#InterSystems IRIS

Hi all,

Some days ago, I've seen a youtuber talking about how to create a neural network (sorry, is in spanish)

In short, it uses the neural network to learn how to convert degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit.
Degrees Fahrenheit = (degrees Celsius × 9/5) +32
In this video, he uses Python to create the neural network, where he creates a table with the values ​​of degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit.

I have created some example Ansible modules that add functionality above and beyond simply using the Ansible builtin Command or Shell modules to manage IRIS. You can use these as an inspiration for creating your own modules. My hope is that this will be the start of creating an IRIS community Ansible collection.

• I am assuming you are already familiar with Ansible. For example see the community post: Ansible Community Post
• This post follows up on my 2024 Global Summit presentation.

Hi Team,

I want implement build/release pipeline for InterSystems IRIS rest API with VSTS without docker container or other tool.

Can you please provide step by step guide for same.

Thanks,

I installed this to 'try' to learn the Ensemble (Interoperability module). I selected the Developer install, which ran without issue. I have all of the tray options, and, they run without issue. However, when I try to simple 'create' a new BPL or DTL, I get the 5002 <PROTECT> error-

*
I have no idea if there was a problem with the install, or if there are more things I need to do, to get this application to work. Any suggestions would be welcome.

I'll preface this by saying I'm not sure if I found a bug or because I'm somehow misusing IrisVectorStore.
Basically I have code from the regular llama-index module working in my Python project which has SimpleDirectoryReader objects similar in nature to the demo I mentioned (https://github.com/intersystems-community/iris-vector-search/blob/main/…). And I have other code working that can add new users to a SQL table in Iris.

After performing Concurrent External Backup and restarting the instance, if I want to perform an incremental backup of Concurrent External Backup again.

Should I redo the following steps?

1. 
   

    Do CLRINC^DBACK("QUIET")

2. 
   

    Set x=$$BACKUP^DBACK("","E","Dirty external backup - incrementals must be applied.","","","")

3. 
   

   Set x=$$BACKUP^DBACK("","I","Nightly","test.bck","N","bck.log","QUIET","N","Y")

I am a first time Python Contest participant and am interested in potentially implementing the community idea found in https://ideas.intersystems.com/ideas/DPI-I-542 if it is something relevant to Python.
Would anyone be able to shed a bit of light on what the desired outcome of that idea being implemented is? There were a lot of upvotes on that idea but there wasn't very much information in it. Thanks!

The invention and popularization of Large Language Models (such as OpenAI's GPT-4) has launched a wave of innovative solutions that can leverage large volumes of unstructured data that was impractical or even impossible to process manually until recently. Such applications may include data retrieval (see Don Woodlock's ML301 course for a great intro to Retrieval Augmented Generation), sentiment analysis, and even fully-autonomous AI agents, just to name a few!

I found myself in the not-so-comfortable situation of working with a Linux system on which someone had accidentally disabled user access to the Linux shell. HealthConnect was running, servicing hundreds of interfaces. To resolve the access issue, though, we needed to bring the host down for the application of a fix.

Without the shell, the iris command is not available to control the instance, so we were faced with the potential of shutting down the server ungracefully. We wanted to avoid that if possible .

If you're not a user but want to learn more about Deltanji, we'd love to give you a demo.

We have installed IRIS on a separate server that we access remotely and copied all code and data to it so we can test IRIS before we do the move. We develop directly on the server. We Use VsCode to code but sometimes we might need to go to cache studio for some tasks.

We were interested in git for Shared Development Environments, we have installed it on a server with IRIS 2021 and configured it by following the instructions and videos of InterSystems summits we found online. We initialised a local repository on the server, added some files to start testing branches.

InterSystems FAQ rubric

Use the ErrorList query of the SYS.ApplicationError class.

• Note 1: Runs in the %SYS namespace.
• Note 2: This is a non-stored utility, so we use the %ResultSet class rather than %SQL.Statement.

An example of command execution is as follows.

USER>set $namespace="%SYS"   //equal to zn "%SYS"

%SYS>set rset=##class(%ResultSet).%New()

%SYS>set rset.ClassName="SYS.ApplicationError"

%SYS>set rset.QueryName="ErrorList"

// The first argument of the query is the namespace name, the second argument is the date (in MM/DD/YYYY format).
%SYS>do rset.

Hi all, I am trying to use Polybase in SQL Server 2019 to access an external Cache/IRIS Database. I have followed the initial steps of enabling Polybase, creating a Database, DB scoped credential and then an External Data Source. These steps have not caused any issues and appear to be successful, I am using the same DSN we use for a Linked Server connection that works normally. I am running into an Error when trying to Create an External Table. The error is a generic Native Code 469 "Driver Not Capable".

Hey Developers,

Watch this video to discover an analytical approach to InterSystems IRIS encryption and how it interacts with storage compression and deduplication compared with storage-level encryption:

How to see the code of the routine objects in the database. While importing the routine in the xml format the object code is in Database64 format but not able to see the actual code. How to decompile or how to see the code of the routines. 

Hello,

I have over 30 years of experience developing solutions with MUMPS and IRIS. Additionally, I also develop in C++, Python, Angular... 
Experiences with Container (Docker) , GIT and REST-API's

 I'm seated in Germany and looking for a job opportunity as a freelancer who mostly works from home office.

When registering the components: I used this command:
"Utils.migrate("/external/src/CoreModel/Python/settings.py)" ;
The error appears: "An error has occurred: iris.cls: error finding class",
I changed with these two lines:
result = subprocess.run(["iop", "-m", "/external/src/CoreModel/Python/settings.py"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, check=True)
subprocess.run(["iop", "-m", "/external/src/CoreModel/Python/settings.py"], stdout=subprocess.DEVNULL, stderr=subprocess.

Hello, Is there an equivelant to HS.FHIRServer.Tools.DataLoader.SubmitResourceFiles for bulk fhir data (.ndjson) that exists to import from a local directory in I4H ?
 

Hey,

I'm testing a REST API that is used for our IRIS Backend with a mobile app (Angular / ionic). 

The problem is that, our test environment does not yet have HTTPS capabilities, it's something we're going to set up ASAP, but right now we don't have it set up. 

We want to test the API endpoints via a web browser using either a test application built in Angular, or the app itself built with NPM via the browser. This means that the set-cookie headers are being blocked by the browser. 

Is there a way that we can allow the set-cookie header to be set in the browser for testing?

Hello Community,

I've seen two cached queries are generated while executing a query. So, Why the additional query is generated and what is the use of it. 

Hello community,

I'd like to briefly announce three new packages, available on the Open Exchange / through ZPM, that can really help accelerate modern full-stack application development on IRIS. I announced all of these in a Global Summit session last week, but you may have missed it - and I hear there's a full-stack application development contest coming up!

At the heart of this is isc.rest: a continuation of apps-rest with broader use within InterSystems and some new killer features - most notably, OpenAPI spec generation. isc.

Hello community, first of all, apologies if anyone was offended by the blasphemy 😔

Have you ever thought it would be interesting to have the source code separated from the database data? Perhaps you'd like to be able to back up your code without copying gigabytes of client data.

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to start an instance of the Community Edition with Docker and I get the following error.

I tried downloading the object-script template directly from OpenExchange, but one of these two things always happens:

1 - It gets stuck starting up forever

Could any one tell me, how the index  works in cache db, Consider for example, I have a table called "Employee" and the fields as "EMPID, EMPNAME, EMPAGE" and I am having index for EMPID as IDX_EMPID and trying to get the record using the following query as

SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEE WHERE EMPID="005"

and the table data be like

EMPID EMPNAME EMPAGE

001       ABC            20

002       AAA            21

003       ABB            23

004       BBB           20

005       BDF           24

006        EEE          22

Will SQL Engine directly hit the "005" record using ^EMPLOYEEI global, if so how it is happening, are they using B-Tree structure?

I have been using embedded python for more than 2 years now on a daily basis. May be it's time to share some feedback about this journey.

Why write this feedback? Because, I guess, I'm like most of the people here, an ObjectScript developer, and I think that the community would benefit from this feedback and could better understand the pros & cons of chosing embedded python for developing stuff in IRIS. And also avoid some pitfalls.

Has anyone had experience migrating source control projects from Subversion to Github, particularly when transitioning from InterSystems Studio to VSCode?

We have a requirement where in certain data from IRIS in almost real time has to join with SQL tables and we are trying to avoid linked servers.

Is there a way to achieve this without having to go through ODBC? 

Hi

I get the following error when I am trying to create a linked server connection via MS OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers in MS SQL Server Management Studio. The message I get is:

The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "IRIS" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "IRIS". (Framework Microsoft SqlClient Data Provider)

I have setup the InterSystems ODBC setting on the server.
