InterSystems Queryable Statement Metadata

Dynamic SQL allows the user to dynamic create, populate and query tables, call procedures and functions, and so on - all without writing any ObjectScript. Of course, this capability is completely normal for xDBC clients. InterSystems Dynamic SQL has been available in Caché for several years and is available in all versions of InterSystems IRIS. What I am about to describe should work for all versions of InterSystems IRIS and for all versions of InterSystems CE that support SQL Table-Valued functions.

Hi Developers!

Want to raise security discussion today!

Let's discuss how InterSystems security for applications works. In general, the concept is clear: we have Resources (what to protect), Roles which combine a set of privileges and accesses to Resources and Users which can have this or that Role.

But there is also a concept of Application which also could have a Role.

So you either provide a Role for a User or for an Application.

What do you use in production? What is your strategy and why? Pros, cons?

Hi community!

Is it possible generate HTML documentation to my project ObjectScript classes (.cls)?

In Java we use Javadoc to do it. Javadoc get class comments and java metadata information and when I execute javadoc -d doc src\*, I get whole html documentation to my classes. Has IRIS something like javadoc? Is it documatic? If yes, how can I use it?

Hello there, 

I am Zainab a Medical Practitioner for a leading hospital in India. 

But i am about to start my new clinic and gradually build it to a hospital as well. 

I already have a very strong patient Data Base but I am afraid that day by day as it is increasing i will need a better one to handle things. 

I have a considerable amount of knowledge in IT as well. that is when I came across this thing called IRIS. 

I also saw we can use it for free. 

I need more details please on this. 

I also see many versions of IRIS. Please clarify that for me as well please. 

Hope someone can help me please.

Hi,

I'm trying to access the categories configuration for the WorkMgr via COS, so I can be able to create new categories for our processes and this way try to overlock the limit of cores*2 workers. I've seen that last version of IRIS is supposed to have a menu on the portal (System Administration > Configuration > System Configuration > WQM Categories), but since we are in 2020.1 this doesn't exist. 

Does anyone have experience with WQM.API to manage the categories, or the usage of ^%SYS("WQM") to set it directly?

Hi Developers,

Hey Developers,

The InterSystems Interoperability Contest is over. Thank you all for participating in our exciting coding marathon!

And now it's time to announce the winners! 

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

Report about what happened during a test - check Message Bank to see what happened on the instances that received test messages from Feeder
 

I developed Feeder on an IRIS instance while working in development VPC and I configured a Message Bank in a different namespace on the same IRIS instance. I added Feeder.csp and submitted Feeder app to Full Stack contest. I currently refactor the Feeder and Message Bank apps for Interoperability contest and to deploy in another VPC.

Below I show a sample report from development VPC:

NAMESPACE>DO ##class(UnitTest.TestReport).

⏯ Creating InterSystems IRIS Analytics Solutions Using Docker & VSCode

Greetings!

The application I work with has a need to update a user's google password using a service account and no user intervention other than clicking a link.  
I'm in the process of figuring out how to do that from an IRIS server.
I've set up an OAuth 2.0 client with one client configuration, attempting to follow the documentation in https://community.intersystems.com/post/intersystems-iris-open-authoriz… as much as possible.  
I also set up an SSL configuration to be used with Google.

According IDC, 80% of all data produced are NoSQL. See:

There are digital documents, scanned documents, online and offline texts, blob content into SQL, images, videos and audio. Imagine a Corporate Analytics initiative without all these data to analyze and support decisions?

In all the world, many projects are using techonologies to transform these NoSQL data into textual content, to allows analyze it.

Hi developers!

We introduced a set of bonuses to all the participants of the Interoperability Stack Contest. 

And here is the table of current bonuses accomplishments:

Keywords: Python, JDBC, SQL, IRIS, Jupyter Notebook, Pandas, Numpy, and Machine Learning 

1. Purpose

This is another 5-minute simple note on invoking the IRIS JDBC driver via Python 3 within i.e. a Jupyter Notebook, to read from and write data  into an IRIS database instance via SQL syntax, for demo purpose. 

Last year I touched on a brief note on Python binding into a Cache database (section 4.7) instance.

Hi Community!

How can I enable IRIS Text Analytics (formerly known as iKnow) in a given Namespace programmatically?

How can you allow computers to trust one another in your absence while maintaining security and privacy?

“A Dry Martini”, he said. “One. In a deep champagne goblet.”
“Oui, monsieur.”
“Just a moment. Three measures of Gordons, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it’s ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon peel. Got it?”
"Certainly, monsieur." The barman seemed pleased with the idea.

OAuth helps to separate services with user credentials from “working” databases, both physically and geographically. It thereby strengthens the protection of identification data and, if necessary, helps you comply with the requirements of countries' data protection laws.

With OAuth, you can provide the user with the ability to work safely from multiple devices at once, while "exposing" personal data to various services and applications as little as possible. You can also avoid taking on "excess" data about users of your services (i.e. you can process data in a depersonalized form).

Hooray! 

I'm pleased to announce that 100 ZPM modules are available in the public InterSystems IRIS zpm-repository! Now!

Thank you, developers! This is great that you adopt ZPM Package manager that fast and share your open source add-on libraries for InterSystems IRIS in a form of ZPM packages which means that each of them could be installed as:

USER>zpm "install module-name"

Wish to see the next milestone of 1,000 modules soon in 2021!

Thank you!

Hi,

I'm attempting to set up an Apache Rewrite Rule so that a url picks up a different csp page.

For example I want Apache http://hostname/csp/test/foo.csp to redirect to http://hostname/csp/test/bar.csp

Here is my example of Cache80.conf

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost _default_:80>
    ServerName test.domain.com
    DocumentRoot "/intersystems/irissys/csp"
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.

Hi Community,

⏯ OCR Service for InterSystems IRIS

Hello developers!

I submitted for the contest a solution that would allow organizing message notifications and providing information to users of the messenger Telegam. This is achieved by creating two bots: an administrator and an informant. The administrator manages the list of users connected to the bot informator and their access rights.

The Solution based on project https://github.

Update: added support for regression model Hi everyone!

In this brief article, I'll show you how to write an adapter for IRIS Interoperability for use ML models managed by IRIS IntegratedML.

The adapter

The adapter just uses IntegratedML SQL functions PREDICT and PROBABILITY, to get the predicted class from model and its probability. It's just a simple SQL:
![code1][code1] [code1]: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jrpereirajr/interoperability-integratedml-adapter/master/img/how-it-works-1.png
Notice that the model name is referenced by Model property.

My team is working on redesigning an Interoperability solution that currently runs on a HealthShare server that is part of a mirror. Most of the messages are delimited records processed using Complex Record Mapping. We were told to utilize cloud services available in AWS, use containers, autoscaling…

Once we figured out how to use Docker, we imported the Health Connect code in multiple containers with a shared Elastic File System with the directory structure we copied from the existing server.

Hi Community,

See how IntegratedML can leverage DataRobot — a best-in-class, third-party machine learning platform — to make predictions on a set of data:

Hi community? Do you have tips for IRIS certification? Resources to study, types of questions more common, anything to help me in my study path. Thanks.

The productions are components developed with InterSystems IRIS Interoperability module to promote integrations between systems, data sources/targets, web services, API, message channels, etc. Productions are composed by:

1) Business services to get/ingest/get data events or requests;

2) Business operations to send or persist data to repositories, systems, API, web services, etc; and

3) BPL - BPEL flows to orchestrate, mediate, compose and route data from business services to business operations.

I have already asked a question about migrating an Oracle database to Caché, and I was promptly answered. Now, I have one more question, however it is more conceptual. In general, any tool defends its benefits, and looking at Caché's, among many, there is a lot of talk about speed. The question is, if I already have a database, and at the moment, its performance is not a problem, I would like to know what else could influence the change of this database? Remembering that it is functional and without any apparent problem.

Hi,

InterSystems IRIS has long supported the obvious translation functions required to for converting to upper or lowercase to enforce case-insensitive string comparison (e.g. in ObjectScript with $zconvert) and sorting (e.g. with SQL collation functions, not to be confused with NLS collation). Customers in international contexts have at times used custom workarounds to also treat accent insensitivity or even more advanced normalization duct tape. We’re looking to address such use cases at the system and SQL level to increase convenience for this international audience, which is well represented on the Developer Community.

Hi Community,

See how IntegratedML in InterSystems IRIS can be used to make machine learning predictions directly from SQL commands:

⏯ IntegratedML in a Nutshell

Let's imagine you have to implement a method with a definition

/// Set value to %session.Data
ClassMethod setValue(params...) As %Status
{
}

How it should work

do ..setValue("key1", "val")

is equal to

set %session.Data("key1") = "val"

and 

do ..setValue("key1", "key2", "key3", "key4", "val")

is equal to 

set %session.Data("key1", "key2", "key3", "key4") = "val"

so, quite simple, any amount of arguments, while the latest one is a value, and any previous is an index, should accept at least 2 arguments.

How would you implement this method?

I have created $zf  commands to encrypt/decrypt a file using GNUpg which is working fine in Terminal but not populating output file when I call this from BPL process. Any help would be appreciated!!
