#InterSystems IRIS

Hi,

Im wondering if its possible to pass a SQL query through to the Power BI IRIS Connector? I can't currently see an option - and have tried through advance editor to use M Query syntax to attempt this with no luck. 

Has anyone else in the community had any luck or know if this is supported?

Thanks.

IRIS use MIRROR to ensure the continuous operation of the hospital business, but MIRROR synchronization data does not contain (web application configuration information, task plans, sql gateway, etc.), about the synchronization of such information do we have a better solution to solve this problem?

It is common to test a connection sending a general SQL instruction to the database, in Oracle we send select 1 from dual, for example, and in IRIS what the best option?

Hey everyone.

I have a process where I create a new %Stream.FileCharacter object, specify the filename (including it's path), write data to the stream, and then save. However for some reason, if the user account does not have write access to the directory, the %Save method is still returning true even though it was unable to actually write the file to the folder.

The location is a UNC path, and I'm wondering if this is tripping me up?

Hi 

I have a class in several namespaces. This class is what I call a common component in that it is a class that performs a certain set of functions that are common to a number of Interfaces. In this example the class is essentially a Message Queue. When a Data Event is created in my source database I want to invoke the CreateMessage() class method in all of Interface namespaces.

The common component class has a name DFI.Common.Queue.ODSMessageQueue. I can inherit the class into one or more classes e.g. DFI.Common.Queue.Interface1MessageQueue, DFI.Common.Queue.Interface2MessageQueue.

Hi Community,

We're pleased to invite you to the online meetup with the winners of the InterSystems Grand Prix Contest!

Date & Time: Friday, March 12, 2021 – 10:00 EDT

What awaits you at this virtual Meetup? 

• Our winners' bios.
• Short demos on their applications.
• An open discussion about technologies being used, bonuses, questions. Plans for the next contests.

In my previous article, we reviewed possible use-cases for macros, so let’s now proceed to a more comprehensive example of macros usability. In this article we will design and build a logging system.

Logging system

Logging system is a useful tool for monitoring the work of an application that saves a lot of time during debugging and monitoring. Our system would consist of two parts:

• Storage class (for log records)
• Set of macros that automatically add a new record to the log

I'm trying to setup a REST server with CORS support. I have created a class that handles a specific part of the service (printer control). This class I have referenced in my main REST class by adding <Map Prefix="/print" Forward="myClass.PrintAPI" />

My main class does have its own <Route>s and handles CORS requests perfectly. But in my subclass OnHandleCorsRequest() is only run when requesting from same origin and never run when making a CORS request. I have set Parameter HandleCorsRequest = "true" in both my main REST class and the subclass.

Can anyone point me in the right direction on what

Hi, folks!

Sometimes I need to schedule a task programmatically.

And in 99% I need having some class method be periodically called.

And I want to have the schedule be started by one line. As a job in crontab.

I decided to introduce such a module with iris-cron-task module.

See the details below!

During some consulting activity, I found at the client's site CACHEAUDIT database of more than 100 GB size. The reason was simple: several processes produced a great amount of %System/%System/OSCommand audit records due to frequent external calls ($zf(-100,...)). As it is well-known, those events can be easily disabled systemwide, while this can be hardly considered secure enough. Reducing the number of days before audit cleanup from default 62 to some reasonable figure (e.g. 15) seems to be a better solution, but...

This case inspired a dream: we have a facility to switch off journaling on

Purpose

Most CloudFormation articles are Linux-based (no wonder), but there seems to be a demand for automation for Windows as well. Based on this original article by Anton, I implemented an example of deploying a mirror cluster to Windows servers using CloudFormation.I also added a simple walk through.
The complete source code can be found here.

Update: 2021 March 1 I added a way to connect to Windows shell by public key authentication via a bastion host as a one-liner.

We have multiple NTE segments in the ADT message.  I need to loop through all of the NTE segments looking for "NAVIRADTHPT" in the NTE-4 field.  I have yet to get this to work using the following code.  

HL7.(NTE:4()) Contains "<NAVIRADTHPT>"

Here's how the segments look.

NTE|1||This patient is currently being seen for radiation therapy.|AHRADTHPT||20210223093342
NTE|2||This patient is currently being seen for radiation therapy.|NAVIRADTHPT||20210223113634

I've also tried it this way with no luck.

HL7.(NTE():4) Contains "<NAVIRADTHPT>"

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can a license be reserved for a specific user or group of users? So if I have 20 available licenses, only allow other users to use 19 of them while keeping one open for this specific user?

Hi all

I've been looking into how to convert some images with IRIS and saw some recommendations on the forums around using image magick.

However I can't seem to get this working using ZF100 and on windows server and I'm wondering if I'm missing something really obvious as I've not used IRIS to call third party applications before.

If I run via a Windows CLI on the server, it works fine, e.g:

magick "D:\1221701739_20190716134351965_1_0.jpg" -resize 640x480 "D:\1221701739_20190716134351965_1_TEST.jpg

But I keep getting NOTOPEN when I attempt this in IRIS.

I want to operate on the class in enslib, but I don't have write permission. How can I modify the permission with code, or which table is given write permission

ERROR:#5388 - You do not have write permission on the database class ,so class lock cannot be obtained .

Hey everyone,

The InterSystems Grand Prix Contest is over. It was an incredible competition with a record number of participating apps and developers! 

Thank you all for participating! And now it's time to announce the winners! 

A storm of applause goes to these developers and their applications:

Hey Developers,

Enjoy watching this brief explanation of a new feature in IRIS RAD Studio – a new project by @José Pereira and @Henrique.GonçalvesDias:

Transition and transfer from Caché to Iris databas. I have a question about import-export from Caché to Iris. Someone will tell you how to do this with a regular one, i.e. using standard procedures from Caché itself or Iris? I am asking in connection with the planned transition from Caché to the new IRIS DBMS.

Hey developers,

We want to hear from you! Give us your feedback on the InterSystems Grand Prix Contest! Please answer some questions to help us improve our contests.

Bulid REST API application built with ObjectScript in InterSystems IRIS. It also has OPEN API spec,  can be developed with Docker and VSCode, can be deployed as ZPM module. can be used as Overbooking System data REST api.

What's Hotel Overbooking Management System?

The overbooking management system combines the unique conditions of the hotel, such as room prices, order channels, customer needs (etc...). System uses machine learning algorithms (such as: KNN/ES-RNN...

I have a quick question regarding swizzled objects.

I have an original object, say Object a, I am working with.

I set a property a.something.somethingother.somethingelse.myNewProperty  to some value x.

Then at some point I am saving a and continuing to work with it.  I assume here by saving a, I saved myNewProperty as well. (as it should work)

At some point  I would like to make certain that I have correct value in my myNewProperty, so since I happen to know it's ID I 
open it directly:
Set ref=##class(somethingelse).%OpenId(Id)
but when I try to look at my ref.

I'm participating in the Developing with InterSystems Objects and SQL with Joel Solon. The course is very nice and I will share with you some tips I got during the training. Tips presented in the day 4:

1. All data are stored in Globals and Global names start with ^. Example of global: ^animal. Global can have multiples locations to the data ("sub data"). Example: ^animal(1).
2. ^%* globals are accessible from any system-wide (from any namespace).
3. Globals enables IRIS to support multimodel data (object, relational, document, multidimensional, etc).
4. To see globals go the Management Portal >

@José Pereira  and I created a good project, and we want to introduce a few words about this project to you.

What is IRIS RAD Studio?

IRIS RAD Studio is our idea of a low-code solution to show what's possible,  to make the developer's life easier. 

What do you think If I will say you, that very soon you will be able to connect to IRIS from the application written in Rust.

What is Rust

Rust is a multi-paradigm programming language designed for performance and safety, especially safe concurrency. Rust is syntactically similar to C++, but can guarantee memory safety by using a borrow checker to validate references. Rust achieves memory safety without garbage collection, and reference counting is optional. (c) Wikipedia

Most loved language for the last five years by the time of StackOverflow survey 2020.

What is possible right now.

It can

Migration from Caché to IRIS can be quite a challenge if your code is grown over many years
and probably not so clean structured as you may like it. So you face the need to check your
migrated code against some reference data. A few samples might not be a problem,
but some hundred GB of data for testing might be.  

A possible step could be to have your fresh code in IRIS but leave your huge datastore on Caché and connect both environments over ECP.  I have created a demo project that gives you the opportunity to try this based on 2 Docker images with IRIS and with Caché connected over ECP.

Hey Developers,

This week is a voting week for the InterSystems Grand Prix Contest! So, it's time to give your vote to the best solutions built with InterSystems IRIS.

🔥 You decide: VOTING IS HERE 🔥

How to vote and what's new?

I can't find a case of spark or Kafka connecting to InterSystems Iris on the Internet. Are there any related resources  can share?

Hi Developers!

Thank you for using ZPM Package Manager and contributing more and more useful packages to the public registry!

But as you already aware ZPM packages are always deployed with source code.

Do you think we need to add the option to deploy without source code - e.g. if you want to deploy a commercial package?

Will you develop commercial modules if there will be an option and deploy it with ZPM?

How do you deploy commercial applications today?

Hi all,

I'm trying to access via JDBC my community installation but the connection is always rejected. The same code (python code) using the stand-alone version of Intersystems IRIS works fine.

Is the community edition limited in this case? I can't see it in the official documentation: https://irisdocs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Pag…
