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.

 I think WebTerminal is an outstanding project, kudos to @Nikita Savchenko

One useful functionality is missing, the the ability to run Operating System (Linux or Windows) commands.
In many cases WebTerminal is used when access to the OS is difficult, so having the ability do run simple OS commands from WebTerminal would be a big advantage.
Using "normal" terminal, be it Windows IRIS console, Windows Telnet or within "iris session" in linux is simple, from the IRIS terminal prompt just precede the OS command with "$" or "!".
See the article "Terminal tip: Running OS-level commands" from @John.

A tool (^GLOBUFF utility) is available to check the database cache usage for each global variable.

You can run the utility directly or programmatically in the %SYS namespace.

Here's how to run the utility directly:

USER>zn "%SYS"
 
%SYS>do ^GLOBUFF
 
Find which globals are using the most buffers.
 
Display the top <25>:     → Press Enter  // Default is to display top 25 globals
 
Total buffers: 102400     Buffers in use: 6926     PPG buffers: 77 (1.

You can set the maximum size of the IRISTemp database at IRIS startup by setting a configuration parameter called MaxIRISTempSizeAtStart.

After setting, the system will truncate IRISTemp to the set value (MB) at the next IRIS startup. If the current size is less than the specified MaxIRISTempSizeAtStart, no truncation will occur. Also, if 0 is specified, truncation will not be performed, so the size will start without changing. (Default) Settings are made from the menu below.

InterSystems FAQ rubric

To run an online backup from a command you can use the API BACKUP^DBACK routine.
An example of performing a full backup is as follows.

set  status = $$ BACKUP ^DBACK( "" , "F" , "full backup" , "c:\backup\full.cbk" , "Y" , "c:\backup\full-log.log" , " NOINPUT" , "Y" , "Y" , "" , "" )

The return value is 1 if the backup is successful, and 0 if the backup is unsuccessful. Please refer to the log file for details on failure.

Additionally, you can specify C for the second argument TYPE to specify a cumulative backup, and specify I to specify a differential backup.

In my previous articles, I described my Command Line Extension to NativeAPI.
Of course, this is also available for any other NativeAPI package.
So I created this example as a demo for the actual Java Contest.
<--break->
The package contains also an IRIS server in Docker for the demo
It is evident that it also works with any remote IRIS server.
You just have to provide it with my NativeAPI CommandLine Extension.

I think this demo is easy to follow and shows the essential features.

This is the related article to the package in Java Contest. 
I decided to present a CRUD++ Global Editor based on IRIS Native API for Java.
++ because it’s a little bit more than just Create, Read, Update, Delete
Visualization of a global is always important to review results immediately.

  • For this purpose, I have extended the API with a Tree Viewer that mimics  ZWrite and allows also the examination of subtrees.
  • A $Query Style Navigator Forward and Reverse operating for easy finding the Global node of interest.

InterSystems FAQ rubric

To create a user-defined error you need to prepare the XML that describes the error code and corresponding message that you want to use as a user-defined error.

Please set the error code as a negative integer.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> 
<MsgFile Language="en">
  <MsgDomain Domain="UserErrors">
    <Message Id="-111" Name="MyError">An error has occured</Message> 
    <Message Id="-222" Name="MyError2">An error has occured 2</Message> 
  </MsgDomain>
</MsgFile>

Once the XML file is created, load it into the namespace you want to use.

I want to convert a string to uppercase that may or may not be a $LIST so that I can do a case insensitve search. However, when looking at what constitutes a $LIST I can see something that looks like it follows these rules:

Example: S X=$LISTBUILD("hello","world!")  gives X=$C(7,1)_"hello"_$C(8,1)_"world!

Which process notify Web Gateway when to switch to secondary/mirror IRIS? I'm trying to debug a case when the web gateway doesn't know about primary IRIS failure and is trying to send request to that instance which is causing 500 error. Also, no clue why at the same time I see that GET request to /csp/bin/mirror_status.cxw will return 200 OK.

Our setup is 2 web gateways, primary IRIS, secondary/mirror IRIS and an arbiter.

Hi community members!

Recently a customer ask me about a problem that detected when they were trying to send a post call to an external HTTP service, this service has changed and now it redirects to another URL, so they have setted to true the FollowRedirect parameter (setted to false for POST calls by default), what is the problem? They are sending a custom header in the post call and after the redirection this value is deleted.

I've reviewed the code of %Net.

Why should you connect Flask to InterSystems IRIS?

    The first thing that comes to mind when we think about combining Flask with IRIS is a portal to interact with your clients and partners. A good example would be a website for patients to access their clinical exams. Of course, this case would require a whole new layer of security, which we did not cover in our last article. However, we can effortlessly add it with Werkzeug, for instance.

We recently published a new White Paper on the use of reporting nodes ("asynchronous reporting mirror members" in full) in a mirrored environment. More and more customers are looking into this mechanism as a quick and easy way to set up a copy of their production data that stays current, yet can be used for analytical querying or heavy-duty reporting workloads without impacting the source system. Read the White Paper here.

I am trying to use git-source-control with IRIS. 

Things are moving along well. I have installed git, ipm/ zpm, git-source-control. I have done the initial configuration and initialized the repository. I am hoping there is some documentation available to describe how to use this within Studio. I see a new option on my toolbar labeled "Git". It gives me options Status, Settings, Launch Git UI, Push to remote branch, Fetch from remote, Pull changes from remote branch, Create a new branch, Check out an existing branch, Export All, Export All (Force), Import All, and Import All (Force).

The part II you will learn how to run any Jasper report file (jrxml file) designed on Jasper Studio from InterSystems IRIS. We will create a REST API to return a processed report on PDF format.

The jrxml file

On part I, we designed this report:

1. First of all, rename the report from Blank_A4.jrxml to sample.jrxml (Project Explorer tab > click right the file > Rename):

See renamed file:

2. Click right the sample.jrxml file > Properties and see the file Location:

Question MARK PONGONIS · Nov 9, 2023

Is there a function that will check if an http request was successful or not? Maybe something similar to c# respose.IsSuccessStatusCode? %Status still returns success even if the response status code equals say 404.

Ex.

http=##class(%Net.HttpRequest).%New()
http.Server="example.com"
tsc = http.Get()   
http.HttpResponse.StatusCode    <== this is where i would like to check the status without having to write a custom function

I wanted to provide a heads up of an improvement in how we generate and call method code in IRIS 2023.1.

A class in IRIS is composed of two main runtime components:

  1. Class Descriptor - A highly optimized list of methods, properties, class parameters that make up the class along with attributes associated with each of these e.g. public/private setting.
  2. ObjectScript code - A set of routines that contain the ObjectScript code to be executed when a method is called.

First of all, thanks for your help, and time, reading this questions, and answering to this doubt.

We have the following use case: to convert a HL7 ER7 ORU_R01 v2.5 message, to a Ens.Request Message which represent it with a custom data structure (each segment is a group of Properties).

To be more precise, the target Ens.Request Message's structure looks like:

{

Parameter RESPONSECLASSNAME = "Mensajes.Response.ConsentimientoInformado.HUC.

Introduction

InterSystems would like to optimize IRIS to take advantage of modern CPU instruction set extensions.  That’s great for product performance, but how do you know if your CPU will still be supported for new IRIS builds?  Here’s how to know your CPU’s microarchitecture family as well as how to find out your CPU’s specific instruction set extensions.
