Thanks to @Yuri Marx we have seen a very nice example for DB migration from Postgres to IRIS. My personal problem is the use of DBeaver as a migration tool. Especially as one of the strengths of IRIS ( and also Caché) before is the availability of the SQLgateways that allow access to any external Db as long as for them an access usinig JDBC or ODBC is available. So I extended the package to demonstrate this.
This is yet another short post that is intended to simplify developers' life. Now we'll talk about how to make GitHub run unit tests with every push to the repository by adding just one file to the repo. For free. On Github Cloud. Sounds great, isn't it?
It is possible and very easy to do. Credit goes to @Dmitry Maslennikov (and his repo), ZPM Package Manager, and GitHub Actions. Let's see how this all works!
This might be useful to others, especially the dockerfile which I have copied below. This builds a debian docker container and installs the Intersystems Cache driver, which python can then use :)
I am new to Intersystems, in our project we are directly connecting to the server (environment) using Intersystems VSCode extensions and publishing our changes from local machine. This is not the way we usually do as development process.
Is it possible to implement continuous integration ? So that developers can check-in their code in GIT Hub and can integrate Jenkins and automate the deployment?
When creating a service with DOCKER SERVICE CREATE we cannot pull from the intranet/local image repository. Both PULL and PUSH can be handled from the intranet repository.
I am working on a setup using the iris docker image (iris:2020.4.0.547.0). I need the timezone to be a different timezone than the host. Is there a way to do that by passing in an options / variable?
IMPORTANT NOTE InterSystems no longer provides a separate InterSystems Reports Server container. To run containerized InterSystems Reports Server, use Logi Reports Server container and your InterSystems Reports Server license. Documentation.
InterSystems Reports is powered by Logi Report (formerly named JReport), a product of Logi Analytics. InterSystems Reports is supported by InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS for Health. It provides a robust modern reporting solution that includes:
Embedded operational reporting which can be customized by both report developers and end users.
Pixel-perfect formatting that lets you develop highly specific form grids or other special layout elements for invoices, documents, and forms.
Banded layouts that provide structure for aggregated and detailed data.
Exact positioning of headers, footers, aggregations, detailed data, images, and sub-reports.
A variety of page report types.
Large-scale dynamic report scheduling and distribution including export to PDF, XLS, HTML, XML, and other file formats, printing, and archiving for regulatory compliance.
InterSystems Reports consists of:
A report designer, which provides Design and Preview Tabs that enable report developers to create and preview reports with live data.
A report server which provides end users browser-based access to run, schedule, filter, and modify reports.
This article focuses on the Server part of InterSystems Reports and provides a guide on running Report Server in containers while persisting all the data.
It is becoming more and more common to see beautiful badges in the README.MD file with useful information about the current project in the repositories of GitHub, GitLab and others.
For instance:
I am running InterSystems iris 2021.1 from the container and I have version 2020.1.1 is installed locally. While running studio locally I am getting below error message:
"Version mismatch. Studio version 2020.1.1 unable to connect to server version 2021.1 Upgrade to a later version of the client to resolve this error"
Function as a service (FaaS) is a category of cloud computing services that provides a platform allowing customers to develop, run, and manage application functionalities without the complexity of building and maintaining the infrastructure typically associated with developing and launching an app. Building an application following this model is one way of achieving a "serverless" architecture, and is typically used when building microservices applications.
We are developing some containarized cloud application level iris instances and using CPF Merge to do a lot of the initial buildout for the iris instance (i.e. create databases, namespaces, map globals/routines, ecp setup, etc...)
I am trying to figure out how to get package mappings into a namespace config, via cpf merge if possible... ?
This is the document I am working from to develop the cpf merge file -
Suppose you want to create your ObjectScript library to be distributed via ObjectScript Package Manager. And there is an obvious question: what is the naming convention on the packages and class names?
Hi All! For those of you who attended experience labs at the 2021 Virtual Summit, you may recall that one of the lab sessions was around Kubernetes. We've now converted that lab to be fully on-demand. You can launch a small cluster of VMs and follow the exercise to manage your Kubernetes cluster, deploy InterSystems IRIS containers to it, and watch its self-healing nature when destroying a pod.
I'm trying to get IRIS to run on a new MacBook with a Apple M1 Pro chip. Local installs did not run, so I switched to docker containers. When I execute following command "docker run --detach --publish 52773:52773 --volume /Users/joost/Docker/iris/data/dur:/dur --env ISC_DATA_DIRECTORY=/dur/iconfig --name iris21 --init store/intersystems/iris-community:2021.1.0.215.0" an image is pulled and a container is created but the IRIS instance does not run. The log gives me the following output:
I have just created a new Global Master Topic, "IRIS Cheatsheets". IRIS has introduced a lot of new functionality, especially in scripting languages, FHIR R4 support, enhanced Interoperability Tools, and IRIS Analytics. Having spent 35 years working on Windows-based PC's and Laptops, I have surprisingly little knowledge of Linux, Docker and Git. Furthermore, I have written almost every application and Interface in ObjectScript with splatterings of SQL, .Net, and Java Gateways and the most basic knowledge of WinSCP, Putty, SSH. All that changed when I received my first Raspberry Pi.
In this article, we will run an InterSystems IRIS cluster using docker and Merge CPF files - a new feature allowing you to configure servers with ease.
On UNIX® and Linux, you can modify the default iris.cpf using a declarative CPF merge file. A merge file is a partial CPF that sets the desired values for any number of parameters upon instance startup. The CPF merge operation works only once for each instance.
Our cluster architecture is very simple, it would consist of one Node1 (master node) and two Data Nodes (check all available roles). Unfortunately, docker-compose cannot deploy to several servers (although it can deploy to remote hosts), so this is useful for local development of sharding-aware data models, tests, and such. For a productive InterSystems IRIS Cluster deployment, you should use either ICM or IKO.
I run most of my reviews using Docker Desktop on Windows 10. According to the recommendations, I clean up docker and downloaded repositories after tests: Repos are simple but Docker is somewhat resistant to release the consumed disk space.
