1T00][Native Code 450] Request timed out due to user timeout".  This was all with the regular (2.5?) driver.

Hi

on this code

set reader=##class(%XML.Reader).%New()
    set statuscode=reader.OpenFile(file)
    if $$$ISERR(statuscode) {do $System.Status.DisplayError(statuscode) quit $$$NULLOREF}

I got this error "unable to open file 'https://www.musicxml.org/dtds/partwise.dtd'"

or using the xml schema wisard i got the error  https is active but no configuration found.

where do I have configure it?

After all these years of doing basic Ensemble work, I am just beginning to venture into using Cache Tables instead of either Data Lookup tables, or what I know of Outside SQL tables using JDBC.  I have several Cache SQL tables that I am building for a project I am working on.  

• I was wondering if it was possible to use a SQL call to look up a value against a Cache SQL table  within a Business Rule? 
• Or is this something that I would have to build a custom function for?

Many times it is necessary copy or send files to your docker container instance.

In my case was with IRIS JDBC driver.

Docker has this recipe for this (credits to https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cp/):

docker cp [OPTIONS] CONTAINER:SRC_PATH DEST_PATH|-
docker cp [OPTIONS] SRC_PATH|- CONTAINER:DEST_PATH

But to copy you need your container name. Write this command for this:

docker ps

In my, my-iris is the container name.

If you need to know file location into your docker file system too, write:

1. To go to bash of your docker instance: docker exec -it my-iris /bin/bash.
2. Write cd .

I want to receive an EDI file through Applicability Statement 2(AS2) transport and send back the acknowledgement to AS2 using Cache ObjectScript.

Previously I used to transfers the EDI files using FTP.

Can anyone please help on this.

Thanks in advance.

Have tried this post https://community.intersystems.com/post/how-execute-multiple-query-or-script-sql-management-studio
but still got an error

I have a table with 4 column: MRN (primary key), Name, DOB, and Gender. I want to bring in the values on all of the columns into a DTL. Currently, I declare variables for each of the columns and using 3 select statements.

  &sql(SELECT Name INTO :Name FROM osuwmc_RQGPatient.DataTable WHERE MRN=:MRN)

  &sql(SELECT DOB INTO :DOB FROM osuwmc_RQGPatient.DataTable WHERE MRN=:MRN)

  &sql(SELECT Gender INTO :Gender FROM osuwmc_RQGPatient.DataTable WHERE MRN=:MRN)

Is there a way to do this in a single select statement?

Dear All, 

I am currently working on a project to record ORU^R01 into a global for a particular set of tests.

I have multiple OBX repeats that need to go into a specific fields withing one row/ record on the global.

I am having trouble finding a way to either count or loop though the OBX's correctly in ObjectScript often with the counter being undefined.

I have done this this way, as I am building upon an existing class to populate this global.

The latest iteration of my obx looping code is below:

// handle repeating obx's by setting count of value    
            set segcnt = pMsg.

Some time ago I got a WRC case transferred where a customer asks for the availability of a raw DEFLATE compression/decompression function built-in Caché.

When we talk about DEFLATE we need to talk about Zlib as well, since Zlib is the de-facto standard free compression/decompression library developed in the mid-90s.

Zlib works on particular DEFLATE compression/decompression algorithm and the idea of encapsulation within a wrapper (gzip, zlib, etc.).

About regulations

Personal data privacy regulations have become an indispensable requirement for projects dealing with personal data. The compliance with these laws is based on 4 principles:

1. Compliance with the rights of the holder of personal data;
2. Governance of personal data assets;
3. Privacy by Design and by Default;
4. Data protection.

Solution Consultants focus primarily on deploying high volume interfaces and interoperability software.

I've got a REST service that I can access via a browser. I can get it to take HTML tags as data and display it back to me (so I know the REST part is working). So if I send it this:

http://MyServer:57772/TestArea/rest/TestQuery?UUID=1&RTX=RTX123456&CareType=Palliative
 

Then I can pick out the data and tell it to display in the browser, which is great but what I really want to do is put the data into a string and send to a business process that will do lots of looking up but eventually return a URL that my REST service will then redirect the browser to.

Hi All,

I have created a custom method into persistent class to call vendor Rest API from Ensemble that is working fine through Terminal, but my concern is:

I want to call only if  Error, Warning or Alert are generated. Is there any way that it would call automatically to send that Logs records through API or from where I need to call custom method of persistent class.

I also tried to put that persistent class method from Ens.Util.Log class but it's calling multiple time automatically.

Thanks,

Asif

Sometimes you need quickly and easily import data into IRIS. For this, an IRIS import manager has been developed.

This application allows you to import JSON data and also provides a really simple interface for transferring data from MongoDB collections to IRIS globals. It has never been so easy.

Let's look at examples.

Import JSON

Suppose we have data in JSON format and we want to import it into IRIS. To do this, you just need to specify the global name and insert the data. After import, you will see the imported data. If global exists data will be overwritten.

Globals as a Graph Data Structure in Python

How to use the IRIS Native API + Python to see globals as a Graph Network Chart.

Iris Globals

Reading the documentation these topics are related to globals:

• A global consists of a set of nodes (in some cases, only one node), identified by subscripts.
• Each node can contain a value.
• ObjectScript includes functions to iterate through the nodes of a global and quickly access values.
• A global is automatically stored in the database. When you assign a value to a node of a global variable, the data is written immediately to the database.

Hello,

How can I use ISC_DATA_DIRECTORY once IRIS runs inside a container? Some background...

We plan to deploy multiple containers running the same Health Connect IRIS Interoperability production in containers. So far we use docker run to start a container with ISC_DATA_DIRECTORY individual per container inside a efs that gets mapped using -v.
