InterSystems IRIS is a Complete Data Platform
InterSystems IRIS gives you everything you need to capture, share, understand, and act upon your organization’s most valuable asset – your data.
As a complete platform, InterSystems IRIS eliminates the need to integrate multiple development technologies. Applications require less code, fewer system resources, and less maintenance.

Hi Devs!

Recently, I needed to create templates for newsletters.
I couldn't find any tools, so I decided to use the CSP (Caché Server Pages) to build the templates.

Let's figure out how to make a newsletter similar to Weekly OEX Digest.


Weekly OEX Digest

There are strict requirements for HTML email messages.
Basic requirements:

  1. The page should be static;
  2. You have to use inline styles for mailer compatibility (so much code);
  3. Use custom fonts, some images, etc.

Question Sehinde Raji · Dec 29, 2021

I am a newbie who is trying to learn how to set up a basic connection to Iris using a node js application. I am astounded at the lack of documentation there is on how to do this and even more concerning there are a few errors within the documentation. For example I am on the Native API application within the below link.

https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cl…

And it says that you need to create a directory the thing is that it doesn't state which directory this needs to be or any other history.

Question Andreas Schneider · Dec 30, 2021

Hi all,
I try to build a little project for the dataset contest, you can find it here on github: Openflights dataset
My plan is to use just plain SQL. So I've made a few experiments with the new feature LOAD DATA.

Unfortunately all loads produce errors like:  
 Error: [SQLCODE: <-400>:<Fatal error occurred>]
[Error: <<UNDEFINED>zExecute+83^%sqlcq.OPENFLIGHTS.cls4.1 *%qparsets>]
[Location: <ServerLoop>]

The statements I use looks like this:

 

This happend with the preview release "IRIS Version 2021.2.0.617". While this error occurs, most rows are written to the database, but some rows are missing.

The XData (https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=GOBJ_XDATA) is a powerful feature to set documentation and metadata information for classes and methods. The %CSP.REST class uses XDATA to mapping REST calls (https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=GREST_csprest), so in this article you will see how to use XData into your apps as code, not only as documentation.

When you write XData comments/definitions, the IRIS store it into %Dictionary.ClassDefinition (for classes) %Dictionary.MethodDefinition (for methods).

Hi

I am a very experienced Ensemble and IRIS developer who has spent his entire career either working for InterSystems or with their products. I was a Senior Sales Engineer with InterSystems for 14 years with a further four years working for InterSystems TrakHealth. I started working for the InterSystems UK office and from there I spent several years travelling to InterSystems offices in Europe, Scandinavia, the Middle East, Israel and eventually ending up in the South African office. I moved back to South Africa in 2001.

Question Andy Stobirski · Dec 29, 2021

Hi

I'm using a class which extends %XML.Adaptor adaptor and I want to create an XML file with multiple namespaces, like the following:

<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
</soap>

However, I don't see how to do this with the code I have. So far, I have

Class GMMHTIE.Docman.Messages.Request.RequestWrapper Extends (%Persistent, %XML.Adaptor){ Parameter XMLNAME = "soap:Envelope";
 Parameter NAMESPACE = "http://www.w3.

For those that, at some point, need to test what means that of ECP for horizontal escalability (computing power and/or users and processes concurrency), but they're lazy o have no much time to build the environment, configure the server nodes, etc..., I've just published in Open Exchange the app/sample OPNEx-ECP Deployment .

Question Ephraim Malane · Dec 23, 2021

Hi all

We are looking into automating worklist report SQL queries that we run manually on InterSystems IRIS platform but we would like to have them run on a Java application.

This means we must have a way to get our java application to talk to IRIS in order for those queries to run. Please advise on how to go about this?

Regards,

Ephraim Malane

Just wanted to give visibility to a place in GitHub where everybody can publish Enhancement Requests, Ideas and Innovations that would be great to have in our InterSystems Technology ecosystem.

If you want to add your enhancement request, or take a look and see if there is already there and vote for it, contribute, etc..., click on this link. That doesn't guarantee that Product Management decides to go on that direction, they have to balance many things to decide our products roadmap, but having the direct input from our Community is invaluable.

Come on! Go for it and make your suggestions!

What about having your IRIS REST APIs scanned every push you did and being reported on possible vulnerabilities? This is what I am going to show you in this article.

Recently, we had the Security Contest with amazing applications and examples showing how to improve security on your IRIS solutions. One of such examples was the zap-api-scan-sample, made by me and my colleague Henrique Dias. Our application shows how to use the OWASP ZAP API scanner to perform security tests on your REST APIs OpenAPI definitions generated by IRIS.

Have you tried the InterSystems learning platform lab for IRIS IntegratedML? In that lab you can train and test a model on a readmission dataset and be able to predict when a patient will be readmitted or not, or calculate its probability of being readmitted.

You can try it without any installation on your system, all you have to do is start a virtual lab environment (Zeppelin) and play it around!
