Hello everyone, 

I am new to cache. I want to know is there any direct command to know how to find maximum number of subscripts in global A through direct command.

I mean the answer is 9 but how to check it using a direct command on terminal.

Thanks in advance!!

The OKR methodology (Objectives and Key Results or Objectives and Key Results) is used by the largest companies in the world (such as Google, Netflix, Spotify, BMW, Linkedin, etc.) for agile performance management. It was created in the 1970s by Andrew Grove, president of Intel, and introduced to the general public in his famous book “High Output Management”.

Around 1998 John Doerr, one of the world's top venture capitalists, after coming into contact with Intel's OKR, introduced the model to Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who started a small company called Google.

Sergey and Larry saw the great

Hi everyone - In IRIS we would like to arrange the access of two users in such a way that each has access to exactly one (his) database only.Which resource does this (%DB_%DEFAULT allows each of the two users access to both databases).If you create new resources (%DB_Database1 and %DB_Database2) and then add them to individual roles (each for the user to), the access for the users, for example, via a REST client does not give the desired separation (instead once Ok, other database 401 Unauthorized both OK).Is there something special to consider or a special resource that could do this or ..

Hello everyone

I am new to cache. In an interview i was asked how to optimize a sql query.

I just said I will create index on conditions which are present in where clause. But as per interviewer I should check How query plan is getting executed. This will help in optimizing Sql queries. 

I want to know what will be the answer for how to optimize SQL query in cache. 

Thanks in advance!!

Hello Everyone

I am new to cache. I know there are 2 types of methods in cache. One is Instance method (Which can be call through object creation of particular class) and other is Class methods (which can be call through ##Class(MyPackage.Car).CarModels()). 

I want to know the difference when to create a instance method vs when to create a class methods.

Thanks in advance!!.

How Can I Do It (rebuild index) using ObjectScript?

I wanted to write it as a comment to article of @Evgeny Shvarov . But it happens to be so long, so, decided to post it separately.

I would like to add a bit of clarification about how docker uses disk space and how to clean it.  I use macOS, so, everything below, is mostly for macOS, but docker commands suit any platform.

Hey Developers,

Welcome to the next InterSystems online programming competition: 

🏆 InterSystems IRIS Analytics Contest 🏆

Duration: August 23 - September 12, 2021

Total prize: $8,750

I see this available as an option on Docker Hub:

What ARM platform(s) is it designed for?  When I saw it available, I rather hoped it might work on a Raspberry Pi but it failed to start!  

docker pull store/intersystems/iris-community-arm64:2020.4.0.524.0

A quine is a computer program which takes no input and produces a copy of its own source code as its only output.

Wikipedia.

How about a fun challenge?

The task is to write a quine in InterSystems ObjectScript. It can be a class, or a method, or a routine, or just a line to be executed in a terminal. You decide!

Here's some resources you might consider useful:

• $TEXT
• XECUTE
• $XECUTE
• %Compiler.UDL.TextServices:GetTextAsString
• %Dictionary package
• Indirection

Hard mode: do not use source code access functions.

Here's my (extremely uninspired, I know) attempt:

Class User.Quine
{

/// do ##class(User.Quine).Test()
ClassMethod Test()
{
    set sc = ##class(%Compiler.UDL.TextServices).GetTextAsString($namespace, $classname(), .str)
    write str
}

}

It produces this output:

How many different ways of producing a quine are there in ObjectScript?

Hi everyone, 

Learn about iris-lockeddown, a version of the InterSystems IRIS data platform container designed to work with the most stringent container security policies:

⏯ Using Containers in Highly Secure Environments with IRIS Lockdown

New to IRIS. Installed docker container as per instructions. From my system I run:

# docker exec -it iris bash

and then try to start a terminal session, which fails

irisowner@2f54ebfbc52f:~$ irissession IRIS

How do I successfully start a terminal session?

I'm using Deferred Response.

After I have obtained a token, is it possible to retrieve initial request somehow?

This article explains how to use the InterSystems IRIS platform to write a basic IMAP client. First, we present an overview of IMAP, then we discuss the main IMAP commands and client implementation. Finally, we offer a simple use of this IMAP client on the IRIS interoperability application.

Note that this article isn’t a detailed IMAP explanation. For more detailed information, please check the references of this article.

IMAP Overview

The Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) lets users retrieve emails.

In Java we can use reflection to get the method arguments in an array, we can also get the name of argument. 

Do we have similar features in ObjectScript? 

Thanks! 

All French-speaking developers are friendly invited to follow a stream in the form of a journal.

Every first Thursday of the month at 12:00 (Paris time), we organize a 30-45 minutes stream on Youtube with the following format :

• News on technologies around InterSystems.
• A section called "Did you know it?" (tips and tricks on IRIS)
• A "dossier", where we develop a subject (example: How language gateway works).
• And we end the program with an Interview of an french developer

In my Business Operation I need to execute a bookkeeping method every X seconds.

How can I do that?

There are two workarounds (I dislike both):

1. Execute bookkeeping on process start - but there might be no requests at all
2. Create a BS that sends messages to BO every X seconds - it makes production more complex and also queues might not guarantee that the method is executed on schedule.

Thoughts?

Hi Developers!

Here're the technology bonuses for the InterSystems Analytics contest that will give you extra points in the voting.

Hi,

I wonder if anyone could help me.

I'm used to writing Microsoft SQL database queries, but at the moment I am also trying to write reports on an IRIS database (used to be cache) in Microsoft BIDS.

My chief headache is parameters. They don't behave the "normal way" in BIDS, in that you can't rename them. Therefore, referencing them in the main code is a nightmare for me.

Say my report has two parameters. If i want to refer to both in a dataset, I have to list them in the order they are in the report and both by using a question mark, ie:

WHERE
column1 = ?

and column 2 = ?

But if I only want to

Team,

I am trying to use Visual studio code(1.57) for class development and for compiling classes (intersystems tools extension) . It works.

Now, i would like to use TFVC (Team Foundation Version Control) for source control.  

I can see download option where i can manually download the Namespace as folder and classes as files.

Since whenever i save the file, it directly pushes the change to remote system. I am not sure where the local workspace is.

How to configure VS Code to track my changes and Check In / Check out the code.

If there are other ways to achieve source code control in TFVC please

Data transformations can be changed in Management portal, but the modifications are not synced with visual studio code. Classes are synced from VSCode to Iris. VSCode can take care of the git repository.

I am curious to know how people are developing data transformations on Iris with VSCode? Are you editing the DT classes with VSCode and forget about the UI? Are you exporting from management portal the files to VSCode directory? Are you using a source control hook?

Thank you
