#InterSystems IRIS

Hi,How to specify column name (ddl)?

I cannot find those folders under my IRIS install dev folder.  Those were in my cache install dev folder.

Will InterSystems drop those support?  If yes, why are there some discussion about Python/Iris in this forum?

Of course, I wish IS continue to support those.

The pandemic that struck the world in 2020 made everyone follow the news and the numbers that involve the COVID-19.

Why don’t you take that opportunity to create something simple and pleasant, to follow the number of vaccinations worldwide?

To face this challenge, I'm using the data provided by Our World in Data - Research and data to make progress against the world’s largest problems.

They have a dedicated repository on Github with the data of COVID-19, and I took the vaccination data to help me with my tracker.

ZPM is a fantastic package management product. I have 7 apps published and these apps not using zpm because it need install external products using apt-get install.

Is it possible do apt-get install using ZPM?

I've submitted what I've called qewd-jsdb-kit-iris to the Multi-model competition - it's a suite of applications and tutorials that demonstrate how IRIS Global Storage is used to provide the unique Node.js-based "persistent JavaScript Objects" of QEWD-JSdb (what I refer to as the JavaScript equivalent of the ^ symbol that distinguishes Global data storage from in-memory data).  However, something that you can use alongside the tut

Hi All,

I'm starting to use VSCode for most of my day to day stuff and there's something that has me stumped. Is there a way to override a method or property that's inherited from a superclass?

Hi colleagues!

Every day Johns Hopkins University publishes new data on coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic status.

I built a simple InterSystems IRIS Analytics dashboard using InterSystems IRIS Community Edition in docker deployed on GCP Kubernetes which shows key measures of the disease outbreak.

This dashboard is an example of how information from CSV could be analyzed with IRIS Analytics and deployed to GCP Kubernetes in a form of InterSystems IRIS Community Edition.

I don't like the default terminal very much because it can't change the window size freely.

Hi,

I'm a novice. I don't know much about object script. Can he write an(Windows10) EXE file?

Hello, developers!

I would like to share the history of the project - the ZAPM shell.

As soon as ZPM was implemented, I immediately began to think about how best to use it.

And immediately faced with the desire to move more quickly between namespaces, especially when there are more than 20 of them. I had to leave the ZPM, move to the desired namespace and re-enter the shell. I suggested an improvement - a new "namespace" command for easier navigation. I didn’t wait - I did it myself. And so it went. If you need it, get ready to do it yourself.

But more and more my wishes for the development of

The ObjectScript language of InterSystems IRIS has a very powerful metadata engine called XData. This feature allows the creation of metadata definitions for your classes, to be used by the compiler or by programs that will extend the standard features of the language, based on the XData definitions of its scope.

An example is IRIS Publisher, an Open Source application from the community capable of collecting all XData definitions in HTML and / or Markdown format and generating a Web Portal with all the application documentation assembled from these XData elements.

 Hi, 

Is there a database gui tool?  like nactive?

Hi developers!

Often we need to deploy some data along with code pieces of the application.

And for InterSystems IRIS developers the question could sound: "How can I deploy the data I have in globals?"

Here I want to suggest to you one of the approaches - deploying global data using the ZPM package manager.

Hi developers!

Sometimes we need to test this or that library, framework, or function vs some dataset. And often we want to deal with some meaningful data.

Recently I added two very simple but meaningful datasets that could be installed with one line.

Titanic Dataset

Application

Contains 800+ records about passengers from the famous cruise liner. The dataset could be installed with:

zpm "install dataset-titanic"

This installs one class dc.data.Titanic with 800+ records.

Countries dataset

Application

The dataset contains data about 167 countries such as population, surface, capital, the average life expectancy. The dataset could be installed as:

zpm "install dataset-countries"

This installs one class dc.data.Countries and the global with data.

While the integrity of Caché and InterSystems IRIS databases is completely protected from the consequences of system failure, physical storage devices do fail in ways that corrupt the data they store.  For that reason, many sites choose to run regular database integrity checks, particularly in coordination with backups to validate that a given backup could be relied upon in a disaster.  Integrity check may also be acutely needed by the system administrator in response to a disaster involving storage corruption.  Integrity check must read every block of the globals being checked (if not already

In theprevious article, we looked at one way to create a custom operator that manages the IRIS instance state. This time, we’re going to take a look at a ready-to-go operator, InterSystems Kubernetes Operator (IKO).Official documentation will help us navigate the deployment steps.

Hi Community,

Sometimes it is necessary to execute commands from the shell of the host operating system, where your ObjectScript program is located, to launch programs, operating system services, schedule crontasks, among other activities. For this, the language has a utility procedure called $ZF(-100). See:

$ZF(-100,flags,program,args)

Where flags is the type of command you want to execute. In our case, the flag is "/ SHELL", to execute shell commands on the host operating system.

Program is the name of the program or service to be executed.

Args are execution arguments passed to the program.

Does anybody have such experience?

I need to do some nifty string manipulation on a source property. I will not be able to do it with the functions available(with the knowledge that I have of what is available). Could I call a ClassMethod to do this for me? This is what I want to do: The source property is "myemail@myemaildomain.co.uk". I need to add the text "test" to the beginning of that string. "testmyemail@myemaildomain.co.uk". That should be simple enough, but then I have to do this as well, "testmyemail@myemaildomaintest.co.uk". Note the additional "test" added after "myemaildomain".

For the benefit of those who want to use the Document Database (DocDB) capabilities within InterSystems IRIS, and specifically the REST API it provides, I put together a PostmanCollection that provides samples for several basic calls.

For example:
