InterSystems Developer Community is a community of 25,933 amazing developers
We're a place where InterSystems IRIS programmers learn and share, stay up-to-date, grow together and have fun!

The previous article introduced IrisOASTestGen, a tool designed to generate REST API test code for InterSystems IRIS based on OpenAPI 2.0 specifications. It demonstrated how to scaffold test cases using the default templates bundled with OpenAPI Generator.

This follow-up focuses on the next natural step: customizing the generated test code.
By extending the code generation logic with Mustache templates, it becomes possible to express richer semantics, implement CRUD-aware tests, and create more meaningful test suites.

FDN Help

New to using FDN, and the Form Wizard on learning.intersystems.com does not go into enough detail to help with my questions...

  1. Is there a way to control text size within the Form Definition?
  2. Is there a way to make Sections more of a Page based caching then, waiting for the entire page to load?

Hi, Community!

If you need to help providers meet a payer's documentation requirements, see how the Documentation Templates and Rules (DTR) module of the InterSystems Payer Services ePrior Authorization solution can help:

Foreign Table datatypes

Hello!

I'm trying to create some foreign tables to a PostgreSQL database. In some cases, columns with certain datatypes cannot be consumed by IRIS and the following error is thrown:

[SQLCODE: <-237>:<Schema import for foreign table did not return column metadata>]

[%msg: <Unkown data type returned by external database>]

For example: serial4 typed ID columns are typical examples. Is it possible, what's the best way of resolving these datatypes, which- seemingly- don't have proper JDBC metadata mappings?

Everyone makes mistakes

I still remember the very first code I wrote in Object Script

Coming from Python, it felt so strange at first, but over time I started to see why the language was built the way it is.

If you’re just starting out, keep in mind that ObjectScript might feel a bit niche and mostly tied to IRIS products, but the way you work with it can really pay off - fast development, a powerful database, and a solid platform to learn on.

Sometimes it feels like you’ve stepped into a world that’s both familiar and different.

Join us on Thursday to see the new features of Deltanji source control, version 8.1.

We'll be demoing our new Git Location Driver along with other functionality and usability improvements.

The Git Location Driver enables Deltanji to integrate directly with Git repositories, makes Deltanji the perfect source control companion to those who use Git-based repos by providing tighter integration with InterSystems IRIS.

I am experimenting with OpenTelemetry and recently connected all IRIS instances to telemetry servers.
I'm not interested in emitting custom metrics since IRIS does it fine, regarding tracing - we can use %Trace classes to emit custom traces, but what about logging?

I see that IRIS is able to send system log messages to the OpenTelemetry servers:
