If you need to migrate your server for some reason, you can reduce the setup work by copying configuration information from the pre-migration environment to the post-migration environment.

The following setting information can be migrated.

• iris.cpf
• SQL gateway settings
• web gateway settings *Note 1
• user-created routines etc. stored in the IRISSYS database *Note 2
• security settings
• task settings

In this article,  I walk through the %JSON.Adaptor class. This class is extremely useful in exporting data into serialized JSON and importing the JSON objects and saves into class object.

I'll start with the %JSON. Adaptor parameters. The parameters are crucial part of the JSON import and export operations.

Hi,

I've created an Object Gateway via the System Management Portal, and installed the following Java classes to allow connectivity between the IRIS server and RabbitMQ ...

RabbitMQ.jar

amqp-client-5.18.0.jar

slf4j-api-1.7.36.jar

slf4j-simple-1.7.36.jar

I've used the Java Gateway wizard via Studio and compiled the java classes that this would refer to, and a quick test worked on Day 1.  However, on Day 2, on trying to connect, I got this error :

<ZJGTW>%ProcessErrorNew+11^%Net.Remote.Proxy.1

However, if I go back into the Java Gateway wizard in Studio, and 're-create' the classes

In VSCode using the InterSystems extensions, I now have an almost working environment where routines can be created or modified on disk and these are pushed to the developer's IRIS instance.

One issue I'm finding whilst testing is that if I rename or delete a routine from disk, the change isn't pushed to IRIS and I can't work out how to make this happen.

I am trying to pull out something similar to an HL7 date/time stamp in a custom zen page , in a javascript code section.

var d = new Date();

(Fri Jan 12 2024 16:58:30 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time)

but,
var year = d.getFullYear();

<Error>

d.<formatcmd>  doesn't seem to work.  (d.getmonth, etc.)

Is there and date formatting I can use inside a javascript routine?

The company I work for have a repository for one of our products which already contains both InterSystems and non-InterSystems source code. I'm in the process of trying to migrate us over to using VSCode to edit the InterSystems source but am stuck on some issues surrounding the files on disk and the routines in the IRIS instance.

Hi,

I have this IRIS server, NODE1. NODE1 is a Linux server running IRIS.

To connect to IRIS on this server I:

From my PC ssh (via putty) to NODE1

From the putty session, I, "iris session <iris instance>"

I was hoping to use iristerm on my PC:

I put NODE1 into IRIS Server Manager

From my PC, I, "iristerm /server=NODE1"

I get this error message:

"TCP connect() failed"
How to get this to work?

When using VS Code to develop with Object Script, the Server Credentials prompt for connecting to the IRIS instance is happy accept a blank for UnknownUser. See screen shot:

From here VS Code happily connects to the IRIS instance using unauthenticated access. But the standard VS Code "Go To Definition" appears to do nothing. Whilst looking through the documentation I found that in the Language Server extension, there is a setting to output verbose trace details. With verbose output switched on, trying the "go to definition" of some code, the output shows this:

Do you know where I can find it?

⏯ Working with InterSystems IRIS Cloud SQL

Hello, community!

Ihave been tinkering around with Flutter lately and, as a result, came up with some apps that can use Firebase as a database. When I realized there was an available Python library, I felt the urge to create something for InterSystems IRIS that would communicate with the Firebase RealTime Database and perform CRUD operations. Later, I stumbled upon the following idea from Evgeny in the portal:

https://ideas.intersystems.com/ideas/DP-I-146 

That is when  I got down to work!

Are you curious to see my findings? Then buckle up because we’re about to take off!

Many organisations implement centralised log management systems to separate and centralise the log data in order to e.g. automate threat detection (and response) and to comply with regulatory requirements. The primary systems of interest are the various user facing applications, but increasingly also other kinds of systems including integration platforms.What comes to the data platform (not the user facing application) most of the the events of interest/required are available as predefined system audit events in audit log - out of the box. They just need to be enabled.

InterSystems has decided to stop further development of the InterSystems IRIS Natural Language Processing, formerly known as iKnow, technology and label it as deprecated as of the 2023.3 release of InterSystems IRIS. InterSystems will continue to support existing customers using the technology, but does not recommend starting new development projects outside of the core text exploration use cases it was originally designed for.

Hello everyone,

I am new to Deepsee (BI intelligence) concepts in IRIS. I am looking for a solution of below question

Question: We have a server where we are currently storing archive PDF reports of our application.

We want to add and view these archive reports (PDF format only) in dashboards. Is there any way we can do this? Or any article which can help us performing this task.

Thanks in advance!!

Hi,

Our application needs to create system users from a request form.

To use Security classes, it is necessary to have rights to use the %SYS namespace, which is not the case for users who validate requests.

It is not desirable for these users to have this role permanently, so I proceeded as follows:

I created a facade class for the Security.Users, Security.Roles, Security.Resources classes which allows me to log in with an authorized user on the NS %SYS

Here is an example method:

ClassMethod Modify(name As%String, ByRef properties As%String) As%Status
{
    set who = $USERNAMEdoHi,Our application needs to create system users from a request form.To use Security classes, it is necessary to have rights to use the %SYS namespace, which is not the case for users who validate requests.It is not desirable for these users to have this role permanently, so I proceeded as follows:I created a facade class for the Security.Users, Security.Roles, Security.Resources classes which allows me to log in with an authorized user on the NS %SYSHere is an example method:ClassMethod Modify(name As %String, ByRef properties As %String) As %Status

ZPM is a package manager designed for convenient deployment of applications and modules on the IRIS platform.

Module developers, in order for their module to be installed using ZPM, need to follow a series of simple steps.

• Write module code
• Create a module.xml file that contains the meta description of the module
• Using the test registry, publish the module, verify that it is published
• Install the module from the test registry

Hi,

I am after an IRIS instance in the cloud or otherwise which will allow me to learn ObjectScript.

I can find ObjectScript learning tutorial and videos.

If so please advise the sandbox url.

If not please suggest something similar.

Tanks

I need to verify that certain .m files have been compiled and inserted into the VA mumps database.  I need to do it on a schedule and thus I want to automate it.  Because of the automation I'd prefer not to use the IRIS web app. So if there were a similar CLI version that would be great. I see there is something called /usr/bin/iris but this seems to be a maintenance tool, not a IRIS.DAT querying tool.  I'd love to be wrong about that.

Please forgive my lack of proper nomenclature, clearly I'm a n00b.

I am trying to write a ZMIRROR routine that makes a shell script call using $ZF

Set cmd = "/usr/local/sbin/failover-intengtest-vip"Do$ZF(-100,"/ASYNC /SHELL",cmd)

The script I am calling is returning an output to the screen, how do I get around this using $ZF without having to rewrite the scripts?

Thanks

Scott

This error occurs when an instance of the class is already open at compile time.

There are two ways to deal with this issue:

1. Terminate the process or application that has the instance open
2. Compile options in the studio build menu: Check the compile flag “Compile classes in use” and compile.  

If you want to determine which process is using the class, try the sample routine below.

Hello

We are in the process of upgrading to 2023.1 for InterSystems Health Connect, and the Business Rule Engine editor is very difficult to use compared to 2022.1. It's difficult to scan over the rules as it all looks the same style with barely any distinction between rules, constraints, conditions, whens etc. There's also tonnes of whitespace, and searching on the page is hit and miss (using Ctrl + F) . I can see the previous editor is still available when you modify the URL, but I'm wondering if we can set it to be the default editor, and if this is something supported.

Thanks

Lewis

  Hi, Community!

Since this article is an overview of Flask Login, let's begin with Flask Introduction!

What is Flask?

In the realm of web development, Python has emerged as a formidable force, offering its versatility and robustness to create dynamic and scalable applications. For that reason, tools and services compatible with this language are in demand these days. Flask is a lightweight and easy-to-use web framework for Python. It stands out as a lightweight and user-friendly option. Its simplicity and flexibility have made it a popular choice for developers, particularly for creating smaller-scale applications. It is based on the Werkzeug toolkit and provides a simple but powerful API for building web applications. 
Unlike its full-stack counterparts, Flask provides a core set of features, focusing on URL routing, template rendering, and request handling. This minimalist approach makes Flask lightweight and easy to learn, allowing developers to build web applications quickly and without the burden of unnecessary complexity.

Is it planned that LOAD DATA takes into account several DATE/DATETIME formats with, for example, a parameter indicating the format used in the source data?

example :

LOAD DATA .../...
USING
{
  "from": {
    "file": {
       "dateformat": "DD/MM/YYYY"
    }
  }
}

Hi all,
Does anyone have experience with obtaining logs from Caché databases and parsing them now? Please leave me a message.

I ask because my project involves some hospitals that used Caché when creating databases over 10 years ago. Currently, we cannot replace the database, but we need to check and parse the database logs from the Caché.

Thanks.
