Hello,

I was wondering if there is a way, or what is your recommended way to generate, or develop some kind of deep interest or even some joy, love, or excitement towards coding, programming, software developing. Specifically for people aged between 20 and 30 years old.

I am aware of some programming games like the following ones:

Also, there are some coding platforms with online exercises and/or challenges:

Hello community,

Because of recently the "Green Game Jam" has been celebrated as a part of a mission to improve environmental awareness, as the following quote explains: https://playing4theplanet.org/about

"UNEP has been working with the gaming industry to explore how, through their massive reach, they can inspire young people to learn and act in support of the environment. The gaming industry reaches 1 in 3 people on the planet and has a platform with unprecedented influence. How can this rapidly expanding media platform be harnessed to deliver on the Sustainable Development Goals?

Hi Community,
In this article I will demonstrate the functionality of my app iris-energy-isodata .  
Application is accessing energy data (production, demand and supply)  from the major Independent System Operators (ISOs) in the United States to ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns (SDG's 12)

Application is using python library isodata , Production EXtension PEX  along with Embedded Python.

I cloned iris-interoperability-template for my app interoperability-test. I wanted to develop an app to test interfaces in Interoperability productions.

I have never run a container in Docker Desktop. I always run containers in AWS. My first problem was that I got an error when I tried to build the image using docker-compose. The error was about BuildKit. I worked around the error by building the image with a docker build command relying on DOCKER_BUILDKIT environment variable:

DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build --progress=plain --no-cache --tag testint .

Next I updated docker-compose.

Hi,

Currently I am working to develop smart on FHIR app with FHIRaas with the help of fhirclient.js and facing one issue that .well-known/smart-configuration is raising following error "This endpoint does not have SMART on FHIR capabilities defined" Below snapshot is for reference:

 

Looking forward to resolve the above issue or workaround

Thanks

Hi all. Today we are going to install Jupyter Notebook and connect it to Apache Spark and InterSystems IRIS.

Note: I have done the following on Ubuntu 18.04,  Python 3.6.5.

Introduction

If you are looking for well-known, widely-spread and mainly popular among Python users notebook instead of Apache Zeppelin, you should choose Jupyter notebook. Jupyter notebook is a very powerful and great data science tool. it has a big community and a lot of additional software and integrations.

Great news, the extension to Docker Desktop for InterSystems Container Registry is now publicly available for everyone.

It is already available in the marketplace in Docker Desktop. It was published today, and it requires restarting Docker Desktop to see it.

Let's consider these two ways of passing an obj to a function:

//var is a structured obj
(1) do ..methodX(var)
(2) do ..methodX(.var)

In c++ if we pass an obj by reference like in (2) we save a lot in computation because we are not copying the whole object, and when the object is modified within the function it is modified also for everyone.

In this case does (2) achieve any better performance than (1)? Is passing with the "." save any computation? the object is copied anyway?

Is there a simple way of passing obj to a function?

Hi developers!

Here is the score of technical bonuses for participants' applications in the InterSystems Interoperability Contest: Building Sustainable Solutions 2022!

My team is working on redesigning and implementing an Ensemble production on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform. We had to learn about Kubernetes and IKO.

We have webgateway pods that route incoming web traffic to compute pods where the Interoperability production is running.

Recently we had trouble while testing a SOAP interface. It’s a Generic SOAP Service passing a SOAP message to a Generic SOAP Operation. Sounds simple enough.

I got 404 response when we sent from Postman requests to the load balancer for our IRIS cluster. I could see the request in webgateway Access Log.

I am trying to pull the status of operations in health connect. I'm successfully pulling if it's enabled/disabled, but I'm not getting access to where the current item status is held (for example, items in error). I found "##class(EnsPortal.Utils).ItemStatuses", but I can't retrieve data from that. Is this data readily accessible via another means?

Thank you!

Hi Guys,

I'm using the below code that should get me a JSON response, here an example of what I get if I run it from the browser:

Set Httprequest=##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New()
Set Httprequest.SSLConfiguration="RTLS"
Set Httprequest.Server="nn.sxhub.com"
Set Httprequest.Timeout=30
 Set Httprequest.Port=9222
Set Httprequest.Https=1
set Httprequest.ContentType="application/json"
Do Httprequest.SetHeader("Accept","application/json")
Do Httprequest.SetHeader("Accept-Language","en_US")
Set HttpURL="/SX/api/visiblebles?mac=CC:1A:E2:E1:A4:30"
Set tSc=Httprequest.Get(HttpURL)
If $$$ISERR(tSc){
W !, $System.OBJ.

On the Latest GlobalSummit 2022, InterSystems Introduced Cloud SQL. So, you may have lightweight InterSystems IRIS with access to SQL only. Well, what if you would still need some Interoperability features in the cloud as well? There are various solutions on the market nowadays, which offer a bunch of integration adapters out of the box and can be extended with support from the community. Some time ago, I've implemented an adapter for the Node-RED project, which can be deployed manually everywhere you want. Now I would like to introduce a new integration with my recent discovery, n8n.io

n8n.io is a workflow automation platform, that supports over 200 different integrations out of the box and from a community, and now including InterSystems IRIS.

Welcome to the July'22 Community Release!

We’ve recently made some interesting changes to your experience in the InterSystems Community:

Hi Guys,

I do have a class where one it's fields is defined as  %TimeStamp and I did query to select all records and if current datetime is bigger then what's in my nextScheduled filed and basically with this condition below I should have all records stored in ^badis but for some reason I'm only getting the first record   

 S sql="Select ID,CollectTimeOut,KitId,ComponentId,Loc,IntervalValue,IntervalType,LastScheduled,NextScheduled,Schedule,StartDate,StartTime,SensorId,SensorType from MSDS_Common.JobSchedule"
 Set RSet=##class(%ResultSet).%New()

Hi Guys,

never mind this post is withdrawn  

Thanks

Now that IRIS 2021.1 is available as a preview version, I would like to demonstrate a "new" feature. The Java Gateway has been around for a while now but in 2021.1 it has new skills. External Language Servers are available for Java, DotNet, and Python. Here is a quick - very quick - demo of using the External Java Server. Please don't focus solely on what this demo is doing but rather on what is happening in this demo. First, I acquire a gateway connection oref. This gateway connection is connected to the External Java Server - one of the External Language Servers.

set java = $system.external.

InterSystems is proud to offer 50% discount on InterSystems Certification exams to all registered attendees of UK&I summit.  Vouchers will be available at the registration desk.

This is the seventh in a series of releases that are part of the developer preview program for 2022.2 Future preview releases are expected to be updated biweekly and we will add features as they are ready.  Many updates, fixes and enhancements  have been added in 2022.2, in SQL management, cloud integration, Kafka and JMS adapters, the SQL Loader, and other areas. Please share your feedback through the Developer Community so we can build a better product together.

The Early Access Program (EAP) is still active for the Columnar Storage.

I'm trying to get an ACK routed to a different process in our Test environment and here is the router setup:

I have a rule in the target router to send to an operation.

The problem I'm running into is that the HL7 ACK coming back is marked as "Discarded", so it's not even getting to the second router.

This is the ACK message:

I've tried everything I can think of, but once the ACK hits the router, it gets marked as discarded and then things just stop.
