Question Touggourt · Oct 14, 2025

Hi 

How can I set a default value in a dataCombo?

I  tried 
ClientMethod onloadHandler() [ Language = javascript ]
{

 zenPage.getComponentById('mycombo').setProperty('selectedIndex',0);

 //zenSetProp('mycombo','selectedIndex',0);

}

and didn't work, I can not use the value property because I don't know what the values in my combo are going to because they loaded  OnCreateResultSet,  I'm only looking to make always the first value selected by default 

Thanks

To better understand Streams in IRIS I'll start with a short

History

In the beginning (before IRIS), there was just basic access to external devices.
The 4 commands OPEN, CLOSE, READ, WRITE still work and are documented 
by  Introduction to I/O in detail.
Especially for files, this is a direct access to your actual file system.
You have to take care of any status or other signal in your code.  
Also, any code conversion or similar is up to you. 

Class %Library.File aka %File offers a large collection of methods and queries 
for standard operations on directories and files.

Hi all,

It's me again 😁. In the pervious article Writing a REST api service for exporting the generated FHIR bundle in JSON, we actually generated a resource DocumentReference, with the content data encoded in Base64

Question!! Is it possible to write a REST service for decoding it? Because I am very curious what is the message data talking about🤔🤔🤔

OK, Let's start!

1. Create a new utility class datagen.utli.decodefhirjson.cls for decoding the data inside the DocumentReference
 

Class datagen.utli.decodefhirjson Extends %RegisteredObject
{
}

2. Write a Python function decodebase64docref to

Question Oliver Wilms · Sep 8, 2025

I am trying to add Plotly Bar graph in a div to a CSPpage. I am working in IRIS 2022.1. I created persistent class.

I copied relevant code into github repo:

oliverwilms/iris-python-plotly
 

iris-python-plotly/csp/otwPlotly.csp at master · oliverwilms/iris-python-plotly
 

Set tPlotlyDiv = ##class(dc.python.test).PlotlyDiv(trnYear,trnMonth)

ClassMethod PlotlyDiv(pTrnYear = 2025, pTrnMonth = 8) As %String
{
    Set importlib = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("importlib")
    Set plotdiv = ##class(%SYS.Python).Import("plotdiv")
    Do importlib.reload(plotdiv)
    Set div = plotdiv.

Technical Documentation — Quarkus IRIS Monitor System

1. Purpose and Scope

This module enables integration between Quarkus-based Java applications and InterSystems IRIS’s native performance monitoring capabilities.
It allows a developer to annotate methods with @PerfmonReport, which triggers IRIS’s ^PERFMON routines automatically around method execution, generating performance reports without manual intervention.


2. System Components

2.1 Annotation: @PerfmonReport

  • Defined as a CDI InterceptorBinding.
  • Can be applied to methods or classes.

This anthropic article made me think of several InterSystems presentations and articles on the topic of data quality for AI applications. InterSystems is right that data quality is crucial for AI, but I imagined there would be room for small errors, but this study suggests otherwise. That small errors can lead to big hallucinations. What do you think of this? And how can InterSystems technology help?

The ObjectScript language has incredible JSON support through classes like %DynamicObject and %JSON.Adaptor. This support is due to the JSON format's immense popularity over the previous dominance of XML. JSON brought less verbosity to data representation and increased readability for humans who needed to interpret JSON content. To further reduce verbosity and increase readability, the YAML format was created. The very easy-to-read YAML format quickly became the most popular format for representing configurations and parameterizations, due to its readability and minimal verbosity.

Deploying new IRIS instances can be a time-consuming task, especially when setting up multiple environments with mirrored configurations.

I’ve encountered this issue many times and want to share my experience and recommendations for using Ansible to streamline the IRIS installation process. My approach also includes handling additional tasks typically performed before and after installing IRIS.

This guide assumes you have a basic understanding of how Ansible works, so I won’t go into much detail on its fundamentals.

To manage the accumulation of production data, InterSystems IRIS enables users to manage the database size by periodically purging the data. This purge can apply to messages, logs, business processes, and managed alerts.

Please check the documentation for more details on the settings of the purge task:
https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=EGMG_purge#EGMG_purge_settings

An issue that many users ran into is still finding old messages after running the purge task for messages. For example, a user has a purge task for messages that has NumberOfDaysToKeep=45.
