Sometimes it is necessary to transfer or migrate data and data schema from Postgres to IRIS. There are currently a few options for doing this, but the two most popular options are using DBeaver (https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/DBeaver) or SQLGateway. The first will be demonstrated in this article and the second is presented in an excellent article by Robert Cemper, DB Migration using SQLgateway (https://community.intersystems.com/post/db-migration-using-sqlgateway), see in this article how to perform this migration using DBeaver:

5 years ago, on December 19, 2013, the ESA launched an orbital telescope called Gaia. Learn more about the Gaia mission on the official website of the European Space Agency or in the article by Vitaly Egorov (Billion pixels for a billion stars).

However, few people know what technology the agency chose for storing and processing the data collected by Gaia. Two years before the launch, in 2011, the developers were considering a number of candidates (see “Astrostatistics and Data Mining” by Luis Manuel Sarro, Laurent Eyer, William O’Mullane, Joris De Ridder, pp. 111-112):

• IBM DB2,
• PostgreSQL,
• Apache Hadoop,
• Apache Cassandra and
• InterSystems Caché (to be more precise, the Caché eXTreme Event Persistence technology).

Comparing the technologies side-by-side produced the following results (source):

The first four will probably sound familiar even to schoolchildren. But what is Caché XEP?

I'm using this Dockerfile to build .Net Gateway with my PEX BS. It works fine. If I change the image reference here to store/intersystems/iris-community:2021.2.0.617.0 in line 8 (so update from 2020.2 to 2021.2) it fails to build with:

Hi Community,

I have created persistent classes for source, target XSDs and completed DTL. When I tested in DTL window by passing source xml it is generating below target xml as result.

DTL result:

<root>
  <CaptureSource>2</CaptureSource>
  <Document>
    <Description>1235@TEST.COM.Message.ReportType</Description>
    <EventDate>1489@TEST.COM.Message.EventDateZ</EventDate>

    <FileContent>1142@TEST.COM.Message.TextBlock</FileContent>

Here I am expecting value of source xml , but it is showing reference

Hello everyone,

I am having a challenge with the IRIS community version in Docker with wsl2. Host machine is Win 11 and the IRIS/Ubuntu image is Ubuntu-20.04 from running 'wsl -l -v.

I am not able to reach the WebPortal in IRIS nor the Super User port. docker ps -a = containers.intersystems.com/intersystems/iris-community:2021.1.0.215.3   "/tini -- /iris-main"   3 weeks ago   Up 26 hours (healthy)   0.0.0.0:1972->1972/tcp, 2188/tcp, 53773/tcp, 0.0.0.0:52773->52773/tcp, 54773/tcp   iris

I am looking for a way to find all properties defined in any given class through coding, including those inherited from parent class(s). In case of inherited properties, I would like to know from which class etc.

A related question: XML adaptor provides a way to export xml schema for a class. Is there a similar method for JSON adaptor to generate a JSON schema for a class?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello Community,

to return data from the OnPage() method of a %CSP.Page I used to simply write out the value of a %DynamicArray e.g. via

write tResponse.%ToJSON()

and return $$$OK afterwards.

Large objects bigger than 4MB result in an exception when trying to create return values using this way. What is best practice for returning values as JSON, especially if values exceeding the capcity of the %String class are to be expected? I saw that it is possible to write data to a file with e.g.:

set tmp = tResponse.%ToJSON("/opt/home/tmp/test_stream.txt")

Am I supposed to do this and afterwards

When I installed the IRIS 2021.2 Community Edition, I found some Globals, which seem to be set for the Intersystems Ensemble and DeepSee products. For me that is an annoying design error in those products and only confusing my developers.

As I do not want to use these, I tried to delete them, because they interfere in the list of globals mixed with our own Globals.

But for several of the EnsEdi Globals I get an error message telling me, they can't be deleted, because they are wrong.

Is there a way to get rid of them? Or do I have to wait for a new IRIS version?

We are using the out-of-the-box  IHE components to exchange CCDs with an external system. A requirement to audit the outbound CCDs has arisen.

Is there an existing report that will show these ? If not, how can we audit these?

We are running HealthShare on Linux Redhat via Azure.

A couple of days ago, the Azure server rebooted. Which we were unaware of. 

Resulting in the Instance being in a downed status.

In the short term I put together a quick script to check the status, if it is down to restart it.

However, before I go down that road, I thought it would be best to inquire if there is a much better and more streamlined solution?

In a nutshell I just want to check and see if the Instance is up or in a state such as  down or hung then start it.

I attached my spaghetti code, full disclosure I am not a scripting guru so I

Is there any recommended KPI's we should be using to monitor our IRIS configurations in Azure?

I started some development with the IRIS 2020.4 version and did not continue it for some months.

Now I just wanted to continue, but saw the license is not valid anymore.

Is there still a possibility to upgrade to 2021.2 community edition and to recover the globals from the old edition without having a valid license key?

How to execute it from the command line? I am able to use SQL in Management Portal, but I need to do it in Unix

I have a user value set for an HL7 component that was removed from the source message.  How can I pull that value for use in a Routing Rule suppression logic?  Or do I have to create a custom class in order to do so?

Hi,

We a currently looking at a way of securing any future REST API's using OAuth2, where the Authorisation Server (OAuth2) and Resource Server would be on the same server.

However, as we have mirrored environment the Resource Server, and therefore the Authorisation Server, need work with a Virtual IP Address and be able to failover to either of the mirror member servers.

Is that possible with OAuth2 and if so what are the best practices for this?

Any advise or guidance much appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi Guys,

I was testing the Zen report from Samples namespace ( ZENReports.PageLayouts) by changing the DEFAULTMODE  from PDF to xlsx and html and noticed that each time I get different output and fields! I thought that the output should be the same and the only difference would be the report format, or am I missing something? try yourself and you will see.

Hi all,

I am testing asynchronous Bulk Data retrieve with a large EHR vendor. When I retrieve the bulk data, they are returning ndjson (CONTENT-TYPE of "application/fhir+ndjson; charset=utf-8"). If I attempt to process that content using JSON functions - I get

ERROR #5035: General exception Name 'Parsing error' Code '3' Data ''

For example, the following generates the error

s objArray={}.%FromJSON(quickStreamOut)

The error makes sense in that ndjson is not a valid json format (I assume at least).

But how then should ndjson be parsed in COS?

How can we strip a non-breaking space (hexadecimal code "C2A0")?

The other spaces like $c(9) and $c(20) should not be stripped along with that.

I would like to create a toolbar button in Cache Studio. After clicking on it, it would run a custom command (eg: to execute a routine that will clean a global).

I took a look at dialog that is shown after right clicking on a toolbar in Studio, then choosing "Customize" but AFAIK there is nothing there that allow such a thing.

I know it's possible to customize menu items by extending %Studio.SourceControl.Base class, is there something similar for toolbars ?

Here is some base code example (based on Danny Wijnschenk answer) :
