InterSystems Developer Community is a community of 22,355 amazing developers
We're a place where InterSystems IRIS programmers learn and share, stay up-to-date, grow together and have fun!

Hello Developers,

I have MacBook Pro M3 and I'm new to the IRIS for Health setup / installation with all pre-requisite / requirements so someone could please help me with detailed instructions on how to setup IRIS for Health (HL7 & FHIR) from scratch along with SQL Server? I have Windows 11 installed in parallel desktop if that's required and complete installation / setup is not possible on MacBook.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Community!

We know that every developer has small side projects — apps where you experiment with new technologies, test ideas before implementing them in bigger solutions, or just build something fun for the sake of curiosity. But what if one of those projects could take you all the way to the InterSystems READY 2025?

We’re launching a unique opportunity: show us your passion, creativity, and love for IRIS, and win a free pass to the InterSystems READY + hotel accommodation!

The rules are simple: upload your fun IRIS-based side project to Open Exchange, and record a short inspirational video about why you should be the one to get the pass to THE event of the year and win!

Duration: April 21 - May 04, 2025

Prizes: hotel accommodation and free passes to the InterSystems READY 2025!

I'd like to ask you for recommendations on how to properly use repository dependencies when using VSCode and Client-side editing.
Suppose I have projects A, B and C, with A being independent, B depending on A, and C depending on A and B.
I am currently working with the main project C, and I want to be able to contribute to all the other projects in a single VSCode window (instead of opening three instances). How do you solve this problem? Git submodules? ZPM? Something else?

Background

Embeddings is a new IRIS feature empowering the latest capability in AI semantic search.
This presents as a new kind of column on a table that holds vector data.
The embedding column supports search for another existing column of the same table.
As records are added or updated to the table, the supported column is passed through an AI model and the semantic signature is returned.
This signature information is stored as the vector for future search comparison.

AWS Files

Hi Guys,

I'm looking to create a service to download files from S3, so I used the EnsLib.AmazonS3.BusinessService with settings as below to download files that starts with SMfile_48 but I'm not getting any files, am I missing something?

Thanks

Hello there 🙋‍♂️,

I'm looking towards a functionality alike Python's difflib, but made with Intersystems products. I already know could embed Python code within IRIS but thought maybe there was a development already done for handling deltas, with a different approach or extra utils.

Even if I find such a library after comparing both might still go with difflib or any other more suitable. Intend to use it for a cross-environment checklist/check tool.

Please find below a sample of HTML rendering computed and made with difflib, with a few lines of code:

Hey everyone.

I'm currently looking at a process where we're utilising the Class Ens.StreamContainer, and was looking to do some deletions outside of any purge routines.

Having been burned before, I wanted to make sure that deleting the container also deletes the contents within.

From looking in the class, the %OnDelete ClassMethod appears to be removing an index from a search table and nothing more.

I have a segment within a Group (grp) that needs to be validated that it is populated within the message.

When you use a Foreach within a Business Rule how should you account for the counter in the group?

For example, Epic sends their MFN message in the following format.

MSH~MFI~[~{~MFE~STF~PRA~[~ZPR~]~[~ZLK~]~[~CER~]~[~ZMG~]~[~ZTF~]~[~ZGP~]~[~ZDD~]~}~]

Hi Community,

In this article, I will introduce my application iris-AgenticAI .

The rise of agentic AI marks a transformative leap in how artificial intelligence interacts with the world—moving beyond static responses to dynamic, goal-driven problem-solving. Powered by OpenAI’s Agentic SDK , The OpenAI Agents SDK enables you to build agentic AI apps in a lightweight, easy-to-use package with very few abstractions. It's a production-ready upgrade of our previous experimentation for agents, Swarm.
This application showcases the next generation of autonomous AI systems capable of reasoning, collaborating, and executing complex tasks with human-like adaptability.

Application Features

  • Agent Loop 🔄 A built-in loop that autonomously manages tool execution, sends results back to the LLM, and iterates until task completion.
  • Python-First 🐍 Leverage native Python syntax (decorators, generators, etc.) to orchestrate and chain agents without external DSLs.
  • Handoffs 🤝 Seamlessly coordinate multi-agent workflows by delegating tasks between specialized agents.
  • Function Tools ⚒️ Decorate any Python function with @tool to instantly integrate it into the agent’s toolkit.
  • Vector Search (RAG) 🧠 Native integration of vector store (IRIS) for RAG retrieval.
  • Tracing 🔍 Built-in tracing to visualize, debug, and monitor agent workflows in real time (think LangSmith alternatives).
  • MCP Servers 🌐 Support for Model Context Protocol (MCP) via stdio and HTTP, enabling cross-process agent communication.
  • Chainlit UI 🖥️ Integrated Chainlit framework for building interactive chat interfaces with minimal code.
  • Stateful Memory 🧠 Preserve chat history, context, and agent state across sessions for continuity and long-running tasks.

If you want to know if a class about a topic already exists asking a simple natural language question, it is possible now. Download and run the application https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/langchain-iris-tool to know all about your project classes in a Chat.

it errors out with this <SYNTAX> error where the "<" or ">" are not accepted.

Hi developers!

This will be a very short article as in April 2025 with Lovable and other Prompt-to-UI tools it becomes possible to build the frontend with prompting. Even to the folks like me who is not familiar with modern UI techics at all.

Well, I know at least the words javascript, typescript and ReactJS, so in this very short article we will be building the ReactJS UI to InterSystems FHIR server with Lovable.ai.

Let's go!
