Hi,

I am in a situation where my container is on UTC time (as is the host). But I need to send a datetime to a machine in a specific time zone. Various languages have constructs for doing that, sometimes you need a library

python has the pytz library.

We prefer a solution which is ObjectScript only.

Hi I've got a service setup to query a sql server via ODBC.

I've got all the parameters etc setup and everything is ok

My Query is

SELECT TOP 1
CI.ClientID, 
Gender, 
DateOfBirth, 
MaritalStatus AS MartialStatusCode,
(SELECT CodeDescription FROM GenMaritalStatus WHERE Code =  MaritalStatus) AS Martial,
Ethnicity AS EnthnicityCode,
(SELECT CodeDescription FROM GenEthnicity WHERE Code = Ethnicity) AS Ethnicity,
Nationality AS NationalityCode,
(SELECT CodeDescription FROM GenNationality WHERE Code = Nationality) AS Nationality,
DateOfDeath,
CN.Surname AS Surname,
 ISNULL (CN.GivenName1, '')
 + ISNULL( CN.

Hi Guys,

I'm using the below to export a query result to excel file and the only file type is .csv (100) but the resulting has two problems,

first the row header is including the field type and second the resulting file is a tab delimited so columns aren't properly separated (see attached below) 

set st = ##class(%SQL.Statement).%New(2,"Sample")
set sql = "select ID, name from MyClass"
do st.%Prepare(.sql)
set type="csv"
  set rs = st.%Execute()
  do rs.%DisplayFormatted(type,"C:\Temp\report")
 

Thanks

Is it a good practice to set the MAXLEN value of %Library.String property type?  Will it lead to wasted storage if its not really using it?

For example, I have to store a 5 characters long string into the below str field. Which of the statement is recommended? 

Property str As %String;

vs

Property str As %String(MAXLEN="5");

UPD: check out the Greetings video here
Hi Community!
As you know, this year Global Summit is back in-person. We really want to see everyone there! 

Not all of the Community members can attend (me either!), so we decided to produce a cool VIDEO with Greetings from Our Community Members 🎥 
Let's join virtually this great event from all around the World!🌏 

⬆️ Upload in this challenge a short (2-3 sec) VIDEO of you saying "Hi from your country🙌" to our Community Members. So, we could combine it with the other videos from our members and present it on Global Summit 2022. You can also just send me a link to a shared file in DM.

Deadline: June 18, Friday, till the end of the day!

See you there!

Hello guys!

The Global Summit 2022 in Seattle ended just over a week ago but keynotes are already available for those who missed them while being on the premises or who couldn't attend this in-person event at all for some reason or another (or just for those who wish to refresh their memory and listen to them again).

Without further ado, the beginning of the Global Summit AKA the Greetings from the Community:

Enjoy watching all the keynotes from all three days of Global Summit 2022 via this YouTube playlist: 

Hi,

I am using IRIS for Windows (x86-64) 2019.1.1

I have.

1. Created a BS with SQL Inbound Adapter which successfully connects and gets rows from DB .

2. Created a request message is populated with results of SQL query.

3  Created a BP with HL7 Router + Routing Rule + Transformation + Send to Target (BO).

4 . Created BO sending HL7 to file.

i am getting the following error.

ERROR <Ens>ErrException: <PROPERTY DOES NOT EXIST>zOnRequest+1^EnsLib.MsgRouter.VDocRoutingEngine.1 *DocType,Test.SQLtoHL7Req -- logged as '-' number - @''

What am i missing

Thanks.

I just met a personal challenge translating my article to French.
Tough I had to learn it at school and could read and understand
famous literature (Sartre, Molière, Mauriac, Proust, Saint-Exupéry, Anouilh, ...) 
I missed the specific terms used with ISC technology.
Thanks to @Lorenzo Scalese my errors were corrected.
But no dictionary was able to answer. 
Especially as English is gender-neutral the individual gender in other languages is just undefined.
QUESTION:
- Is there anywhere a Dictionary in ISC to cover this

After a short (or too long) pause from the previous part here is a short recap of the next few days of the Global Summit 2022 in Seattle!

As before, each day started with the keynotes (which you should be able to watch tomorrow ). But unlike the keynotes on June, 21 the following day they were dedicated to Data Platform IRIS. As before, you can find the topics and the presenters in this announcement. Some of the notable speeches were delivered by Geoffrey Moore, Bestselling Author, Consultant, and Disruptive Technology Specialist

How would you like to be able to access the Web Terminal directly from your VSCode?

If you do your IRIS development in Visual Studio Code and wish you had a convenient way to get a terminal session on your server, take a look here:

A new VS Code extension leverages the popular and well-established WebTerminal package to bring you this experience.

If you like it, please vote for webterminal-vscode in the current contest. Voting closes at midnight on Sunday 5th.

Hey Developers,

Hello everyone! Don't miss the Developer Community Post Digest for June 2022.

Hey Developers! Here is a digest of new solutions and applications submitted to the InterSystems Open Exchange in June 2022.

The InterSystems IRIS has excellent support for encryption, decryption and hashing operations. Inside the class %SYSTEM.Encryption (https://docs.intersystems.com/iris20212/csp/documatic/%25CSP.Documatic…) there are class methods for the main algorithms on the market.

IRIS Algorithms and Encrypt/Decrypt types

As you can see, the operations are based on keys and include 3 options:

• Symmetric Keys: the parts running encrypt and decrypt operations share the same secret key.

In the June 2022 newsletter, see the new releases unveiled at the Global Summit—including cloud-based offerings! Plus, get the latest on performing analytics queries, check out the latest certification exam, and try the new documentation search features.

Hi Everyone,

              I am a very new to IRIS Object Script Development. There is a  usecase where I have to execute a .sh file from the object script. I am looking for examples for that, but what I find is the ways to execute the shell commands. Can you please point me to some examples executing a .sh file. Thanks in Advance

Hi developers. I often miss the ZPM program on a clean system. Nothing complicated? Take and install. And in one line? Especially in a docker container. There is a solution. I'm very happy with it;) Maybe the line can be shortened?

set $namespace="%SYS", name="DefaultSSL" do:'##class(Security.SSLConfigs).Exists(name) ##class(Security.SSLConfigs).Create(name) set url="https://pm.community.intersystems.com/packages/zpm/latest/installer" Do ##class(%Net.URLParser).Parse(url,.comp) set ht = ##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New(), ht.Server = comp("host"), ht.Port = 443, ht.Https=1, ht.

If one of your packages on OEX receives a review you get notified by OEX only own YOUR 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.

Developer Preview releases are now available for the 2022.2 version of InterSystems IRIS, IRIS for Health, and HealthShare Health Connect.

 This is the first in a series of releases that are part of the developer preview program. Future preview releases are expected to be updated biweekly and we will add features as they are ready.  This program allows us to get feedback on capabilities and enhancements as they're available.  You'll see below a list of enhancements that are targeted for 2022.2.  Some these are not included in the first developer preview.  Look for those over the coming weeks.

We recently migrated to IRIS. Before, the CACHE.EXE executable could be invoked from a batch file directly : 

C:\InterSystems\Cache\bin\cache.exe -s C:\InterSystems\Cache\mgr -U %SYS

This will display the following in console : 

Node: DESKTOP-8H4B321, Instance: CACHE

USER>

Additionally, the pipe instruction can be used to redirect some commands directly

echo write 50 | C:\InterSystems\Cache\bin\cache.exe -s C:\InterSystems\Cache\mgr -U %SYS

I am looking for the same thing in IRIS.

@Ming Zhou asked a great question in https://community.intersystems.com/post/how-get-all-properties-defined-… and the answer sums up exactly why ObjectScript is my favorite.

When I'm first describing ObjectScript or IRIS to someone I always explain that you can write a class, compile it, get a table, and work with your data from an object or relational perspective - whichever is most natural.

I have a table with a Varchar(max) column that I have created via the HealthShare SQL portal, and I see that in it's underlying class that column corresponds to a  %Stream.GlobalCharacter

When I try to do a text search on that column (referenced as cd.Code in the example below) I get an error

select * 
from DevTools_CodeAnalysis_tables.Code cd
inner join DevTools_CodeAnalysis_tables.MethodData mtd
on charindex( mtd.qualifiedRef,  cd.Code) > 0

It produces the error

 Scalar function CHARINDEX (arg2) not supported for stream fields

How do I search it?
 

Hi There,

I'm fairly new to ObjectScript/Ensemble and I'm sure I may be fundamentally misunderstanding how the %JSONImport/%JSONExport and XDATA mapping work and I was hoping you good folks could help me out.  I'm essentially trying to create an object that I can use to translate from one JSON schema to another. 

First my class:

Class SERVICESVCPKG.Model.AthenaAppointment Extends (%Persistent, %DynamicAbstractObject, %JSON.

Is it possible to mirror the same database on Iris and an older Ensemble instance?

Specifically to try a zero downtime upgrade

I am trying to pass %request.Data from my rest dispatch class to a production so that I can use it in by business operation.  I have created a message that has a property:

Property urlParameters As %String [multidimensional];

to get the data to the production. I am new to intersystems and multidimensional arrays/globals

dispatch class:

Kill parameters
Merge parameters = %request.Data
Set genericRequest = ##class(Core.API.V1.Msg.GenericRequest).%New()
Set genericRequest.

I'm hoping someone here has some tips. I'm trying to filter by d/t in a routing rule. Basically if before a specific d/t, send to one feed. If after, send to another. The d/t time is in a yyyymmddhhmmss format. I've tried a couple things but can't get it to work as expected. Any tips to accomplish this would be appreciated.

Hi All! We have recently updated the Exploring Healthcare Analytics with InterSystems exercise to a new version. Originally from a 2021 Virtual Summit experience lab, this exercise now focuses more specifically on using InterSystems IRIS Adaptive Analytics with InterSystems IRIS for Health. It features a new and improved data model and exercise to explore. Feel free to give it a try!
