You may encounter errors during any point of program execution, and there are several ways to raise and handle these exceptions. In this article, we'll explore how exceptions are handled efficiently in IRIS.

One of the most commonly used return types is %Status, which is used by methods to indicate success or failure. Let's begin by discussing %Status values.

Working with %Status

The %Status return type is used to represent errors or success. Many system methods return %Status when an error occurs. You can create a similar structure for your application errors, or convert to %Status, even w

I have an MDM interface with a DTL that takes OBX:5 and replaces "{\E\rtf" with "{\rtf" and "\X0A\" with nothing.  Most rtf's this works without a problem, some others, it corrupts the document.  

Code:

<assign value='..ReplaceStr(..ReplaceStr(source.{OBXgrp(k1).OBX:ObservationValue(1)},"{\E\rtf","{\rtf"),"\X0A\","")' property='target.{OBXgrp(k1).OBX:ObservationValue(1)}' disabled = '0' action='set' />

My question is - anyone know of any other "gotchas" that could possibly need to be replaced or something?

I have tried not doing the replace on anything, and the document shows up in view

At the moment we're creating multiple BPLs are using a router (or another BPL) to direct to these based on a unique key modulo the amount of BPLs available, e.g. if we have 3 BPLs created.
Message key = 1 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL02
Message key = 2 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL03
Message key = 3 mod 3 + 1 -> BPL01
FIFO only matters in that each messages for each key is processed in order.
What we were considering doing is increasing the pool size to 3 and programmatically creating a BPL on each thread that processes messages that would be directed to it, rather than having to create multiple BPLs into the production.

Overview

With the help of SQL, you can build, train, and manage machine learning models directly in the database with InterSystems IRIS's robust IntegratedML tool. Using SQL examples that represent your data, we will go over IntegratedML configuration and how it is used in practical situations in this article.

Hello,

When setting up a new web app in iris (iris is in a container) iris complains that a WSGI framework is not installed. I have installed python into the container as well as both flask and django via the python virtual environment (see second screenshot) and the python language server is running

Is this the wrong way to install flask? How do I get the container version to recoginize that flask is installed?

Why am I writting this?

Last year I made an article for starters on using embedded python. Later, it started a little discussion on how to return values with python and I found some interesting observations that are worth writing a little article. Also, hopefully I can reach more people by writing this.

Possible situations

There are two things you'll need to care about when returning a value with python. The first is the type you're trying to return and the second is where you're returning it. 

Let's remember our first lessons when we started coding: in python, when you define a functio

Hello, I have a problem with a call and I would need some help.

When I call an API with the SendFormDataArray method of the EnsLib.HTTP.OutboundAdapter adapter, I pass it a %Net.HttpRequest object and I receive the following error:

ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <SUBSCRIPT>MatchSuffix+1^%Net.HttpRequest.1 ^%qPublicSuffix("")

I have correctly entered the url in my business operation and I pass it in the last parameter of the SendFormDataArray method. Do you have any idea, please?

From the previous article, we identified some issues when working with JSON in SQL.

IRIS offers a dedicated feature for handling JSON documents, called DocDB.

InterSystems IRIS® data platform DocDB is a facility for storing and retrieving database data. It is compatible with, but separate from, traditional SQL table and field (class and property) data storage and retrieval. It is based on JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) which provides support for web-based data exchange. InterSystems IRIS provides support for developing DocDB databases and applications in REST and in ObjectScript, as well as providing SQL support for creating or querying DocDB data.

By its nature, InterSystems IRIS Document Database is a schema-less data structure. That means that each document has its own structure, which may differ from other documents in the same database. This has several benefits when compared with SQL, which requires a pre-defined data structure.

The word “document” is used here as a specific industry-wide technical term, as a dynamic data storage structure. “Document”, as used in DocDB, should not be confused with a text document, or with documentation.

Let's explore how DocDB can help store JSON in the database and integrate it into projects that rely solely on xDBC protocols.

Hi.
This is my first post on this forum; I've tried to open an issue on the official repo , but it seems inactive from more than a year, so I can't receive an answer from there.
I would like to know if someone use that extension and know how to use it when working server-side on an IRIS server.
I have no problem when coding on a file saved locally.
Thanks in advance

Hi, Community!

In the previous article, we introduced the Streamlit web framework, a powerful tool that enables data scientists and machine learning engineers to build interactive web applications with minimal effort. First, we explored how to install Streamlit and run a basic Streamlit app. Then, we incorporated some of Streamlit's basic commands, e.g., adding titles, headers, markdown, and displaying such multimedia as images, audio, and videos.

Later, we covered Streamlit widgets, which allow users to interact with the app through buttons, sliders, checkboxes, and more. Additionally, we examined how to display progress bars and status messages and organize the app with sidebars and containers. We also highlighted data visualization, using charts and Matplotlib figures to present data interactively.

In this article, we will cover the following topics:

Hi,

I have Objectscript routine stored in an external Linux file which I've called /my/home/DisplayDB.int

This file does not include any Class definitions and is simply a set a Object script routines. I think this is called INT objectscript

The file looks like this:

set db=##class(Config.Databases).DatabasesByServer("",.dbList)
for i=1:1:$LENGTH(dbList,",") {
  set dbName= $PIECE(dbList,",",i)
  write dbName,!
}

How do I load and compile the Objectscript code?
Do $system.OBJ.Load("/my/home/DisplayDB.int", "ck")
How would I run the code?
do ^DisplayDB
Thanks in advance for any help

Is there a way to compile all of the *.int routines from a command line and get an output of any compile errors?

On Encounter container we want  to map some data from Z segments is that possible?  Presently the mapping from HL7to SDA3 is taking place from HL7 defines segments . is there a way to push the data from Z segment.

Host Variables are a rather common programming feature in many implementations of SQL. 
A recent question in DC made me aware that in IRIS, Caché, Ensemble, ... 
host variables just exist within embedded SQL

>  You can supply host variables for Embedded SQL queries only. <

Related examples are included in the available Documentation

This is a description  for a workaround if you don't / can't use embedded SQL.

We have some *.mac routines and we need to preserve their source,
as these routines have intellectual authorship and can only be used per session
with the right to use (they cannot be viewed or edited).
The question: how to keep only the routine object in the IRIS namespace,
without interfering with its execution?

All pods are assigned a Quality of Service (QoS). These are 3 levels of priority pods are assigned within a node.

The levels are as following:

1) Guaranteed: High Priority

2) Burstable: Medium Priority

3) BestEffort: Low Priority

It is a way of telling the kubelet what your priorities are on a certain node if resources need to be reclaimed. This great GIF below by Anvesh Muppeda explains it.

If resources need to be freed, firstly pods with Best Effort QoS will be evicted, then those with Burstable, and finally those with Guaranteed. The idea is that hopefully by evicting the pods that ar

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to get back into shape with IRIS. My current goal is to practice with ObjectScript and VS Code. I installed both on my Mac, and everything worked like a charm—perhaps that's why I'm still a big fan of Unix.

For the past week, however, I've been trying to set up IRIS and VS Code on a Lenovo Legion with a Ryzen 7 processor running Windows 11 Pro, but without success. While IRIS itself is running perfectly, I'm unable to connect to it from VS Code to store ObjectScript routines. The closest I've gotten, after multiple attempts at modifying the settings.json file, was
