I was wondering if someone could help me. I do not have docker available to me however a lot of the Open Exchange apps require it. Since I am using a Virtual Windows Machine I can not get docker installed, so I was wondering how to get around this? Someone at GS2022 suggested looking at the docker_compose.yml to figure out how to get around docker, but I am not sure I understand how to read it. 

Does someone have any quick solutions to get around docker compose? Or can tell me how to read a docker compose so that I can install some Open Exchange and or additional InterSystems components?

Thanks

Hi developers! In this article I’m going to explore the use of Iris Python Native API in a specific problem: large strings to store.

Why Python Native API?

Python Native API for Intersystems IRIS offers an useful way to persist data that you can’t have control over the schema or if the schema changes frequently. Combining the Native API with the IRIS Globals, you can easily use Iris Database as an Document Store. You can also see more details of globals use in documentation https://learning.intersystems.com/course/view.php?id=1110&ssoPass=1, or in my article https://community.intersystems.com/po

Hi Community!

We’re so glad to announce that InterSystems FHIR startup incubator —  Caelestinus held its first virtual Demo Day on June 29th!

16 startups have showed off their products and solutions built with InterSystems FHIR Server, or IRIS for Health or Health Connect to an audience of about 15 investors & partners.

The Demo Day is the result of a four-month journey — the equator of the incubator, in which startups have explored InterSystems tech, validated their ideas and presented it on the first Demo Day. In case you missed it,  enjoy watching it on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

📣 The First Demo Day of InterSystems FHIR Startup Incubator — Caelestinus

Here is the list of presenters with pitch decks of the startups.

Hello All,

   Having a recent project to create a FHIR repository, I want to know (as looking at the code) if HealthShare FHIR implementaton supports subscriptions?.  I know it records the subscriptions ok, BUT does it handle sending the subscription out (based on the tags) to an endpoint (i.e. when a new FHIR request commits data that would trigger the subscription) ?, I'm 50% it doesn't, but would rather find out for sure before shoe horning something in.

   Regards

I am writing documentation in VS Code, using markdown, and am including some COS snippets in it, e.g.:

```objectscript
[Some COS snippet]
```

The IRIS language server (etc.) is enabled, and classes in the repository this documentation is in, are syntax highlighted properly. However, the code fragment in the documentation isn't. Syntax highlighting for e.g. XML does work.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this not supported?

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to share here a quick post about my project for the Grand Prix :)

FHIR Patient Viewer is a single-page, reactive rendering tool built on Vue.js that displays in a human-friendly way the data returned from a /Patient/{id}/$everything call made to an InterSystems FHIR server.

Hello everyone,

I want to restore a database from an external backup with the journal files.

The manual says I should (in short):

1. Stop journaling with ^JRNSTOP
2. Restore the database file IRIS.DAT
3. Run the journal restore utility with ^JRNRESTO
4. Restart journaling ^JRNSTART

Since I want to restore one database only step 1 would disable journaling for the whole instance, not only for the database to be restored. As I understand, it would be impossible to restore a different database if there occurs a problem while journaling is disabled during the recovery process?

My question is: Can journaling

An interesting pattern around unique indices came up recently (in internal discussion re: isc.rest) and I'd like to highlight it for the community.

As a motivating use case: suppose you have a class representing a tree, where each node also has a name, and we want nodes to be unique by name and parent node. We want each root node to have a unique name too. A natural implementation would be:

Class DC.Demo.Node Extends%Persistent
{

Property Parent As DC.Demo.Node;Property Name As%String [ Required ];
Index ParentAndName On (Parent, Name) [ Unique ];
Storage Default
{
<Data name="NodeDe

When we collect temporary data (the number of purchases in the store, the number of comments on the post), it may happen that there is no data for a certain period of time. In this case, this time period (hour, day, month) is not represented in the database, that is, there is not a single row for this period. In other words, there are no rows in the database for this period.

When we start building analytical reports based on data from IRIS or Adaptive Analytics cubes, a visualization problem appears.

In this article, I would like to talk about the spec-first approach to REST API development.

While traditional code-first REST API development goes like this:

• Writing code
• REST-enabling it
• Documenting it (as a REST API)

Spec-first follows the same steps but reverse. We start with a spec, also doubling as documentation, generate a boilerplate REST app from that and finally write some business logic.

This is advantageous because:

• You always have relevant and useful documentation for external or frontend developers who want to use your REST API
• Specification created in OAS (Swagger) can be imported into a variety of tools allowing editing, client generation, API Management, Unit Testing and automation or simplification of many other tasks
• Improved API architecture.  In code-first approach, API is developed method by method so a developer can easily lose track of the overall API  architecture, however with the spec-first developer is forced to interact with an API from the position if API consumer which usually helps with designing cleaner API architecture
• Faster development - as all boilerplate code is automatically generated you won't have to write it, all that's left is developing business logic.
• Faster feedback loops - consumers can get a view of the API immediately and they can easier offer suggestions simply by modifying the spec

Let's develop our API in a spec-first approach!

I have successfully created REST service classes on my local IRIS server following this book: Using the /api/mgmnt/ Service | Creating REST Services | InterSystems IRIS Data Platform 2021.2

I am now 1) trying to edit impl.cls in VS Code and 2) export it to my local repo so I can push to the remote repo.

When I click on my project in VS Code and 'Add to project' and choose the new package, spec.cls and impl.cls, I get the following error:

ERROR #5540: SQLCODE: -114 Message: Unable to acquire lock for INSERT of child row for parent table '%Studio.Project' with parent id = 'Default_project'

I have a project that needs to get DSTU2 resources ultimately to CSV files.  My thought was if I could get there Resources to R4 I could use the FHIR SQL builder to help map the data.  Anyone have ideas?  Maybe DSTU2 to SDA to R4... 

Is there anyone using this callback in the code? I was searching in the latest IRIS documentation for any handy callbacks of the %Persistent class which allows me to execute some codes just right after a transaction has been committed (TCOMMIT). The description of this %OnSaveFinally() sounds the thing I want because it said:

If the calling method started a transaction then that transaction is completed prior to invoking the callback.

However, I later discovered in my own test that this callback is triggered after %Save(), not after TCOMMIT.

Hi:

Had an issue after upgrading to 2021.1 where search bar for interoability will bring up "INVALID ACTION". 

On upgrading to 2022.1 this still occurs. 

It did not occur on another environement that was upgraded from 2017.2 straight to 2022.1 

Is there any solution? Loads up SYS in url rather than customnamespacename

Issue is the url for instance brings through ip/csp/sys/EnsPortal.DTLEditor.zen?$NAMESPACE=X 

ip/csp/healthshare/customnamespace/EnsPortal.DTLEditor.zen?$NAMESPACE=X

I encountered this before and forget if there was a solution for this

Hello all, 

i am currently struggling following the instructions for reading an image file into the database as a base64 string.

My goal is to save an image into a global as base64. I followed different guides like:

https://community.intersystems.com/post/how-save-png-image-cache-base64…

https://community.intersystems.com/post/how-save-fileimage-some-specifi…

https://cedocs.intersystems.com/ens20152/csp/documatic/%25CSP.Documatic…

Here is my current code:

 N FILE,BASE64
 Set file=##class(%Stream.FileBin

We have a downstream application that cannot accept more than 500 messages at a time. They want to restrict the number of messages being sent to them at a time.

Hey Developers,

I would say it is a post of pain after years of using InterrSystems IRIS Docker images in many projects.

And I hope InterSystems will hear me and do something with it.

We have a lot of issues with Docker images, but I see no progress in solving them.

• containers.intersystems.com - any new releases substitute previous versions, makes build useless
  • ARM64 images have separate names, and it makes a pain to use them
• flags in iris-main, appears and disappears from version to version, which may fail the start the container
• healthcheck does not work as expected

Hello,

I became aware of Python in the early 2000s when I started automating tasks. Some of our processes utilized python scripts. I never figured it out very well, and we decided to do away with Python because nobody on our team was familiar with it.

Along the way, I heard a lot about Python. My interest was renewed when InterSystems offered bonus points for using Python in contests.

The things I like the most about Python so far is how easy it is to find the mean of the ages of all Titanic passengers. For my test-data app I wanted to find the largest value in the ‘Qty’ column in a CSV file.

Hi all,

I am looking at a task which involves processing an XML file. Picking the file up from a folder (c:\test.xml) reading the data out of the XML and archiving the xml after it has been processed.

I was wondering what the best way of doing this would be?

I have got as far as creating a service in Ensemble. The Service I have created uses the class name EnsLib.XML.Object.Service.FileService.

Any advice or tutorials/guides would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks

Hello,

I found another question on how to change the language for Studio (but it would've been nice to have my actual language used - Ukrainian, since it's available, or was available). Still, I can't seem to figure out how to get rid of gibberish in the menu without changing the Windows settings:
