If you restart the OS after changing the machine name without stopping InterSystems IRIS (hereinafter referred to as IRIS), a problem occurs when IRIS cannot start.

To get started, delete the <installation directory>\mgr\iris.ids file.

iris.ids file stores the started node name and shared memory information (shared memory ID). It is created when IRIS starts and deleted when stopped (iris stop or iris force). If you stop (restart) the OS without stopping IRIS, iris.ids, which contains IRIS startup information, may remain.

IRIS checks iris.ids during the next startup

If Iris does propose to create keys following a sequence, how can we obtain a sequential number in another context?

In my case, I automatically create care centers, and I want to set them a number like:

APP-DD-999

APP = Name of the application used by the center
DD = center department number
999: sequential number in the department
It is of course possible that centers will be created in competition, so this possible competition must be managed.

My first approach was to use a persistent class and create a new object to retrieve its id, but this involves creating as many classes as departments

How to clone dynamic objects more efficiently than using a serialization/desserialization approach (eg. Set objectB = {}.%FromJSON(objectA.%ToJSON()) ) ?

Why %DynamicObject could not extend %RegisteredObject and its %ConstructClone method (if not inherit it)?

Embedded Python is about to get a whole lot more powerful, and we’re looking for a few volunteers to give it a try.

What’s the Flexible Python Runtime?

The Flexible Python Runtime option allows you to use a Python runtime of your choosing with Embedded Python. Previous to this, you could only use the operating system's default Python, which was limiting especially for customers using the latest and greatest AI & ML tools close to their data.

When InterSystems introduced Embedded Python in InterSystems IRIS in 2021.2, it was designed to work with just the version of Python that is pre-inst

Hello Community,

Is there any way to avoid generating the built in validation inside the classmethod from the .disp class definition. I've added the resource with path parameter as integer in swagger 2.0 open API.  The class method(in my case getRandom is the class method) inside .disp handles the integer validation by default. Is there a way to avoid/remove by default.

Hey

I need to know how to exclude row after checking his data, for example:

^global(1,2)=a*b

^global(1,3)=a*c

This article will cover turning over control of provisioning the InterSystems Kubernetes Operator, and starting your journey managing your own "Cloud" of InterSystems Solutions through Git Ops practices. This deployment pattern is also the fulfillment path for the PID^TOO||| FHIR Breathing Identity Resolution Engine.

Git Ops

I encourage you to do your own research or ask your favorite LLM about Git Ops, but I can paraphrase it here for you as we understand it. Git Ops is an alternative deployment paradigm, where the Kubernetes Cluster itself is "pulling" updates from manifests that reside i

Hello everyone!
Sorry for the vague title! But I wonder what would be the best way to easily import a large XML-file into a production, modifying it by deleting elements and nodes depending on what values are in those nodes/elements and later creating whole new XML-file from that?

I have gone through this: Using Caché XML Tools | Caché & Ensemble 2018.1.4 – 2018.1.8 (intersystems.com)

But I get the sense that there are a lot of ways of approaching this, but I do not know what is the most effective for my certain needs.

I appreciate the help! Thanks beforehand! :)
 

Outside of the learning module for IAM, I would like to give it a try with Community Edition on my own however the Community Edition License does not include it.

Has there been any discussion on allowing Company's Demo IAM through Community Edition before they get the license?

Thanks

Hello everyone!
I have to build a REST service that receives a POST HTTP-request, collect a file from that request in the Form data and then send it in another HTTP Post request through Form Data. However I can't really seem to send the file, and I do not know where it has gone wrong. All I am getting told is that no file is being received from my HTTP Post request. I am reaching the REST Service I am supposed to send the request to, but nothing is being sent.
I would be really thankful if someone could give some insight why nothing is being sent in my request. Thanks beforehand! :)

• I take a time stamp and convert it to a PosixTime
• Then for an Timezone offset (for example America/New_York would be -05:00) convert it to seconds  -18000
• I add the -18000 to the PosixTime
• I convert the PosixTime to time stamp - shouldn't the time stamp show a lot more of a difference?  
• 
• I am guessing that adding -18000 is not really a difference of 5 hours?   What am I missing?

Thanks,

I have an existing Python script that opens a child session using the pexpect library. But currently all it does is send hard-coded commands to the Cache process and expect a hard-coded response back in order to continue in the script.

I would like to run a Cache routine from the script, pass in a parameter, and wait for a response that will be different every time (a date, in this case). So the call would be something like D $$Tag^Routine(parameter) and wait for the routine to complete and return the response.

Is there a way to do this? I am looking at the Python subprocess module, but not

I would be interested to know is it possible to implement alerts about messages (errors etc that show in message viewer or event log) to show in the SAM portal? So far I've only been able to see system alerts there.

Hello !

I'm using a ZEN TablePan component to display the result of a specific SQL request on a ZEN Page : 

The result is displayed as follow : 

However i got an issue with the filters on the different columns,

it doesn't work at all

( it works just fine for some other ZEN pages where i use the default TableName property on the TablePan component )

Any clues how to make work the filter when using OnCreateResultSet property on a TablePan component ?

Thanks

I'm receiving a JSON payload via a REST API, I'd like to %JSONImport this stream into a class which extends %JSON.Adaptor. The problem is that the JSON is an array whose elements have no key (as you can see in the example JSON below). Right now I'm having to do some manipulations to convert the stream into a dynamic object and do a %Set which inserts a made up key "record" so "thingone" and "thingtwo" have an associated key that I can use when referencing "thingone" and "thingtwo"...such as record.GetAt(1).thingone

I'm also finding myself having to do the reverse when sending payloads back ou

Can you please provide the package for adding new column in the FHIR table using additional package for the boolean datatype.

Please provide all the code for all three file for boolean datatype.

Working on a project where we have a web browser that we have to determine a pickup date/time for a pharmacy in a different time zones.

We store the different time zones with their Daylight and Standard offsets.

We have a object script method that figures out the the pickup date/time for a particular pharmacy in their local time zone but the data is being returned in the $H format.   

We now need to return it in a UTC format.  I see different methods but don't see a method that will change the $H into a UTC for a different timezone otherwise than the local timezone.

In part I of this article, we have already learned more about HL7, its messages, structure, segments, and fields. In this part II, we will show you how to transform proprietary/custom data into HL7 using IRIS for Health. For our sample, we used the data generated by the SYNTHEA bulk data generation project (https://synthea.mitre.org/downloads). So, we will show you how to convert 1000 patients from a CSV file to HL7 v2, using the Interoperability features of IRIS for Health.

Hi all

I'm having trouble defining the mapping needed to take the very large base64 string in OBX:5.5, and map it to an XML virtual document property that supports Stream.GlobalCharacter. I know from within the DTL you have to use custom code to manage the segment due to its size.

In the world of Big Data, selecting the right file format is crucial for efficient data storage, processing, and analysis. With the massive amount of data generated every day, choosing the appropriate format can greatly impact the speed, cost, and accuracy of data processing tasks. There are several file formats available, each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages, making the decision of which one to use complex. Some of the popular Big Data file formats include CSV, JSON, Avro, ORC, and Parquet. The last one, Parquet, is a columnar storage format that is highly compressed and sepa

The new $system.external interface (aka "InterSystems External Servers") is used to call/integrate with external language code/libraries, it replace the old gateways (for example Java gateway) that required the import of proxy objects.

Note that the documentation for the old gateways has been removed from IRIS, so only the new $system.external interface is somewhat (i.e. insufficiently) documented.

Regarding the migration from old gateway to new  $system.external interface the documentation says:

External servers use an enhanced and simplified form of the older Dynamic Object Gateway techno

Hi Developers, 

We'd like to highlight some outstanding projects created during the European Healthcare Hackathon 2023 in Prague. 
Participants were presented with nine real-world healthcare challenges by IKEM and AstraZeneca.  
InterSystems introduced to the participants an opportunity to use the FHIR repository and perform FHIR availability into their solutions by providing FHIR cloud services on AWS.

Meet the winners of our challenge:

1st place Čarodějové (PathoSync)

"The PathoSync software is a solid base for complex pathologist platforms. With the use of custom mapping, any laboratory can project their data into FHIR7 standard, which soon will be mandatory worldwide. This makes the digitalization process smoother. The connection with InterSystems assures quality and implements many healthcare features. Furthermore, the GDPR norms are strictly followed using the FHIR server based in Europe, so the usage of software follows the European standards."

Hi developers!

Today I would like to address a subject that has given me a hard time. I am sure this must have been the case for quite a number of you already (so-called “the bottleneck”). Since this is a broad topic, this article will only focus on identifying incoming HTTP requests that could be causing slowness issues. I will also provide you with a small tool I have developed to help identify them.

Our software is becoming more and more complex, processing a large number of requests from different sources, be it front-end or third-party back-end applications. To ensure optimal performance, it is essential to have a logging system capable of taking a few key measurements, such as the response time, the number of global references and the number of lines of code executed for each HTTP response. As part of my work, I get involved in the development of EMR software as well as incident analysis.  Since user load comes mostly from HTTP requests (REST API or CSP application), the need to have this type of measurement when generalized slowness issues occur has become obvious.

I have a message class define. But sometimes the RelatedItems fields is not returned. 

Parameter %JSONIGNOREINVALIDFIELD As BOOLEAN = 1;

Property RequestedTerm As AH.AHLIB.Custom.Symedical.Message.PostRelationResponse.termsRequested;

Respnse normally will return someting like this,

on ocassion the RelatedItems are not returned

have response context variable defined as the custom message type

How do I check in a BPL if there is no RelatedItems  in the response?
