I need to insert sheets into an excel workbook. This was challenging to do with just IRIS/Zen so I thought I could use the openpyxl Python library in an embedded Python method within IRIS. But I am encountering issues when executing Python code from within IRIS.

What I find really useful about IRIS when teaching my subject of Postrelational databases is the fact that it is a multi model database. Which means that I can actually go into architecture and structure and all that only once but then show the usage of different models (like object, document, hierarchy) using the same language and approach. And it is not a huge leap to go from an object oriented programming language (like C#, Java etc) to an object oriented database.

However, along with advantages (which are many) come some drawbacks when we switch from object oriented model to relational. When I say that you can get access to the same data using different models I need to also explain how it is possible to work with lists and arrays from object model in relational table. With arrays it is very simple - by default they are represented as separate tables and that's the end of it. With lists - it's harder because by default it's a string. But one still wants to do something about it without damaging the structure and making this list unreadable in the object model.

So in this article I will showcase a couple of predicates and a function that are useful when working with lists, and not just as fields.

Using this command return error

docker login -u="user" -p="password" containers.intersystems.com

Error:

WARNING! Using --password via the CLI is insecure. Use --password-stdin.

The "Ask Developer Community AI" tool is an excellent resource for studying for the certification. I asked it about each topic that will be covered in the test and the results are below.
Note: I classified each answer by the assertiveness that I consider as good, average and bad.

Note 2: The article has 4 parts, each one for an exam area.

The Interoperability user interface now includes modernized user experiences for the DTL Editor and Production Configuration applications that are available for opt-in in all interoperability products. You can switch between the modernized and standard views. All other Interoperability screens remain in the Standard user interface. Please note that changes are limited to these two applications and we identify below the functionality that is currently available.

I want to create a scheduler to montor the status of list of backend jobs ( say limit is 10). there going to be job queue. Need to pick a job form job queue when one of the current processing job is finished.
What is the best way to implement this

Hi Community,

Check out the new video that shows how to easily create solutions using InterSystems IRIS:

I'm exploring this right now: given a bunch of types defined as Pydantic models, how can I come up with an equivalent %RegisteredObject/%SerialObject and convert to/from (e.g., to support persistence and match validation as much as possible)?

People who know Python better than I do (e.g., your average undergraduate from this decade): is this a stupid idea or a cool idea? Has anyone else done this before?

If you want to know if a class about a topic already exists asking a simple natural language question, it is possible now. Download and run the application https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/langchain-iris-tool to know all about your project classes in a Chat.

Hi all,

As part of the development an API to know what is the instance of IRIS is connected, I've found some methods to know information about the server that can help you.

Get the server name: $SYSTEM.INetInfo.LocalHostName()

Get the server IP: $SYSTEM.INetInfo.HostNameToAddr($SYSTEM.INetInfo.LocalHostName())

Get the instance name: $PIECE($SYSTEM,":",2)

Hi,

I've a list of running scheduled task in task manger and would to crate a tasks to monitor if any of my tasks has stopped running, is there a function to check tasks status?

Thanks
