Hey DC Members!

Get an overview of the new and enhanced capabilities of the language SDKs:

⏯ Language SDKs: New & Next 2022 @ Global Summit 2022

Docker 20.10.14 (released March 23, 2022) changes the Linux capabilities given to containers in a manner that is incompatible with the Linux capability checker in InterSystems IRIS 2021.1 (and up) containers. 

Users running Docker 20.10.14 on Linux will find that IRIS 2021.1+ containers will fail to start and the logs will incorrectly report that required Linux capabilities are missing.  For example:

[ERROR] Required Linux capability cap_setuid is missing.
[ERROR] Required Linux capability cap_dac_override is missing.
[ERROR] Required Linux capability cap_fowner is missing.

For one major reason: to avoid progressive technical and economic performance deterioration in an AIaaS setup characterized by increasing volume, velocity and variety of data flows (the famous Big Data’s “3 Vs”).

Let us take a closer look at the variety factor: if the variety of our data increases (e.g., data comes from an ever-increasing range of ever-evolving data-generating processes), this inevitably builds up demand for more and more functionality.

A new release of ZPM has been published 0.4.0

New in this release

• Added support for Deployed packages, publishing, and installation
• Support for multiple registry servers, e.g. public community registry, private corporate, and so on, including Python embedded code
• Ability to show all versions and package origin in search
• Fixed issue for packages with preload code
• The expanded limit for the length of arguments in Invoke

Hello everyone!

We are Longevica (https://www.longevica.com/) Healthtech, a Boston-based healthy aging digital health startup. Longevica was born as a research company back in 2009; we pioneered the screening of chemicals, which would drastically extend the life span. With 1000 screened pharmaceuticals and 20 000 mice experiments, we have identified specific compounds that, if taken daily, could extend life by years. This discovery leads to two questions: how to measure the effect of aging progress in real-time and how to make this a lifelong habit. This led us to the digital health market to create a new company Longevica HealthTech.

Hello!

Greetings from Chile, I have a question about IAM, I have a client who implements IAM in a QA environment, I configure a workspace and a series of routes (quite a few) and now he wants to export what has been created and take it to production (another server), which is the procedure to do it? Is it possible to export the workspace, routes, plugins, etc.?

Thank you!!

Hi, ObjectScript experts!

I know that there are auto-generated getter and setter methods for class properties in ObjectScript.

Are there auto-generated getter methods for class parameters?

Note: ********* The following is just a guideline! Every customer is different and will have different points ***************

Through our experience in Support helping customers, we have seen a lot of cases where not having a reasonable upgrade plan (documented) leads to unexpected problems with a Crisis priority. In some cases, we can fix the problem during the upgrade window, but not always, as some situations may require further investigation that can take days or even months!

A new release of ZPM has been published - ZPM 0.3.2.

New in this release:

• Various changes in the output command of help
• Changes in colors in the outputs
• Added an ability to add more repo types
• Added an ability to specify a post-installation message, with AfterInstallMessage tag in module.xml
• Added variable ${webroot}, which refers to url with host and port where the internal web-server is available
• Fixed issue when during install if no module was specified (issue #243)
• Fixed issue with uppercased FileCopy resource
• Some other minor bugfixes

History

Hi Community,

Have you already set up a mirrored environment? Does it have a private network, virtual IP address, and SSL configuration? After doing this a couple of times, I realized that it is long, and there are a lot of manual actions required to generate certificates and configure each IRIS instance. It is a pain in the neck for people who often have to do this.

grpc-iris-interop

The aim of this proof of concept is to show how the gRPC protocl can be implemented with the IRIS ineroperabilty module.

architecture

On this schema, we can see that the gRPC Service is hosted by IRIS.

This service must invoke the IRIS interoperability module. For that it transforms the protobuf messages to IRIS messages.

The gRPC client is host by a Flask server for demo purpose, the gRPC client can also be invoke by the python script.

syntax = "proto3";

This is the eighth in a series of releases that are part of the developer preview program for 2022.2 Future preview releases are expected to be updated biweekly and we will add features as they are ready.  Many updates, fixes and enhancements  have been added in 2022.2, in SQL management, cloud integration, Kafka and JMS adapters, the SQL Loader, and other areas. Please share your feedback through the Developer Community so we can build a better product together.

Hi Firneds

I have few odscodes in Lookup table named "AllowLT" .

Now I need to continue if I found value in lookup table or stop it. For that I have colleting the value form lookup table for input HL7 message OBR:21  value.

I know if found in lookup table it will return 1 or 0 . If not found what it will return below line? to return 0 in case , given key not available in lookup table , what I need to write?

Set isallowed = ##CLASS(Ens.Util.FunctionSet).Lookup("AllowLT", pRequest.GetValueAt("OBR:21"))

if isallowed=1

{

}

else

{

}

Hi,

I have IRIS Studio installed on my PC and I want to connect to my IRIS DB on mirrored servers.

What TCP ports are required to be opened on my firewall between IRIS Studio and my IRIS DB?

Hi

So, I have a zen toolbar and I've figured on how to populate with menu items. How do I add a hyperlink to menu items - I've been all over the support docs, and don't seem to be able to find anything.

Also, I see that this component is marked as deprecated - is there a recommended replacement?

Andy

Hello,

I am getting the following error , and not sure how to get passed this.
We have removed storage on the classes , did a clean compile and still we get the error below on some of the classes
 Compile FAILURE
ERROR! Storage on class [ MyClass] modified by storage compiler, developer should have run ^build to make sure all storage is updated correctly and saved to Perforce

Any Idea how to resolve this or what to look for ?

Regards

I am trying to split a HL7 message (RDE O11) into several messages depending on how many RXC segments there are in the message (Two RXC segments would need to two separate HL7 messages)

I have seen a couple of posts regarding this but am struggling with my BP using ObjectScript, the idea is to take the receiving message and split this before passing it onto another BP

Here is my code so far 

Class BDROWA.Transform.OVMO Extends Ens.BusinessProcess [ ClassType = persistent ]

{ Method OnRequest(pRequest As EnsLib.HL7.Message, Output pResponse As Ens.Response) As %Status

{ Set RXCCount = pRequest.

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.

Organizing code is software architecture, not everyone has the desire or knowledge to create such a solution.
To do this, many programming languages offer what we call Frameworks.

Hi folks!

We have a bunch of templates on OEX that provide a handy foundation for building a particular application with IRIS.  And the basic principle of each and every template is that we take vanilla IRIS images, load code, and files into the image using Dockerfile, and create a new docker image as a solution. And then we develop running this image and rebuilding it when returning to development.

Some developers ask me why we need to build the docker image to work with the code. Indeed, if at the end of the day I need to develop a ZPM package and not a docker image why don't run the vanilla image and load the code and everything in it? 

The problem I have with the building image approach is that often I can wait a lot to build an image and it fails on some Objectscript problem in the source that I cannot fix as the image is not building. and 

Any thoughts? How do you develop with docker?

Hi Developers,

Python has a large and powerful ecosystem that contains thousands of libraries and packages available, especially in data science.

Therefore, I wanted to have a first try in using a recent feature of IRIS called Embedded Python, to simply import a python library called datetime, generate data with a timestamp component and persist it in InterSystems IRIS for Health Data Platform. The same will work on IRIS Data Platform as well.

Hello,

I'm looking for a way to write a stored procedure or something to return a ResultSet with Embedded Python.

My goal is the following:

I have a Goal table with a Text field that is free text.

CREATE Table Goal (
    Id int,
    Text VARCHAR(5000)
);

I would like to create a procedure that returns all the entities (in the iKnow sense) in a new Entity column.

Python code, i would like to use :

import iknowpy

engine = iknowpy.iKnowEngine()

# Row to parse
text = 'This is a test of the Python interface to the iKnow engine. another sentence to test this program with.'
engine.

Welcome to the next chapter of my CI/CD series, where we discuss possible approaches toward software development with InterSystems technologies and GitLab.

Today, let's talk about interoperability.

Issue

When you have an active interoperability production, you have two separate process flows: a working production that processes messages and a CI/CD process flow that updates code, production configuration and system default settings.

Clearly, CI/CD process affects interoperability. But questions are:

• What exactly happens during an update?
• What do we need to do to minimize or eliminate production downtime during an update?

Trying to identify which records in the %SYS.Audit table are fails.

Eg, as user "WORKER", I run an attempted a grant, the terminal returns:

SQL> GRANT SELECT ON newschema.patients TO COORDINATOR
[S1000][Iris ODBC][State : S1000][Native Code 112]
[libirisodbc35.so]
[SQLCODE: <-112>:<Access violation>]
[Location: <ServerLoop>]
[%msg: <User WORKER does not have required privileges to grant the privilege(s)>]
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLExecute
 

but the record in the audit table gives

Description: "SQL GRANT Statement"

EventData: "GRANT SELECT ON newschema.

Hi Community,

Let's meet together at the online meetup with the winners of the InterSystems Interoperability Contest – a great opportunity to have a discussion with the InterSystems Experts team as well as our contestants.

As the title says, when I use the "Go To Definition (F12)" option, it opens the definition in read only mode. Is there some way to either directly make the go to option editable or can i turn the read only version into an editable version? I end up needing to open the file directly and then manually going to the method definition myself.

For quite some time InterSystems IRIS supports such thing as Merging CPF. So, with help of this it should be possible to define only desired changes in configuration. And get them applied even with vanilla Docker image. 

And I though it could be useful when used with Dockerfile. Use this way to configure IRIS during docker build instead of using Installer manifest.
