Hey Community!

We're excited to introduce a new way to interact with the Developer Community AI — you can now have a real conversation with it!

Instead of just asking one-off questions, you can chat with DC AI in a more natural, back-and-forth format. This way, whether you're exploring InterSystems technologies, debugging code, or learning something new, DC AI is here to help, just like a fellow developer.

I'm looking for some existing solutions to compare 2 global structures.

- by subscripts
- if subscripts match then by content.

I was wondering if anyone had a way to automate creating the Query String for a FHIR Request?

Using HS.FHIRServer.Interop.Request in my development I have to specify the following...

I was wondering.... if my source had variable number of fields if there was a way to automate the build for the QueryString when doing a Patient Search?

Whats the significance of creating an Index with Data Keyword in Index

Hi fellow developers!

Curious if you guys use CreatedAt and LastUpdated properties in your classes?

Created to stamp when the record was created and LastUpdated when it was last updated. Where it can be useful - almost everywhere )) I find it convenient in records sorting (e.g. by creation or last update), in sync (with other systems), and so on, for better analytics.

Do you use it all the time for all the classes?

If don't, why not? What do you use instead?

What property type do you use - %TimeStamp? %DateTime?

What is the best practice to have CreatedAt filled automatically during creation and LastUpdated on every successful save (guess it could be in %OnSave)?

Please share your experience /thoughts?

The below code is not working. its unable retrieve Record count and merge files

Class Util

{

ClassMethod zPyRecordCount(inputfile) As %Integer [ Language = python ]

{

import pandas as pd

import iris

import io

try:

df = pd.read_csv(inputfile, sep='|')

recordcount=len(df.index)

sys.stdout.write(len(df.index))

return recordcount

except Exception as e:

return 0

}

Hi noble devs!

Just building a simple frontend->JSON->IRIS backend story, and figured that IRIS while importing via %JSON.Adaptor wants JSON fields to match property names, meaning even should match the case. Like:

{ name: "John", 

surname: "Doe"}

will have issues while saving the dynamic object to a class Sample.Person with:

Can someone point me to learning resources / documentation for Intersystems Terminal? I have scoured YouTube, Intersystems documentation, and the internet. Many of the Object Script commands I found don't work (and that are listed here) do not work in the version of terminal that I have:

I was wondering what best practice was for using macros in Embedded Python, i.e. iris.execute('$$$MACRO()') or something else. Does anyone have insight into this?
