InterSystems IRIS is a Complete Data Platform
InterSystems IRIS gives you everything you need to capture, share, understand, and act upon your organization’s most valuable asset – your data.
As a complete platform, InterSystems IRIS eliminates the need to integrate multiple development technologies. Applications require less code, fewer system resources, and less maintenance.

Question Klaus Richarz · Jun 22, 2020

Hi!

we are evaluating IRIS Data Platform as an OAuth2 Authorization Server with the use of the official Docker image. We currently struggle with the OAuth2 setup, as we are required to use https:// for the /oauth2/authorize and /oauth2/token endpoints, but the Docker container exposes only http:// in its default configuration. We have tried to find any hints in the docs but were not successful. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Klaus & Lukas

Question Joao Palma · Jun 19, 2020

Hi all

Does anyone have an easy way of reading the cdata in the xml response returned buy a Webservice?

At the moment I have a XML class and then I use read.Correlate() to read through that XML bit.  

However, depending on the message I have different things in the CData and I don't want to create a class for each one of these.

The API returns the cddata as  KeyValueOfstringstring.

My idea would be to send to my method the cdata as a parameter which is the KeyValueOfstringstring part of the response message and then deal with it...

Any help would be appreciated...

Best Regards

The Intersystems IRIS is a great platform to develop, run and consume Data Science services. IRIS can ingest data from any type, format, protocol and time using adapters. These datasets can be prepared with BPL, DTL and Object Script and stored as SQL or NoSQL data. Finally, it can be consumed by open ML algorithms inside IRIS and visualized in the IRIS dashboards. See more in:   https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/Doc.View.cls?KEY=PAGE_data_science.

Question Craig Regester · Jun 17, 2020

Good day all -

I am attempting to use the Data Transformation Builder (for ease of use for my other engineers) to build up a web service request object to send to an outbound operation. The source is a custom persistent class (extends Ens.Response, %JSON.Adaptor) and has serialized sub-class data elements and the request object is a custom persistent class (extends Ens.Request, %JSON.Adaptor.)

When attempting to use a for each on one of the serialized properties of the source object, the for each works (source.

In an earlier article (hope, you’ve read it), we took a look at the CircleCI deployment system, which integrates perfectly with GitHub. Why then would we want to look any further? Well, GitHub has its own CI/CD platform called GitHub Actions, which is worth exploring. With GitHub Actions, you don’t need to rely on some external, albeit cool, service.

In this article we’re going to try using GitHub Actions to deploy the server part of  InterSystems Package Manager, ZPM-registry, on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE).

Hello Community,

I hope you are well.
I encounter a problem on IRIS for Unix 2020.1  when I try to create a PDF from a simple Dashboard on Deepsee : 

When I click on this widget , a tab appear and is loading for ~30 seconds, then shows 'error loading the PDF File ' :

 

 

I am also using DeepSee Web, and i encounter a problem if I try to Export the graph as a PDF : 

 

Is there a link between both problem ? ( If I fix the print widget, the PDF Export will also be fixed ? ) 

I found someone having the same problem but she fixed it : https://community.intersystems.

Often we need to debug a Business Operation. Tracing and logging work but sometimes you want to work with a BO as with your local terminal session.

Here's how you can do that on any operating system.

Windows has a great tool for debugging Business Operations - Foreground mode. In that mode Windows launches a local terminal with operation job.

Note that there's  an issue with some InterSystems IRIS versions (older than 2021.1) which caused cterm launch instead of iristerm.

In 2017, Forbes published an article talking about API Economy (see: https://www.forbes.com/sites/louiscolumbus/2017/01/29/2017-is-quickly-becoming-the-year-of-the-api-economy/). This article was the trigger to popularize the use of API and API Management by large companies. The article published a maturity model. My understanding is that Intersystems IRIS allows you to reach the top of the pyramid with your current technologies. See the figure above.
For this it is important to combine % CSP.

Question Dmitry Maslennikov · Jun 8, 2020

Since IRIS 2020.1, changed the way how embedded SQL compiled. Now it compiles upon the first execution of such queries.

Is there any way, I could switch that feature back to the previous behavior, or get some more control over it?

We deliver our software as deployed, and we would like to have it well prepared. Another solution would suit us, if we could change the generated classname of the cached query to something which we would be possible to map. At the moment it generates classes %sqlcq.NAMESPACE, but our customers may use different namespaces.

Hi guys,

I'm trying to consume a REST Service that use Digest authentication, I'm trying to implement the authentication but I'm don't know where is my mistake.

Someone have already used this type of authentication.

Below the code I wrote to try to generate the response hash:

 // Algorithm reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication
 //
 // Test data:
 // Do TestDigest^HC.Debug("posstman", "password", "/digest-auth", "postman-echo.com", 80)
 // Do TestDigest^HC.Debug("usr", "pwd", "/digest-auth/auth/usuario/senha/MD5", "httpbin.

Question Henrique Dias · Jun 10, 2020

Hi Community, 

Is it possible to track Application Errors from a specific namespace? 

With the new API, I know we have the endpoint /alerts. 

But the endpoint /alerts, as described in the documentation: 

The /alerts endpoint fetches the most recent alerts from the alerts.log file and returns them in JSON format.

I want to create push notifications for Application errors in specifics Namespaces, and I don't know how to extract that information from there.

System  > System Logs  > View Application Error Log
Thanks,
Henrique

Some InterSystems Java libraries are not available in public maven repositories, like intersystems-jdbc-3.1.0.jar. In this case, to configure your Java Maven dependency, copy the external file to your project (for a folder visible to the classpath, like resources) and use <systemPath>. Follow the sample:

<dependency>
            <groupId>com.intersystems</groupId>
            <artifactId>intersystems-jdbc</artifactId>
            <version>3.1.0</version>

Keywords:  PyODBC, unixODBC, IRIS, IntegratedML, Jupyter Notebook, Python 3

 

Purpose

A few months ago I touched on a brief note on "Python JDBC connection into IRIS", and since then I referred to it more frequently than my own scratchpad hidden deep in my PC. Hence, here comes up another 5-minute note on how to make "Python ODBC connection into IRIS".

ODBC and PyODBC seem pretty easy to set up in a Windows client, yet every time I stumbled a bit somewhere on setting up an unixODBC and PyODBC client in a Linux/Unix-style server.

Hi Devs!

Last weekend I had been testing the newborn csvgen module and was looking for a CSV file to test - thus I came across an interesting datafile on Data.World  with Game of Throne episodes statistics. Death statistics. These folks documented all the murders through all the 8 seasons and noted where, who, from what clan with what weapon had killed another one.

So I imported it and made an IRIS Analytics dashboard.

You Know Nothing, Jon Snow | You Know Nothing, Jon Snow | Know ...

Don't worry, Jon,  with this dashboard we can figure out something ). See the details below.

Many times it is necessary copy or send files to your docker container instance.

In my case was with IRIS JDBC driver.

Docker has this recipe for this (credits to https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cp/):

docker cp [OPTIONS] CONTAINER:SRC_PATH DEST_PATH|-
docker cp [OPTIONS] SRC_PATH|- CONTAINER:DEST_PATH

But to copy you need your container name. Write this command for this:

docker ps

In my, my-iris is the container name.

If you need to know file location into your docker file system too, write:

1. To go to bash of your docker instance: docker exec -it my-iris /bin/bash.
2. Write cd .
