Introduction

This article attempt to summarize and update on the exchanges in this post. Please feel free to comment.
ObjectScript is based on MUMPS, a programming language dating back to 1966. At the time, and for quite a long period, memory and cpu resources were scarce, as was terminal screen space, and a very concise (and easily decodable) syntax was preferred (as, for example in C). Nowadays,  we no longer have the same memory and screen limitations,  and code readability and maintainability is far more important.

Hi,

How can I effectively unit test a Business Process Language(BPL) that incorporates three code activities calling methods from distinct ObjectScript classes?.

Appreciate any insights or examples.

Thanks,

Nimisha

Background

In 2021, I participated as an InterSystems mentor in a hackathon, where a newcomer to FHIR asked me if there was a tool to transform generic JSON data containing basic patient information into FHIR format. I informed her that I didn't know anything like that, unfortunately.

But that idea stays in my mind...

Several months later, in 2022, I came up with an idea to experiment: to train a named entity recognition (NER) to identify FHIR elements into generic texts.

I am exporting data from Cache using the SQL export wizard. This is on a docker image of Cache hosted on a Linux server.
I select my database, schema, and table, make sure that all columns are being exported, check other settings, and then finish the export.
All server settings look correct and permissions are rwe on the directory. I have tried various directories, including a system level directory. I tried creating the file before I do the export in case there was an issue with creating the files, and I also made sure the created files had rwe permisisons.

Striking a Balance Between Health Analytics and Engaging Features

In today's digital era, health and lifestyle apps have flooded the market, promising a wide array of benefits from fitness tracking to nutrition planning and focusing on trendy features, such as step counting, calorie tracking, and habit monitoring. While  the surge in app development is undoubtedly a positive sign of society's growing interest in health and wellness features can be engaging and motivate users to adopt healthier lifestyles, they often lack the depth required for serious health analytics.

According Wikipedia a mind map is a diagram used to visually organize information into a hierarchy, showing relationships among pieces of the whole. It is often created around a single concept, drawn as an image in the center of a blank page, to which associated representations of ideas such as images, words and parts of words are added. Major ideas are connected directly to the central concept, and other ideas branch out from those major ideas.

Hello,

As Intersystems Cache for Windows comes with a custom Apache version (2.4.52) and has some security risks, so not advised to be used for Production servers/environments. I want to install the new version of Apache (2.4.58) and replace it with the built-in version of it. Is there an easy and convenient way to perform this upgrade? My target is to completely replace the built-in version and replace it with a new version so that it passes the security scan.

Here is the link to the security risk mentioned by Intersystems:

Hi Developers!

We are happy to present the bonuses page for the applications submitted to the InterSystems FHIR and Digital Health Interoperability Contest 2024!

Hey Community,

Here is a digest of the Developer Community videos on InterSystems Developers YouTube Channel in January 2024:

I created this application considering how to convert images such as prescription forms into FHIR messages

It recognizes the text in the image through OCR technology and extracts it, which is then transformed into fhir messages through AI (LLA language model).

Finally, sending the message to the fhir server of IntereSystems can verify whether the message meets the fhir requirements. If approved, it can be viewed on the select page.

The architect of the JSON schema (MS) asked if IRIS could  perform schema validation. I asked on Discord objectscript channel how we could validate a Dynamic Object against a JSON schema. Dmitry Maslennikov replied that probably the easiest way would be to use python, but it would require converting ObjectScript JSON to Python dict.

I refer to this as my first real use case for Embedded Python, because previous examples I had tried I could have implemented in ObjectScript just as easily as in Python.

Hi folks!

Sometimes building an images via docker-compose.yml can take significant time.

And often after a minute or two of waiting it turns out that ports listed in docker-compose are busy and you need to start building process again with different ports or to turn down processes that took it.

Is there a way to check ports listed in docker-compose BEFORE starting the image baking process?

How do you deal with this problem?

Hi Community,

Watch this video to learn how to create new business services and business operations in an HL7 V2 production in InterSystems products:

⏯ Creating HL7 V2 Production Components

Sometimes we need to convert FHIR message to HL7 V2, e.g. to register a patient to the PACS system.
In this article, I will explain the steps to achieve the desired by using IRIS FHIR Server production.

Below are the steps we need to follow:

1. Make sure FHIRServer production is started.
2. Register Business Service with FHIRServer endpoint.
3. Define Business Processes to convert FHIR message to SDA and then Convert SDA to HL7 v2.
4. Post JSON resource to FHIRServer endpoint and get HL7 V2 response.

Let's review the steps in detail.
 

Step 1. Make sure FHIRServer production is started

Open the production page and make sure Production is started. In the next step, we need to make sure business service HS.FHIRServer.Interop.Service is registered with FHIRServer

We return with our example of using the FHIR Adapter, in this article we are going to review how we can configure it in our IRIS instances and what the result of the installation is.

The steps taken to configure the project are the same as indicated in the official documentation, you can review them directly here. Well, let's get to work!

Installation

As you can see in the project associated with the article, we have our IRIS instance deployed in Docker, so the main part of the initial configuration will be done in the Dockerfile.

Hi community.

I have an API that is deployed in my production (business service) and it calls to a business process to retrieve the information that is requested.

The problem that I have is that the calls are queued and it's creating a bottleneck 

The business process is taking more time than needed.

Is possible to configure the BP to process parallely the requests?

I'm thinking to increase the pool parameter, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea.

Best regards 

Hi Community

This document mainly enriches the content of the previous article and introduces the use of the application.

Perhaps you have already read the previous article, but I still want to say,
After completing the initialization operation (including model creation and training), the Fhir HepatitisC Predict application then predicts HepatitisC

First

You need to input some information on the application, of course, only the results of some checks, not including privacy data.

Looking at enabling long file paths (see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/maximum-file-pat…) on some Windows machines - does anyone know offhand if IRIS plays well with this in all respects?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone already dealt with this issue:
"System has been suspended for over X seconds, exceeding the maximum duration specified. Allowing system activity to resume. Any ongoing backup has presumably failed. Next InterSystems IRIS backup must be a full one"

our backup system "Commvault" is automatic, how do you tell it once you get this message that the next backup should be full?

thanks,

Eyal

Hi

Where is hl7 data and how to access after data coming through TCP Service?

The data is automatically saved? In database or queue or cache? How to access from ObjectScript? Any documented example?

Thank you!

We are excited to announce a new part of InterSystems documentation that makes it easier to upgrade InterSystems IRIS® data platform, InterSystems IRIS® for Health™, or HealthShare® Health Connect. The Upgrade Impact Checklist at https://docs.intersystems.com/upgrade shows you all the things you need to consider – and only the things you need to consider – in an upgrade between any two versions.

A class (and routine) definition can sometimes differ from it's compiled state.
When such a thing occurs, a "+" sign will be shown in the tab of the file opened in Studio.

I would like to do the same check programmatically.

For routines, it's very simple : 

set routine=##class(%Routine).%New(name)        
write routine.UpToDate

For classes, I could not find the equivalent. The only solution I found so far is to compare the compilation date and definition date :

set classCompiled = ##class(%Dictionary.CompiledClass).%OpenId(name)            
set classDefinition = ##class(%Dictionary.

Any ideas on how I can easily de identify production messages so that I can use them in TEST? 

Hi.

How can I pass a large string to classmethod params (e.g. large pictures) without getting MAXSTRING error?

Hi,

we need to take backup from alpha to dev environment on daily basis by automatic. Anyone please help?

Is it possible to authenticate an xDBC (ODBC/JDBC) connection to InterSystems IRIS via (a 3rd party) OAuth server?

For REST APIs this is possible, but could this be achieved with OAuth? 

Out-of-the-box the ODBC/JDBC Drivers don't seem to have this option, but maybe some custom code could enable this? perhaps via Delegated Authentication and some OAuth classes customization, or some other way?

Has anyone done this already and can share how it was implemented, or someone with some guideline suggestions?
