An integrated development environment (IDE) is a software application that provides comprehensive facilities to computer programmers for software development.
The official IDE for InterSystems Data Platform products is Atelier.
As a developer, usually I'm concerned about how my code health is, and how the other coders code can affect to my own work. And I'm quite sure most of us feel very similar.
In our company we use a Static Code Analysis tool to analyze code for different languages to ensure we are writing high quality and easily maintainable code by following a few best practices in terms of code structure and content. And the question was: why should be different for Caché ObjectScript language?
Recently GitHub introduced topics for the projects.
So you can change your InterSystems related projects introducing the topics to let it be categorized, more visible and searchable. Here is the list of good examples for your projects (some of them are clickable already):
Have you heard interesting things about Atelier, the InterSystems Eclipse plugin, and want to learn more?
Join @Michelle Stolwyk, a software developer at InterSystems, for Enter a New Era with Atelier, a webinar in which she shows how Atelier can simplify your development workflow. She also discusses the feature priorities InterSystems has for Atelier and even explains how your feedback can affect these priorities!
Do you have questions for Michelle following the webinar? Feel free to post them below!
Over the past few months, our team has been hard at work building a better Atelier experience for you. With three major new features and more than twenty enhancements, Atelier 1.2.118 makes it easier for you to develop important applications. It now also supports InterSystems IRIS Data Platform™, which enables you to rapidly build scalable, interoperable, and analytical data-rich applications.
We have noticed that when compiling with Atelier (either Atelier itself or sending the code through the REST interface) that the build will fail if all brackets '() {} []' are not closed. This includes brackets opened in comments.
For example, this will fail:
class myclass
{
//if someVar {
}
I do not know if this issue has been fixed or if this issue has been brought up, but it has been a nuisance over here.
I want to grant access to view the Error Trap in System Management Portal to certain admins, without giving them access to anything that would alter Caché behavior, such as users or database sizes. I was looking for a granular Resource that would do this, but haven't been able to find what I'm looking for.
In Atelier when resolving conflicts with the server the screen shows the Local copy and Server copy and the differences, but depending on where the difference is you cannot tell what what the document is, you need to scroll to the top to see what it is before deciding what to do. It should indicate the class or routine name beside "Conflicting Server documents"
We at George James Software are pleased to announce the release of version 2.6 of Serenji, our editor and debugger for Caché, Ensemble and HealthShare.
The main enhancement in 2.6 is the ability to run on a Linux <edit> or OS X </edit> workstation using Wine 1.8. More release details are here.
I have great news for you. A few days ago, GitHub was updated with the latest version of linguist project, which is being used to recognize source code types in repositories. It helps to determine which programming language had been used in every file of the repository. Repository statistics section shows the results of this module work.
Also, you can search across all available GitHub repositories for any chosen language.
Some time ago GitHub, has announced the new feature, GitHub Codespaces. It gives an ability to run VSCode in the browser, with almost the same power as it would run locally on your machine, but also with a power of clouds, so, you are able to choose the machine type with up to 32 CPU cores and 64 GB of RAM.
Looks impressive, is not it? But how it could help us, to work with projects driven by InterSystems IRIS? Let's have a look, how to configure it for us.
EnsPlus, the Caché Objectscript plugin for Visual Studio, has now been upgraded to support all versions of Visual Studio 2015, including the free Community edition.
My team is currently working on a project where we need to post pdf documents to a 3rd party REST API.
The API specifies a field in the JSON request message to contain the 'physical content' of the file as an array of bytes, example of the JSON request as follows - data truncated for readability purposes:
Are you preparing to use VS code for the first time? Just make sure you have enough privileges.
Have you defined your Iris server in your VS Code settings, and still get the following error?
VS Code accesses Iris/HealthConnect using the web application /api/atelier. If you do not have permission (i.e. you are using an LDAP user to connect and the web application is not configured to support LDAP), this is the reason why you couldn't connect.
I am glad to say that VSCode-ObjectScript reached 4000 installs. Thanks to all of you who use it in their work.
VSCode-ObjectScript is an extension for VSCode which allows you to develop InterSystems based applications on ObjectScript using the modern code editor developed by Microsoft. Choice #1 editor amongst all developers worldwide by Stackoverflow survey 2019.
Some short notes about how to install and configure it you can find here.
If you need any help with a migration process of your development team to VSCode, please contact us by info@caretdev.com.
I use an excellent service to collect time programming. Is the WakaTime: https://wakatime.com/.
This service integrate with main IDE tools, including VSCode and collect time spent by project, language, IDE and code stats at general. See my last 7 days:
These information help me to organize and balance my targets by project.
Hello everyone, I just started to learn how to create a web application. My aim is to create a web app with IRIS, which streams financial data. Can I connect some streaming-data API (for example IEX API) with the IRIS Platform? Or is there any other easier way to achieve my aim? Thank you in advance.
Our organization is looking to expand our Coding Standards to be more in alignment with best practices.
I was wondering if the there are developers here that would not mind sharing any existing documents. Our scope would be this document be applicable to new hires learning Cache all the way up the chain.
Hello everyone, After some work with IRIS we want to share our ToolBox-4-Iris with you.
What is this about?
The ToolBox-4-Iris is an API for IRIS with a collection of handy and useful tools - features that are not available in IRIS, but greatly simplify application development. To save time and effort on the "typical tools" that every developer needs. This includes additional classes, individual methods or even more efficient macros, which are described in the respective packages.
