I have a production with a HLv2 HTTP Listener. For demo purposes, I need to send HL7 messages directly from a browser. Here is an example (React/typescript):

const message = "MSH...";
const args: RequestInit = {
      method: "POST",
      mode: "no-cors",
      body: message
 }

const response = await fetch(IRIS_SERVER_HL7_HTTP, args);
// await checkResponseAsync(response);
return await response.text();

I would like guidance on the most effective approach for converting UTC time, such as "2023-11-24T14:00:00.000Z," to the format "202311241400," while taking into account the 1-hour time difference during UK summer time. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Developers!

Often solutions with InterSystems IRIS BI can turn into a quite big solution with dozens of pivots and dashboards.

With every new IRIS BI solution release we can add changes that could influence the behavior of existing pivots or dashboards so they stop working. For example if we change the dimension or measure name, forget deploying some cubes or subject areas, conduct refactoring via mass renaming of cubes and its elements etc some widgets could stop functioning.

The solution is to test (manually?) every widget in every dashboard if the MDX queries are working.

Good morning:

Thank you very much for reading the doubt and above all thank you very much for answering.

Given the following use case:

If we have a Destination Service that through a HTTP GET by REST gives us a certain JSON response, where it should be noted that it is a list of objects where each object in the list does NOT have a key:

Hello,

We have recently encountered an issue which requires us to define a new identity field (named xMDA in the attached example), instead of using the default ID field.

We need to run an SQL query which unfortunately overrides the ID field (see attached image) but we still need to be able to access the ID field in said query.

We are however unable to get the attached solution to work. Is there a way to get around this issue?

I'm trying to extract data from an IRIS database into SQL server with SSIS using the ODBC driver: InterSystems ODBC35 (ODBC-2023.1.0.229.0-win_x64.exe)

I have Unicode turned off in the ODBC settings. 
I'm getting strange results - with some tables the SSIS ODBC connector will work but the ADO.net connector - using the same ODBC driver will. For other tables it's the other way round. The ADO.net sees the data as unicode and won't allow me to insert it into a non unicode table but ODBC will be fine.

In some cases I'm getting data that just looks screwed up  

Anyone had similar issues?

Dear experts,
Please, could you help me?

Im trying import a global:

ACB> K ^GlobalManualSend
ACB> D $System.OBJ.Load("C:\Users\BNAPC\GlobalManualSend.xml")
ACB> Set sc = ##class(%Studio.Project).InstallFromGbl("^GlobalManualSend","fv")

But is returning a error about version:

Please, could you help me about it?

Thank you.

Trying to gather basic code examples written in ObjectScript and realized it's probably easiest to ask the people who know what they're doing!

I'm looking for examples of the following five prompts all in ObjectScript:

Prompt 1. Write a function that partitions the array into two subarrays: one with all even integers, and the other with all odd integers. Return your result in the following format:

[[evens], [odds]]

Prompt 2. Create a function that computes the hamming distance between two strings

Prompt 3.

InterSystems announces its first preview, as part of the developer preview program for the 2023.2 release.  This release will include InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS for Health.

Highlights

Many updates and enhancements have been added in 2023.2 and there are also brand-new capabilities, such as Time-Aware Modeling, enhancements of Foreign Tables, and the ability to use Ready-Only Federated Tables. Some of these features or improvements may not be available in this current developer preview.

Another important topic is the removal of the Private Web Server (PWS) from the installers.

Please help,

I'm using a SearchAndFetchRequest to retrieve a full SDA3 Container from the ACCESS gateway. The response is presented in the pResponse.SearchAndFetchGeneralResult.XMLData property. This property is of type string. I want to put the data from this property in a HS.SDA3.Container and then use this container is a dtl for translation purposes. My current data in the XMLData property is too large to fit in a string. Therefore I'm searching for a way to convert te data to a stream and that import the stream into my Container...

In this brief article I would like to share a few strategies to run objectscript code in debug mode.

How to enter debug mode

There are two ways to launch the debugger.

Let's suppose that we have to debug the following method

1. put the cursor on the first line of you method
2. menu Debug -> Enable/Disable breakpoint (F9)

In a tag-based CSP page, I can define (e.g.):

Is there any way to use this syntax to define an *instance* method (i.e., Method rather than ClassMethod) in the generated class?

I have a situation where I have a handful of classes which I need to copy to another Namespace (which uses a different RoutineDB) on the same instance, load it and compile it.

Can anyone help me come up with a command that will do this quickly and easily?   Perhaps something with extended reference?  

This is somewhat time sensitive so thank you in advance for your ideas!

Hi folks!

Just want to introduce you a new util to import CSV into IRIS - csvgenpy!

Install

USER>zpm "install csvgenpy"

Use:

do ##class(shvarov.csvgenpy.csv).Generate("file or url","table","schema")

Example:

This will create table and class data.titanic in IRIS and will load the data.  you can proof it with:

So that's it!

Basically it does the same thing as csvgen does, but uses python library sqlalchemy which works because of embedded python and sqlalchemy-iris by @Dmitry Maslennikov

P.S. csvgenpy can import some "complicated" for csvgen csv as this one

Has anyone had success with passing in a collections  property within a SOAP request to a Soap Service in Ensemble? Please reply with how you set up that collections property. I am able to successfully send a SOAP request correctly containing the elements of the collection property to Cache, as seen in a custom soap log file which I am using to troubleshoot. But the collection property in the  Ensemble request is not getting serialized, meaning MyContainers has nothing.

My.Request consists of a property, MyContainers, which can have 0 or more Containers (My.

Hello,

I am quite new to the InterSystems world. I have one of my OBX 5 fields having this value "blood work was done<>tested positive for anemia<>tested negative for hepatitis". I have a lookup table "AnemiaResults" with a key of TESTED POSITIVE FOR ANEMIA. My issue is that since OBX 5 has other characters/text  (and OBX is a repeating segment) , I am unable to use the Exists function. Any idea how to tackle this? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. 

I am having a difficult time trying to get DEBUGGING tags working in my xslt transform.

Here are snippets of the xslt I am using:

In this article, we’ll build a highly available IRIS configuration using Kubernetes Deployments with distributed persistent storage instead of the “traditional” IRIS mirror pair. This deployment would be able to tolerate infrastructure-related failures, such as node, storage and Availability Zone failures. The described approach greatly reduces the complexity of the deployment at the expense of slightly extended RTO.

During my repeated testing with Docker Desktop, I'm often short on disk space
nd need to clean it over and over as described earlier.
The main reason is the rather uncontrolled growth of ext4.vhdx
that is located on my C: drive by default.
So I decided to move this file to a large external disk.

There are several ways to do this and a detailed guide:

I decided to choose option C) using symlinks.
I did it only partially, especially for my wild-growing virtual data disk.

Hi Everyone,

 I tried to send the Sample XML from Packet Sender to Intersystems IRIS TCP Inbound adapter for learning purpose.
I'm using Predefine d Class : EnsLib.XML.TCPService and the adapter is EnsLib.TCP.CountedInboundAdapter (it selected by Default.)
My sample XML file would be <Patient><Name>John,Williams</Name><MRN>12345</MRN></Patient>
I got an error like 

ERROR <Ens>ErrTCPReadBlockSize: TCP Read(32000) with timeout period (50) failed with : (78):tElement><Patient><Name>Varatha</Name><MRN>12345</MRN></Patient></RootElement>
Please help me to proceed further

 These days the vast majority of applications are deployed on public cloud services. There are multiple advantages, including the reduction in human and material resources needed, the ability to grow quickly and cheaply, greater availability, reliability, elastic scalability, and options to improve the protection of digital assets. One of the most favored options is the Google Cloud. It lets us deploy our applications using virtual machines (Compute Engine), Docker containers (Cloud Run), or Kubernetes (Kubernetes Engine). The first one does not use Docker.

Hi all,

I'm wondering if exists any command or method to replace a text using parameters.

In C# I use the Format property

var text = string.format("My name is {0} and I'm {1} years""Kurro"

I've tried with this code... but it works only for the specific parameters

is possible to do something for more args? I mean, use for a indeterminate number of args

Best regads

A question for anyone using InterSystems technology:

What are the biggest challenges you’ve faced either trying to hire developers that know ObjectScript, or trying to train developers on ObjectScript?

• Are developers generally willing or resistant to the idea of learning ObjectScript?   Why?
• For developers trying to learn ObjectScript - what was that process like?   What were the main challenges there?
  • In-person learning?  
  • Online class? 
  • Documentation?  
  • What were your impressions?
• How did it compare to other languages?
• What would have made it easier to learn?

After any installs upgrades we get the following 

04/13/23-18:00:00:978 (18668) 0 [Utility.Event] d:\intersystems\healthshare\mgr\enslib\ (Database is readonly)
04/13/23-18:00:00:979 (18668) 0 [Utility.Event] d:\intersystems\healthshare\mgr\hslib\ (Database is readonly)

I think we must have before altered these to not read-only. 

Not sure if the isssue is by default 

-Running task as user with %ALL rather than SYS user

- Should the dbs be as default in the all backup list 

- Should these be not ro so it backs up without error? 

Following one package from the last contest I met a strange problem.
There was the requirement to install jupyter-notebook
I work on Windows and there was some old Python installed
No big surprise: Installation of jupyter-notebook failed
Therefore, the latest version of Python was installed fast.

Big disappointment: the installation of jupyter-notebook failed again!
Because the new installation of Python didn't upgrade the old one.
And also the environment variable PATH was not cleaned
This was not obvious immediately and took endless time and effort.

As you know ObjectScript has neither FOREACH system command nor system function.
But it has a wide room for creativity.

The task is to loop over a global or local array and do something FOR EACH element.

There are 2 possible solutions:

• creating a macro that generates the required code sequences
• creating an Extended Command to perform the action. Both ways are presented here. The macro is a generic and quite flexible solution and easy to adapt if required.
