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 Stefan Cronje · Oct 20, 2018

Hi,

We have a few projects and some of these projects share code "libraries". Some of which are persistent classes that are used by multiple systems. All these are currently deployed on Ensemble. We want to move some of the smaller ones to the cloud and make use of IRIS.

The challenge is that once we synchronise the code to IRIS from Atelier, then IRIS changes the storage definitions, which then creates changes to the files.We do not want to commit all these changes to git as it will happen again once someone synchronises with Ensemble.

This code snippet uses %ZEN.Auxiliary.jsonSQLProvider. The namespace and string of SQL can be edited for different situations. The class method "test" runs the code:


Class eduardlebedyuk.passQuestionParams
{
	classmethod test(pValue = 50) {
		s ns = $Namespace
	    zn "samples"
	    s tSQL = "SELECT ID, Name FROM Sample.Person WHERE Id > ?"
	    s tPR = ##class(%ZEN.Auxiliary.jsonSQLProvider).%New()
	    s tPR.sql = tSQL
	    s tPR.%Format = "tw"
	    s tPR.maxRows = 100
    s tParam = ##class(%ZEN.Auxiliary.parameter).%New()
    s tParam.value = pValue
    d tPR.parameters.SetAt(tParam,1)
  
    d tPR.%DrawJSON() 
    //d ##class(%ZEN.Auxiliary.jsonSQLProvider).%WriteJSONFromSQL(,,,,,tPR)  //same thing
    zn ns
}

}

Hello everyone,

I'm new to Iris, trying to follow this guide ( https://community.intersystems.com/post/k-means-clustering-iris-dataset ) about using clustering. I've followed all instructions until showing the data. At that point, `dataFrame.show()` fails with `java.sql.SQLException: Access Denied`.

The following class method "test" contains code that can create a new class, create new properties for classes, or create new methods for classes. "test" runs all three of these processes once, and the code that performs each action is labelled by comments in the method:


ClassMethod test() As %Status
{
	set sc = $$$OK
// Create a class
set class = ##class(%ClassDefinition).%New("MyClass")
set class.Description = "This is my test class"_$c(13,10)_"testing %ClassDefinition"
set class.Super = "%Persistent"

// Create a property and add it
set property = ##class(%PropertyDefinition).%New("MyClass.MyProperty")
set property.Type = "%String"
set property.Description="This is a property"
set sc1 = class.Properties.Insert(property)
do:$$$ISERR(sc1) $system.Status.DisplayError(sc1)
set sc = $$$ADDSC(sc, sc1)

// Create a method and add it
set method = ##class(%MethodDefinition).%New("MyClass.MyMethod")
set method.ReturnType = "%Integer"
set method.FormalSpec = "x:%Integer,y:%Integer=10"
set method.Description = "Return product of x and y"
set method.CodeMode = "code"
set method.Code = " new result"_$c(13,10)_" set result=x*y"_$c(13,10)_" quit result"
set sc2 = class.Methods.Insert(method)
do:$$$ISERR(sc2) $system.Status.DisplayError(sc2)
set sc = $$$ADDSC(sc, sc2)

// Save the class definition
set sc3 = class.%Save()
do:$$$ISERR(sc3) $system.Status.DisplayError(sc3)
set sc = $$$ADDSC(sc, sc3)

The following code snippet includes a class method "test" that runs code to find a class based on the class's name. "test" takes one argument, which is the name of the table:


Class objectscript.findTable Extends %RegisteredObject
{
	classmethod test(name as %String="mytable")  
    {
			#Dim result as %ResultSet
			#Dim tName as %String
			#Dim contain as %Integer
		Set contain=0
		Set result = ##class(%ResultSet).%New("%Dictionary.ClassDefinition:Summary")
		Do result.Execute()

		While(result.Next()) 
		{
			Set tName=$get(result.Data("Name"))
			&sql(select position (:name in :tName) into :contain)
			Write:contain'=0 tName, " ... ", name, " (", contain,")", !
		}
	    Return $$$OK
 }

This code snippet determines the day of the week associated with a date. The class method "test" takes a date as a string in "mm/dd/yyyy" format, and returns an integer corresponding to a day of the week:


Class cartertiernan.getDayfromDate Extends %RegisteredObject
{
	classmethod test(date) as %Integer {
		//Set date = $ZDATE(date) //  Looks like: mm/dd/yyyy
    Set monthList = $LISTBUILD(0,3,3,6,1,4,6,2,5,0,3,5) // (Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,...)
    Set centuryList = $LISTBUILD(6,4,2,0) // first two digits divisiable by 4, then subsequent centuries. EX (2000, 2100, 2200, 2300)
    Set dayList = $LISTBUILD("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday") // Index goes from 0-6
     
    Set day = $PIECE(date,"/",2) // get the day 
    Set monthVal = $LIST(monthList,($PIECE( date,"/",1 ))) // get the month value
    Set first2DigsYear = $PIECE( date,"/",3 ) \ 100 // get the last 2 digits of the year

Question Galena Teneva · Jul 5, 2018

Hi,
it is possible to convert a csv file to json file?

I want to stream json files and output the data as it comes in from the files. So my files are "csv" type and I want to convert these files to "json" type.


I can read csv file as follows:

ClassMethod ReadFile()
{
    set stream = ##class(%Stream.FileCharacter).%New()
    set sc = stream.LinkToFile("*.csv")
    do stream.Rewind()
    while'stream.AtEnd {
        set line=stream.ReadLine()
        write line,!
}
What should I add to convert it to "json" and read it again?

Thank you

In the next ten years the applications will radically change, see my vision about it:

Today, the web apps are developed using modern HTML 5/CSS/Javascript frameworks like React, Angular, Bootstrap, etc. These web apps are focused on responsive views from the laptop to tablets and mobile screens.

In the early future, new forms to interacting with the user come true, especially cognitive conversations based on voice, bots and augmented reality and IoT/Wearable conversations deployed on smart watches, clothing, shoes, glasses, portable healthcare devices and home smarts things like Amazon Alexa,

Companies today face serious problems in managing their data and delivering strategic value to them. The structure and business logic of data is fragmented into different solutions, architectures and technology platforms. In addition, different project teams, one for each solution, impose their views on the business, limiting the business to which each of these solutions are able to do. The database becomes a simple repository of processed data under the partial view delivered by each application, process, analysis, message and integration.
