Hi Community...I am trying figure this out any help appreciated. Thanks in advance

The service is a file passthrough that picks up a  PDF and then uses the BPL  code below to create the rest wrapper and sends the stream data. I am not grabbing the stream from the inbound correctly,  "request.Stream" or "request.StreamFC" always produces the following  error.

Here is what is sent and returned in the message..

request:

<Stream>

15@%Library.FileCharacterStream

</Stream>

response:

<Stream>

Unable to load xml from message: Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1.

</Stream>

⏯ Performance Testing with InterSystems Tools

Hi Developers!

A question to those who use VSCode to code InterSystems ObjectScript.

Suppose you have the ObjectScript code on IRIS server and you want to export it into the desired folder.

And you have VSCode connected to the server.

What is the way to tell VSCode that I want to export classes into some particular folder in /package/class.cls way?

E.g. into:

/project_folder/src/cls/Package/class.cls

and project_folder is opened in VSCode as the folder of the project.

Hi Community,

How can FHIR coexist and integrate with other protocols?

 My requirement is to get the website visitors IP address and location. I tried an external API . Always it's returning server IP and location not visitors IP.  

set req=##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New()
  set req.Server="api.ipstack.com"
  set req.ContentType="application/json"                                           
  set sc=req.Get("/check?access_key= key here")
  set data=req.HttpResponse.Data
  
 Write data.Read(30000)

Can someone help me to resolve this issue? or any in-build method is there in Iris to get the IP.

Have to create a production operation and service for this?

Reference: sample LDAP code routine LDAP.mac

Some IF statements reference macro $$$WindowsCacheClient as a boolean flag to mark if the client calling the LDAP server is running Windows. Other IF statements reference $$$ISWINDOWS. Are they not the same thing? That is, does the routine need $$$WindowsCacheClient at all?

Examples:

#define WindowsCacheClient 1

 if $$$WindowsCacheClient,$$$WindowsLDAPServer {
s Status=##Class(%SYS.LDAP).Binds(LD,"",$lb(Username,Domain,Password),$$$LDAPAUTHNEGOTIATE)

gj :: locate was the entry from George James Software for the Developer Tools competition back in April 2021. When an ObjectScript error is reported, gj :: locate takes the .int line location and navigates you directly to the line in the source file where the error originated. Over the past few months we've found it a very useful tool when it comes to debugging, especially when used alongside the Serenji debugger in Visual Studio Code.

Our first update, version 1.1.0, now includes support for multi-root workspaces. This enables gj :: locate to be used with every workspace folder. If your VS Code workspace has more than one root level folder, connecting to different namespaces or perhaps different servers, then gj :: locate will determine which workspace folder is current and locate the source code in that folder. If your workspace doesn't have any files open then gj :: locate will prompt you to select a folder from a pick-list.

This will particularly benefit VS Code power users who have workspaces with simultaneous connections to multiple namespaces, on multiple different IRIS and Caché servers.

If you would like to try it out then you can download it from the VS Code marketplace. Or if you’re already a user, then gj :: locate will automatically update. Let us know how you're getting on with it!

The release of InterSystems IRIS 2021.1 introduces Adaptive Analytics. To get started with a familiar InterSystems IRIS BI sample cube, we have created a HoleFoods Sample Application for Adaptive Analytics. This Sample Application is available on Open Exchange. There is also a learning services course available to learn more about Adaptive Analytics.

I'm working with a REST API that will sometimes rate limit our requests by returning an HTTP 429 Too Many Requests status code. Is there a good way in a business operation to handle this by throttling our requests until we get a success response? My initial thoughts are:

• Reduce the pool size on the business operation to 1 so all requests are first in, first out.
• If the API returns a 429 response, set %rate = $get(%rate,1)*2, then hang %rate, then send the request to the back of the queue.
• If the API returns a success response, kill %rate

I'm wondering if there's a better way to do this. Part

We’re looking for Python developers to participate in our Embedded Python Early Access Program!  If you (or someone you know) are a Python developer and are interested, please contact us via the email address below.

InterSystems is bringing the power and simplicity of Python to IRIS.  We’re hard at work integrating Python directly into the IRIS kernel, making it a full peer to ObjectScript.

• Use any of thousands of pre-built Python libraries
• Easy access to IRIS from Python, and Python from ObjectScript
• Mixed ObjectScript and Python classes

I have created a custom role in IRIS for users to provide limited view-only access for querying tables in the HSANALYTICS namespace. WinSQL has been installed on a Windows server (WinSQL Lite version 14.0.244.784) and an ODBC connection entry has been created in WinSQL for the users to log in and run SQL queries. The custom role provides the roles/resources included in the attached file. The WinSQL System DSN entry defined is:

Health Insight UAT HSANALYTICS    64-bit    InterSystems ODBC35

The ODBC35 driver is defined as:

Hi

I have had customers who would rather use a backup application rather than using IRIS Backups. In my experience, I have tried a number of free backup tools and I have paid for at least two "very good Backup Tools" and all of them have failed to create usable backups especially if my Ensemble/IRIS Instances are still running and even if Ensemble/IRIS have been shut down I have found that the backups created by these tools have around an 80% chance of being able to restore a system (let's assume that I am not trying to backup core Windows elements like the Registry and Windows system files).

Hi colleagues!

Is there a way to export globals in XML if I have the access to Management Portal or any other web app?

Currently, it gives the option to export into gof format only.

Hello Respected members,

I am new with InterSystems IRIS , want to setup the environment on RHEL 7.5 with multiple lun layouts (separate LVM for DB , Journal, and WIJ), 

I would like to get some help in setting up the same, as far as I know, the installation will go through on a single directory ( I did not see any option to chose path/directory for DB's or WIJ /journals), hence after installation I would like to move my DB's to separate LVM and WIJ on another LVM set

Please suggest or share the steps for the  same document if any for the same, that will be really helpful, Thanks

⏯ Automating InterSystems IRIS Instances Configuration

We’ve published an update to the Serenji debug extension for Visual Studio Code, making it ready for the Workplace Trust feature in VS Code 1.57.

This allows the Serenji ObjectScript editor to work without restrictions across all workspaces and, by bringing it in line with the VS Code update, only allows the debugging feature to be used in trusted workspaces.

Hi all, I am new to IS Objectscript and I would appreciate some assistance regarding this. 

I am trying to find out how to count the number of elements within a dynamic abstract object and I am having some trouble using the size method.

Introduction

We’ve already addressed the topic of why object/type representation is superior to SQL for implementing subject area models. And those conclusions and facts are as true now as they have ever been. So why should we take a step back and discuss technologies that drag abstractions back to the global level, where they had been in the pre-object and pre-type era? Why should we encourage the use of spaghetti code, which results in bugs that are hard to track down, and which relies only on virtuoso developer skills? 

There are several arguments in favor of transmitting data via SQL/REST/GraphQL-based APIs as opposed to representing them as types/objects:
