#Beginner #Git #Ensemble #InterSystems IRIS for Health

Hi All, I'm in the process of trying to rollout the git version control system with our current code base within Atelier. We use Ensemble to develop interfaces but are looking to move to IRIS in the near future. Our code is structured similar to below:

Site

System1

Routers

Processes

Transformations

Data

Services

Operations

…

System2

Routers

Processes

Transformations

Services

Operations

Data

…

Productions

Routers

Operations

My initial thoughts are that we would have three repositories. One for DEV, TEST and PROD. Each repository would contain multiple Atelier projects where each project is a system. Potentially I would place all the shared/common items in a separate project called something like Common.

I'm also wondering how best to version control shared/common items such as lookup tables, schemas, productions, routers etc. that are used by multiple systems?

Thanks,

Graham

If your code base is especially large, you might want to consider creating projects like

site.system1.routers
site.system1.processes
site.system2.routers
site.system2.processes
site.common.routers
site.common.productions

Keep in mind that Atelier projects don't play nicely with XML files that aren't supported by the UDL transformation engine. The community should be able to steer you in the right direction if that becomes a blocker for you.
