IRIS Runtime Environment
Hello community.
I have project on IRIS.
I am trying to make application deployable.
The Idea is to have 1 file that customer can download and run. For now I realize that whole intersysytems developer kit that includes Studio, terminal acts as runtime environment (Like Java has JDK).
Is it possible to wrap my project to 1 archive (Back to Java example .war or .jar) and run it on some application server (like Tomcat) without Studio etc..?
Thank you!

Hi, what about deploying using a Docker container ?
I'm not sure you absolutely need Studio, Visual Studio Code + InterSystems plugins should do fine.
You could eventually also provide just a ZPM of your application and let the client manage its license + IRIS.
Hi, you can use Studio to export all your application into one xml file. This XML file can be imported by anyone.
Requirements though are that the user of this application needs an IRIS version installed and licensed (might also be the community edition) .
You don't need an IDE to deploy an application (XML package) into IRIS. you just need access to either terminal or System Management Pages or short SMP (management web ui) there you can import the code and compile it so your application is available.
Also for application deployment you might want to look at an installer manifest that can do additional configuration that might be required like web application creation, security, database, namespace and global mapping creation etc.
I think that defeats the point of what he's asking for.
I started to investigate the Installation Manifest. Thank you!
I also met some difficulties in this approach and described them in the following post.

You can build and publish a container.
