Prepare a Sample application

1. For this tutorial we will use the iris-rest-api-template (https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/iris-rest-api-template), adding some code to install JIRISReport support. Do these steps:
2. Clone the project on a local folder:

Hibernate is the most popular framework to do ORM (Object Relational Mapping) projects. With Hibernate a software can use the main DBMS in the market, including the capability to change the database vendor any time, without source code impact. This is possible because the Hibernate supports dialects. Each database product has a different dialect that can be assigned into a configuration file. So, if a software is using Oracle and is looking to evolve to InterSystems IRIS, just change the configuration file with connection and dialect information.

Hey Community!

Here is a short article on how to create an idea on InterSystems Ideas.

0. Register on Ideas Portal if you aren't a member yet or log in. You can easily register using your InterSystems Developer Community ID.

1. Click on the "Add a new idea" button

It is a recommended security practice to login into sensitive Administrator Portals without any input passwords. Thus, it is necessary to identify and authenticate the users correctly. A common technique employed by web portals and mobile applications is to use Google social login. Today, Google Gmail has 2 billion users (source: https://www.usesignhouse.com/blog/gmail-stats). Therefore, it is a perfect shared login service to utilize to login InterSystems IRIS users when they need to manage their instances. This article will detail all the steps to embed Google Login into your InterSystems Management Portal.

Register your InterSystems instance in the Google Console

1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com and log in with your Google user account.
2. On the header click Select a project:

Hi Community,

In the first part, we describe all packages, used libraries and REST services.

Now, I would like to add some details about converter and validator services.

By default, OpenAPI-Suite sends an HTTP request to converter.swagger.io if the specification version is less than 3.0 and another HTTP request to validator.swagger.io to simplify the structure of the specification document.

Although the usage of online utilities is convenient, in some cases it could be better to have our own instance of the converter and validator. For example, if OpenAPI-Suite is provided on a server in an organisation for ObjectScript developers, it may be preferable to avoid requests to external services (privacy, avoid request rate limits).

Just run:

docker run -d -p 8085:8080 --name swagger-converter swaggerapi/swagger-converter:latest
docker run -d -p 8086:8080 --name swagger-validator-v2 swaggerapi/swagger-validator-v2:latest

Hi Community,

I would like to present my last package OpenAPI-Suite, this is a set of tools to generate ObjectScript code from an OpenAPI specification version 3.0. In short, these packages allow to:

• Generate server-side class. It’s pretty similar to the generated code by ^%REST but the added value is the version 3.0 support.
• Generate HTTP client classes.
• Generate client production (business services, business operation, business process, Ens.Request, Ens.Response) classes.
• A web interface to generate and download the code or generate and compile directly on the server.
• Convert specification from version 1.x, 2.x to version 3.0.

Some time ago I introduced a new driver for Django for IRIS. Now, let's see how to use Django with IRIS in practice.
