Hi Community,

You probably have already seen this abbreviation SSO on different InterSystems sites: Community, Learning Portal, Global Masters, etc. It basically stands for Single Sign-On. This means that you need only one set of login and password and you can access all the Developer Ecosystem resources.

Hi, 

I am trying to get the API Manager up and running. 

I have enabled the application and IAM user and changed password.

when we run the iam_setup.sh I get the following.

I have check on Iris management portal , but could see no errors.

Hi Guys,

is there any sample I can use for Images, I'm just looking for a very simple one where I can have an upload control to upload images & image control to show them?

Thanks

You may have already heard that, starting with IRIS and HealthShare HealthConnect 2023.2 versions, the internal Apache Server will be removed from the default installation, so it will be necessary to have an external application server such as Apache Server or NGINX.

In this article I am going to proceed to install a HealthShare HealthConnect 2023.1 so that it works with a pre-installed Apache Server. For this I will use a virtual machine on which I have installed an Ubuntu 22.04.

Installing Apache Server

If one of your packages on OEX receives a review you get notified by OEX only of YOUR own package.   
The rating reflects the experience of the reviewer with the status found at the time of review.   
It is kind of a snapshot and might have changed meanwhile.   
Reviews by other members of the community are marked by * in the last column.

I also placed a bunch of Pull Requests on GitHub when I found a problem I could fix.    
Some were accepted and merged, and some were just ignored.     
So if you did a major change and expect a changed review just let me know.

Hi,

I'm trying out VS Code with IRIS for Health 2023.2 (not available in above dropdown) in a local container.  I can open read-only files in the Objectscript viewer and have a local folder connected to the correct namespace.  However, when I make changes and try the "import and compile" option, I get:

ERROR #16006: Document <filepath> name is invalid

The first four chars of <filepath> appear to have been truncated

Here is my settings.json

{

    "security.workspace.trust.untrustedFiles": "open",

    "workbench.colorTheme": "InterSystems Default Dark",

    "intersystems.servers": {

Hi,
just want to know if indexes in IRIS / SQL are autobuilding.

I define an index in a table and then i costantly do a lot of insert/delete in that table. Will i face index problem? Do i need to rebuild it often?

Thanks

Programming and languages

Being a programmer nowadays is basically the geek version of being a polyglot. Of course, most of us here, in the InterSystems Community, “speak ObjectScript”. Howeever, I believe this wasn’t the first language for many people. For instance, I had never heard about it prior to getting the appropriate training at Innovatium.

Methods written in ObjectScript can use pass-by-reference arguments to return information to the caller. Python doesn’t support pass-by-reference arguments, so Embedded Python in IRIS doesn’t support them either. That's it, that's the end of the post, hope you liked it. 😉 But wait, what about the Classic Rock & Roll?

Hi,
i'm working with an instance of IRIS that does a lot of integration (HS) and i need to schedule all the cleaning jobs for the productions.

Is there a way to "clone" the purge task for all the namespaces?

Is it possible to abort system start during SYSTEM^%ZSTART?

If some conditions are not met, I want to shut down IRIS instead of continuing with the startup.

Hi Community,

Good afternoon,

first thank you from heart and mind, mind and heart; for reading, thinking, reflecting, responding, and above all explaining a possible solution and/or documentation to address this doubt.

We would need a way to get inside a SOAP Web Service the SAML Assertion, and then, send it directly to the endpoint throught a SOAP Operation.

Currently we have researched and developed how to get the SAML Assertion with the following code:

When developing interoperability productions, it might be useful to have settings outside of a Business Host. The primary reason is when you need a setting to affect several different Business Hosts and want to guarantee that the value is the same. While System Default Settings can be used to propagate settings for Business Hosts, they can be changed by overriding the value on a BH level (although the advantage of Business Host settings set via SDS is that they don't need custom code which our current approach requires).
Another reason is when you need to affect non-setting parts of the Business Host configuration (PoolSize, Enabled, etc.)

We will be adding an env setting to a production.

In this article, I will show you how one can easily create and read Microsoft Word documents using InterSystems IRIS with the leverage power of embedded Python.

Setup

First things first, let’s install the Python module called python-docx. There are a lot of modules to write MS Word files in Python. However, this one is the easiest one to use.

Just execute the following command on the terminal:

!pip3 install python-docx

If you are working with Docker, like I do, just add the following line to a Dockerfile

ENV PIP_TARGET=${ISC_PACKAGE_INSTALLDIR}/mgr/python RUN pip3 install python-docx

Let's have a round of Code Golf!

String rotation is when you take a word and move some of its letters to the end of the word, so the first letter becomes the second letter, the second letter becomes the third, and so on. Last letter becomes first. Rotation can happen only in one direction →. Your task is to write a method that will receive two strings. It then must return an integer value of how many times needed to rotate the strings to be equal. As usual shortest solution wins.

Input

"hello", "llohe"

Output

3

I have a problem with connecting to IRIS via ODBC on Apple Silicon.

I installed unixodbc with brew, and downloaded ODBC-2023.1.0.229.0-macos.tar.gz from the community github repo.

After setting up odbc.ini so that libirisodbcur6435.so that was just downloaded is used as the driver,  isql fails as follows:

$ isql -v sampleodbc

[08S01][unixODBC][Iris ODBC][State : 08S01][Native Code 459]

[libirisodbcur6435.so]

Connection via irisconnect failed:

getaddrinfo(, , 0, 0) failed in s_TCPConnect, reason = nodename nor servname provided, or not known.

 

[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLConnect

Hi,

I trying to find out the procedure to kill off a currently printing Cache job.

The user wants to cancel the job as they put the wrong start date. The start date was set to be generated from the default date of 1 Jan 1900.

As the start date was such a long time ago, the report generation would take a long time.

I think the printing uses this "production" on the print server:

Report.Print.Service.CachePrintService

  -> Report.Print.Process.Request

  -> Report.Print.Operation.PrintCacheReport

Have just deployed IRIS in Azure and when accessing the filesystem through SSH I just can't see the ISC folder through the WSL ubuntu user, what am I missing here?

As I want to create new folders and use the same in test productions.
the needed directories are created in /home/azureuser but the same is not visible in IRIS file system

Example:

Method Execute (args...) As %Status {
...
 #dim statement as %SQL.Statement
 set statement = ##class(%SQL.Statement).%New(2)
 set statement.%Dialect = "CACHE"
 do statement.prepare(query)
    
 #dim rs as %SQL.StatementResult
 set rs = statement.execute(args...)

My questions are: 1) how do I get the size of **args **2) how to get all values of **args **3) is it possible to modify the args?

Any suggestions on a way to indicate when a patient encounter is in an ‘Observation’ status** in Clinical Viewer? Clients would like to be able to distinguish between true ‘Inpatient’ or ‘Emergency’ status and ‘Observation,’ especially given that encounters often cycle between various statuses.

HealthShare only allows for the following ‘encounter type’ values, and anything that does not match will be translated to Outpatient by HealthShare

• I = Inpatient
• O = Outpatient
• E = Emergency patient
• C = Community
• N = Not applicable or New born
• P = PreAdmit
• G = Generated
• S = Silent

In over a decade of using Ensemble/HealthShare, we have been able to use a single message type (doc type) for all HL7 ADT event types. We now have an application for which the HL7 segment sequence is different for A03s than it is for other ADT event types. The content of the segments is the same across event types; only the segment sequence differs. The data transformation has to do some custom logic, so we can't just use the "copy" variety of the transformation Create property.

Hi All,

I am trying to create a production from a script(routine). 

I am using the below way to create an empty production

Set oProd=##class(Ens.Config.Production).%New()
Set oProd.Name="Test.NewProduction"
Set oProd.ActorPoolSize=1
Set status=oProd.%Save()

But when i tried to start the production, i am getting an error as "Test.NewProduction" class does not exists. 

Is there any other way to create the production via routine or terminal using commands as above?

Hi everyone,

Is there a way to convert svg to jpg or png? thanks.

@Jeff Fried 

Hi Jeff,

I reviewed the Ensemble 2018 support documentation
https://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KE…

And I did not find a restriction on the use of Ensemble 2018 installed on Docker with Openshift, but I received information that Intersystems would not support this installation case. That is true?

This would help us with the transition to IRIS as I carry out the migrations.

Thank you very much for your help
