Hey community, how are you doing?

How do you exercise your creativity? How do you test new ideas?

Over the years I have always thought about creating new things, modifying existing ones, experimenting, testing, breaking (it always happens), building again, starting over.

In this article I will demonstrate the following :

• Update ReferencesRange(OBX:7) against ObservationIdentifier(OBX:3.1)[TestCode] from database by using custom utility function
• Update Abnormal Flag(OBX:8) against ObservationIdentifier(OBX:3.1)[TestCode]  and ObservationValue(OBX:5)[Result] from database utility function
• Route Message based on Abnormal Flag(OBX:8)

Below is the primary and transformed HL7 2.5 ORU_R01 message:
 

Hi Community,

In this article I will demonstrate the functionality of my app iris-energy-isodata .  
Application is accessing energy data (production, demand and supply)  from the major Independent System Operators (ISOs) in the United States to ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns (SDG's 12)

This formation, accessible on my GitHub, will cover, in half a hour, how to read and write in csv and txt files, insert and get inside the IRIS database and a distant database using Postgres or how to use a FLASK API, all of that using the Interoperability framework using ONLY Python following the PEP8 convention.

InterSystems technologies are renowned for their high performing databases, which support the systems and operations of many organisations. However a key ingredient to this success is the quality and maintainability of their code. 

The quality of code can impact everything from speed and ease of fixing bugs and making enhancements, to the overall performance of your organization and your ability to get ahead in the marketplace. 

By ensuring your code is maintainable, you can reduce approximately 75% of the systems life cycle costs*. This is why, at George James Software, the solutions we build are always straightforward and written in high quality code - because we know that this solid foundation can positively impact the rest of your organization. 

With a maintainable system you're able to reduce your overall maintenance as any issues that occur are significantly faster to identify and fix. This means you're free to allocate that time and budget to enhancements, enabling you to get the most value out of your applications and ultimately better support your organization. 

Keep an eye out for our next few posts about what a maintainable system looks like and the tools that can help you keep your code maintainable, in order to help you to reduce those maintenance costs.  

IRIS Interoperability formerly known as Ensemble comes with many built in adapters. It does not have a service or adapter to receive mail. I have written email service to receive mail messages via SMTP which can be passed to email operation.

InterSystems Production Monitor is a page in Management Portal to display monitoring information for the current running production. I like the page as it comes, but one size does not fit all.

On May 13, 2022 I read this post on Developer Community:

As I was thinking what I could develop for InterSystems Full Stack Contest, I saw this post:

The latest release of Serenji focuses on the debug experience. Not only can you now debug on the spot, no matter where you are or what you're doing, but we've also added some smaller features that will make debugging more straightforward. 

• Run and Debug CodeLenses - clickable links above each class method, procedure, subroutine or extrinsic function.
• Intuitive prompting for entrypoints and arguments - when debugging a class method, produce, subroutine or extrinsic function. 
• Shaded read-only background - to clearly differentiate between documents which are editable and those that are read-only. 
• Program output in debug console - output is shown in the debug console. 
• Serenji commands on Server Manager's namespace trees - allowing you to launch Serenji through Server Manager.

I work as an Integration Engineer for United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). I work on a Health Connect production which processes many RecordMap files. I do not fully understand RecordMaps and I wanted to develop an application for the Interoperability contest where I could learn more about working with RecordMaps. I browsed InterSystems documentation for inspiration on how to start. I was happy to find CSV Record Wizard.

You may know it but IRIS is a database with the ability to execute code.

The code execution part is called an Application Server.

Today IRIS supports natively two languages: ObjectScript and Python.
Executing code is good, knowing how to organize it is better.
