Needing to know how to define a property that can either be sent in my response as 

"members": null,

or 

"members": [
                {
                    "dob": "1905-05-01",
                    "firstName": "BOB",
                    "middleName": "T",

Over the last couple of weeks the Solution Architecture team has been working to finish off our 2019 workload: this included open-sourcing the Readmission Demo that was brought to HIMSS last year, so we could make it available to anyone looking for an interactive-way of exploring the tooling provided by IRIS.

Introduction

This is iris-key-uploader a frontend in Angular with it's rest API.

The aim of this project is to easily import key file to Iris from a web ui.

Why this project

Unfortunatly the IRIS panel to change key doesn't give the opportunity to upload the license.

As you can see, you can only browse from the server side.

What if, you don't have a direct access to it ?

You would like to have a simple web page to upload the new key and activate it.

This is the purpose of this project.

Demo

UI

http://localhost:52773/keyuploader/index.html

Build

Run the server

docker-compose up -d

Install with ZPM

Question Jim Winski · Apr 27, 2021

I'm attempting a first-time installation of IRIS for Health on my home Mac for eval purposes. I want to be able to install IRIS and Ensemble. I downloaded the package but it doesn't come with instructions, and I'm running into issues. Is there a straightforward install instruction set online, or does anyone have one you can pass along?

Thanks, Jim Winski

Like hardware hosts, virtual hosts in public and private clouds can develop resource bottlenecks as workloads increase. If you are using and managing InterSystems IRIS instances deployed in public or private clouds, you may have encountered a situation in which addressing performance or other issues requires increasing the capacity of an instance's host (that is, vertically scaling).

Announcement George James · Apr 16, 2021

Announcing gj :: locate.  A simple extension for VS Code that will help you get to the source of your errors.

In VS Code, using either the Serenji extension or the basic InterSystems objectscript extension, this small add-on will open the appropriate class or routine and position you at the exact line where an error occurred.

No more tedious counting of lines to find <UNDEFINED>zCredit+206^Ledger.Invoice.1.  Instead, with gj :: locate you can get there with just a couple of clicks.

This 20 second video tells it all:

 

Download now and enjoy getting to the source of your errors.

Hello Everyone,

We are currently in process of implementing REST APIs using IRIS and we are also looking at using Intersystems API Manager. 

Our aim is to implement a Microservices Architechture where Services are small in size,  bounded by contexts, autonomously developed, and independently deployable. 

We are following a spec first approach where we are first defining the API specs into Swagger Hub and using IRIS API Management Service to build the REST classes i.e. the Specification class, Dispatch class and Implementation Class.

You may think it isn’t too difficult to get from label+offset^routine to the actual source line responsible for the error.  For an expert it isn't that hard... most of the time.  But there are enough oddities and special rules that even an expert can get it wrong, whilst spending a lot of time trying to get there.

gj :: locate is the latest tool from George James Software – it debugs any error, class or routine by converting the location of an error in compiled .int code to the corresponding location in your source, and then taking you right there.

Image this scenario…

Question Mike Yackanich · Apr 16, 2021

I am attempting to POST a Bundle containing a resource to an ISC-based Resource Repository. Documentation says "batch" interaction is fully supported - so I assume this is possible.

I post to the FHIR base URL, but I get the following back: " The requested URL /customfhir/r4 was not found on this server."

The bundle I use to post to create a patient resource is very simple (see below). I am using a request.method of POST because I want the Resource Repo to create a new fhir resource id.

Question Rick Prichett · Apr 14, 2021

Getting the error "ERROR #9406: Unexpected format for value of field, alternateId, using class base mapping" in the trace. I have it defined as:

Class CDSM.MemberAPI.Response2 Extends (%Persistent, %XML.Adaptor, %JSON.Adaptor) [ Language = objectscript ]
{Property alternateId As %String;

  Property benefitPlanId As %String;

and the reply is sending:

[
    {
        "alternateId": "",
        "benefitPlanId": "FLSN4444",

Is there a way to handle the empty fields in the reply that is sent back?

Question Marlin Mixon · Apr 14, 2021

Is there a way to automatically transform Object Script arrays to Python lists?  This code results in a list of arrays

Iter0 =  dbnative.iterator("HS.Data.OIDMapD")
for subscript, value in Iter0.items():
    print(f"subscript={subscript}, value={value}")

Here is the result:

subscript=1, value=2.16.840.1.113883.3.86ISCInterSystems Corporation

I suppose it would be too hard to parse this into a list, I was just wondering if there was a function provided to make it convenient and proper.

Thanks,

Marlin Mixon

Question James Hipp · Apr 14, 2021

Hello,

I believe that the Perl and Python bindings that exist on Cache / Ensemble do not exist on IRIS for Health 2020.1 ... is that correct?

Is there any similar documentation and samples (like below) , that show an example of how to run a basic Perl or Python script that connects with ODBC or whatever the recommended way?

Question Cindy Fawcett · Apr 12, 2021

I am working with InterSystems API Manager product and I'm trying to solve an authentication problem.  In our implementation, API Manager accepts basic authentication.  One of the endpoints accepts OAuth2.  The request coming into API Manager is FHIR and needs to have basic auth in the header.  The OAuth token is passed to API Manager as a parameter.  I want to send FHIR to the endpoint with a Bearer Token in the header instead of the basic auth that came into API Manager.  Has anyone used a transformation plug-in to solve a similar issue?  I'm trying to solve this problem in API Manager

Question Rick Prichett · Apr 11, 2021

In this case I am trying to just send a simple error to the log in the event the try is not successful.  Have tried a few ideas I have found on the forum but none have worked as of yet.  

   try {
          // Write facility Details to cloned message
      set newPV139 = (FacilityNPI1 _"^" _FacilityName _"^" _ServFacility _"^" _FacilityTIN _"^" _FacilityAddressLine1 _"^" _FacilityCity _"^" _FacilityState _"^" _FacilityZip _"^" _CountyName _"^" _FacilityPhone)
      set newPV139insert = newrequest.SetValueAt(newPV139, "PV1:39(1)")
            } 
                 catch exception {

            }

Question Utsavi Gajjar · Apr 9, 2021

Hello,

I am trying to figure out if we can extend a business process in IRIS. My Use Case is that I am developing RESTful Interfaces and my each REST Interface needs to go through certain processes before getting to the actual action.  

e.g. I have 2 REST Interfaces, GetPatient and GetEncounter. Both of these need to invoke "GetToken" Business Operation to go to the Authentication server to get an authentication token before they go ahead and hit the Business Operation to Get the data i.e. Patient or Encounter.

In Studio you could open a class directly via it's name, without having to traverse the package tree with multiple clicks until arriving at the desired class.

You would Ctrl + O or (File -> Open) and be able to simply type in the class name, for example:

You press Enter, and viola - the class is opened.

How do you achieve this in VSCode?

Discussion Jamie Kantor · Mar 30, 2021

Hi, everyone, 

We in InterSystems Learning Services are compiling and reviewing different non-InterSystems materials for learning various technologies. To this end, can I ask:

-What are your favorite learning resources (books, courses, etc) that have helped you with the development and implementation of the FHIR standard and why do you like them? 

Thanks, Jamie Kantor
