Since I started using Claude Code, my motivation to create things has skyrocketed.

Previously, even if I wanted to build something, actually doing the coding felt like a hassle, so unless there was a very strong need, I rarely went as far as programming. But now, if I just jot down the specifications, Claude Code handles the rest automatically, resulting in a dramatic improvement in productivity.

I come from a generation native to ObjectScript, so I used to feel some hesitation when it came to switching to Python.

Claude Code has a strong understanding of IRIS, but unexpected issues still occur.

The first issue is one that has already happened several times and is likely to continue occurring if not properly addressed.

In IRIS, the collation for string data (%String) is set to SQLUPPER by default. As a result, when data is retrieved via SQL, it may be returned in uppercase (for example, when sorting and aggregating with GROUP BY).

Hello,

can someone confirm to me if image for docker deployment of IRIS are ready for production? Also what about Healtshare products?

Thank you.

Hello all,

I have a EnsLib.HTTP.GenericMessage inbound from a webhook with a GC stream.

My router is defined as the following:

I am trying to built a Task that kicks off a Workflow to pull data into HSPD, and when I try to test the Task

I keep getting TestTask+3^OSU.Workday.TerminationsTask.1 *%Exception.StatusException ERROR <Ens>ErrConfigDisabled: Configuration item 'OSU.DataSource.Workday.TermService' is disabled

But within the Namespace the OSU.DataSource.Workday.TermService shows enabled.

Here is my Task that I am using...

Class OSU.Workday.TerminationsTask Extends %SYS.

Hi all,
I'm trying to learn Intersystems Iris. And I have a question.
How can I use left arrow key with if function. Also if it is possible, teach me that how can I make backspace to edit data?
P.S Sorry for bad English.
new var,key,curPos
w $char(27)_"[2J"_$char(27)_"[H"
s var="12345abcde"
s curPos=$length(var)+1
w $char(27)_"[3;1H"_"First var= "_var
for {
read *key
#; Left Arrow Key
if key="?" {
}
#; Right Arrow Key
elseif key="?" {
}
#; Backspace
elseif key=8 {
}
elseif key=9 {
quit
}
}
w !,"Last var= ",var
Kind Regards,
Ikh

This time, it’s not really programming per se, but we are using React as a front-end development tool for IRIS. When using a web development framework—not limited to React—one key consideration is which CSS framework to use. Up until now, we’ve been using Bootstrap, which is the standard and the easiest to get started with.

However, while it’s easy to use, I felt that it offers limited flexibility for customization. That said, even if we were to switch to another CSS framework, learning it and rewriting everything from scratch would be a significant effort, so we left things as they were.

Is your source control treating your InterSystems IRIS environment like a simple collection of files? Most source control tools lack the native intelligence to handle InterSystems IRIS, which is why your code is treated as such. 

Deltanji is different. It understands how code and other artifacts are stored within IRIS and can manage them directly. This eliminates the friction that other tools introduce to the process. 

Join us for an InterSystems-hosted webinar to see how Deltanji provides an enterprise-grade source control solution that is tightly integrated with your IRIS environment.

We are working on Disk Consolidation and looking at Class/Globals that are rather large and not being cleaned up by the nightly Purge process. We have implemented DeleteHelper - A Class to Help with Deleting Referenced Persistent Classes | IDC on any Custom Data Classes, and Business Processes (BPL).

We have a bunch of Data Classes, BPL's, and Operations that connect to external MS SQL Server using JDBC to query or write data to using Stored Procedures and Queries. All that Query external tables are using EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot, and this is being written to ^Ens.AppData which is not cleaned up.

A Continuous Training (CT) pipeline formalises a Machine Learning (ML) model developed through data science experimentation, using the data available at a given point in time. It prepares the model for deployment while enabling autonomous updates as new data becomes available, along with robust performance monitoring, logging, and model registry capabilities for auditing purposes.

InterSystems IRIS already provides nearly all the components required to support such a pipeline. However, one key element is missing: a standardised tool for model registry.

For software engineers and data architects evaluating data platforms for risk and compliance consolidation in financial services.

Overview

Financial institutions typically run separate applications for risk management and regulatory compliance, creating fragmented data landscapes that are difficult to query and expensive to maintain. InterSystems IRIS is a distributed HTAP data platform that allows organizations to consolidate these systems onto a single, unified data layer.

Hi folks!

Is there an easy setting, e.g., to merge.cpf so that it will disable the management portal on a deployed IRIS container?

The idea is to let only one of my particular web apps be available and everything else not even accessible on IRIS.

Motivation

Why do we need this?

1. Lack of Compiled Context: AI tools only see source code; they don't know what the final compiled routine looks like.

2. Macro Hallucination: Because AI doesn't see our #include files or system macros, it often makes them up, wasting time during debugging.

3. The Documentation Gap: Deep logic optimization often requires understanding internal macros that aren't fully covered in public documentation.

4. Manual Overhead: Currently, the only way to fix this is to manually use the IRIS VS Code extension to find the "truth" in the routine.

Anyone up for a round of golf?

Are you fed up of making a machine write code for you? Do you miss thinking through problems yourself? Then you are in luck, this round, I propose adding the rule of no AI use. obviously its a game of honor with no prize, so I shan't be enforcing this, but you'll know... 

Challenge:

Create a function which takes a string as a parameter, and returns the length of thelongest sequence of alternating consonants and vowels. The sequence is broken by having two vowels or two consonants in a row.

Hi everyone, This is me again🥲...

Today I want to share a sad story, which is my Deepsee Web is not working properly.😭

The story is like that. 

Initially, I have a dashboard on monitoring how much I spend on the sky (by time chart) and look like the following originally

Introduction

FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) is the modern standard for storing and exchanging clinical data. But once your data is in a FHIR server, how do you actually explore it? FHIR data is stored as JSON — powerful, but not practical to read directly. I wanted a tool where you could click on a patient, see their conditions, medications, lab results, and more — in a clean, readable format. So I built the FHIR Patient Viewer.

How It Works

The app runs entirely in Docker and connects directly to an InterSystems IRIS for Health FHIR server.

Introduction — The Problem with AI Streaming in ObjectScript

Today, I would like to introduce a problem I encountered and the solution I found when integrating AI APIs into an ObjectScript application. My initial tests were successful, yet somewhat frustrating.

The HTTP call worked; the request was properly sent to my LLM APIs. But then, silence... a long wait. Eventually, the entire response arrived as a single block.

Technically, it worked, but the user experience was disappointing compared to a ChatGPT session.
