Announcing gj :: locate.  A simple extension for VS Code that will help you get to the source of your errors.

In VS Code, using either the Serenji extension or the basic InterSystems objectscript extension, this small add-on will open the appropriate class or routine and position you at the exact line where an error occurred.

No more tedious counting of lines to find <UNDEFINED>zCredit+206^Ledger.Invoice.1.  Instead, with gj :: locate you can get there with just a couple of clicks.

This 20 second video tells it all:

 

Download now and enjoy getting to the source of your errors.

Question Utsavi Gajjar · Apr 15, 2021

Hello Everyone,

We are currently in process of implementing REST APIs using IRIS and we are also looking at using Intersystems API Manager. 

Our aim is to implement a Microservices Architechture where Services are small in size,  bounded by contexts, autonomously developed, and independently deployable. 

We are following a spec first approach where we are first defining the API specs into Swagger Hub and using IRIS API Management Service to build the REST classes i.e. the Specification class, Dispatch class and Implementation Class.

Hello developers! I present to you the project of editors in terminal mode. The full-screen editor of routines, arrays and text files in terminal mode can be useful to you when debugging your project in docker or when your web interface is unavailable or limited for some reason. Although this project is self-sufficient, I decided to make it as an addition to the ‘zapm’ module for the convenience of calling editor commands.

If your instance does not have a ZPM, then you can install the zapm-editor module in one line:

Question Virginia Rogers · Apr 20, 2021

Hello,

I'm using $ZF(-1) in a class method which will be invoked from a csp page.

What determines the environment of the spawned process?  If I use $ZF(-1,"echo hello world > output.txt"), the resulting file is owned by cacheusr:cacheusr.  However, when I use $ZF(-1,"printenv > output.txt"), the environment is from my personal unix account, no matter which Cache username I'm logged in under when running the web application.  

Thanks

Question Daniel Natali · Apr 19, 2021

Hi Community,

I am trying to access another process's content of objects like %request and %session. I am using the class/method "%SYS.ProcessQuery:VariableByPid". Does anyone knows how to get the value of the properties like %request.Data("ID",1)  from one process that is running on the DB server?

Example of what I am trying to do:

        set rs=##class(%ResultSet).%New("%SYS.ProcessQuery:VariableByPid")
        set tsc=rs.Execute(ProcessID,"%request")
        while rs.%Next() { 
            w "Name:"_$g(rs.Data("Name")),!
             w "Value:"_$g(rs.Data("Value")),!
        }
        do rs.Close()

gj :: connect is a demonstration extension that shows how to extend the Intersystems Server Manager to perform custom actions.

It makes use of the context menu contribution points to add both in-line and right click menu options.

It also demonstrates how to create a new top level folder in your workspace corresponding to the server and namespace selected in Server Manager.

You may think it isn’t too difficult to get from label+offset^routine to the actual source line responsible for the error.  For an expert it isn't that hard... most of the time.  But there are enough oddities and special rules that even an expert can get it wrong, whilst spending a lot of time trying to get there.

gj :: locate is the latest tool from George James Software – it debugs any error, class or routine by converting the location of an error in compiled .int code to the corresponding location in your source, and then taking you right there.

Image this scenario…

Question Yone Moreno · Apr 20, 2021

Hello,

First of all thanks for your time reading this question,

We would need some help,

The challenge is that our Ensemble does not start.

If we Launch Ensebmle we see:

When we open: C:\InterSystems\HealthShare_2\mgr\cconsole.log

We read:

04/13/21-13:00:29:878 (8084) 3 Error: ERROR #5001: Could not start SuperServer on port 56773, may be in use by another instance - Shutting down the system

When we use: netstat -oan

We observe:

TCP    [::]:56773             [::]:0                 LISTENING       2396

Then we write: tasklist /svc /FI "PID eq 2396"

And we have:

Question Andrea Schecker-Krauss · Apr 16, 2021

I checked out a Git-Branch and want to Import all Objectscript-Objects to my localhost.

While using Import without Compilation I receive a lot of errors.

request to http://127.0.0.1:57772/api/atelier/v3/TSTCBW/doc/MusLT01LCOD.int?ignore… failed, reason: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:57772

While using Import and Compile I receive much more of this errors.

Is there a setting, that I have to key in?

Or how can I synchronize my namespace to test my changes?

We are seeing more and more customers being lured with latest infrastructure technologies, particularly Composable Infrastructure. Coming with all sorts of data center consolidations and costs savings.

Question is: are there any concerns for HealthShare/TrakCare being run on these platforms or things to look out for? Anyone out there, already on these platforms?

To be more specific this is HPe Synergy with 480 Compute blades booting as bare metal.

Regards;

Anzelem.

Question Mike Yackanich · Apr 16, 2021

I am attempting to POST a Bundle containing a resource to an ISC-based Resource Repository. Documentation says "batch" interaction is fully supported - so I assume this is possible.

I post to the FHIR base URL, but I get the following back: " The requested URL /customfhir/r4 was not found on this server."

The bundle I use to post to create a patient resource is very simple (see below). I am using a request.method of POST because I want the Resource Repo to create a new fhir resource id.

Hi Developers,

In the previous article, we describe how to use config-api to configure IRIS.

Now, let's try to combine the library with the ZPM client.
The goal is to load a configuration document during zpm install at the configure phase.

For this exercise, a template repository is available here (this is based on objectscript-docker-template ).

We attempt to :

  • Create a database MYAPPDATA.
  • Set Globals mapping for dc.PackageSample.*.
  • Add a user named SQLUserRO with read-only SQL role access.
  • Add an SSL Configuration named SSLAppDefault.
  • Create a REST application /rest/myapp.

Question Benjamin Pickett · Apr 16, 2021

When creating pivots in DeepSee, there is the ability to group date dimensions by Day, Week, Month, Quarter, Year.  For some of our reporting the Week option is desired.  However the display looks like the image shown below.  Notice the "YYYYW##" formatting.

Is there any ability within DeepSee to modify the display of grouped week dates?  E.g. instead of 2020W14 it could be 03/30/2020-04/05-2020, or even just the start or end date, etc.

Some changes in IRIS configuration require a restart of IRIS.
This is no big issue as long as I have access to the server command line with sufficient privileges.
In a container, this is not always given.
Stopping IRIS from the terminal/session prompt is no problem.
But the restart after is.  

Note1: container start-stop is no option as it might be removed by option --rm in docker run
Note2: the target is linux (manly in docker).  Windows is excluded

When you have more than ten thousand users in your database, it becomes time-consuming and inconvenient to assign group access rights through the standard IRIS interface. In this artilce I want to introduce you an application to automate this process.

I’ll show you how to assign and change the role lists for the users, selecting them by context, and I will also show you how to expand this application’s functionality. you know how to apply your work as an administrator and developer to the new features of the well-proven apptools software complex. With the addition of an adminLTE template, you can now quickly and easily create interface interactions for any entity and many functional modules. The goal while developing this toolkit is to write as little JavaScript as possible as well as transfer and implement all the dynamics as much as possible in the ObjectScript.

Hello everyone,

First, thanks in advance for your help :-)
