I have created a base for Global download as XML file

How to use:
 just call the page like http://<your_server>/csp/samples2/dc.Gdown.cls?GBL=global_name
gbl-name  without the initial ^ (caret)
The output has a default name <global_name>.XML  Your choice is available.

Known Limits:

• you have to install it at your sourcing server
• it is not tested/working across namespaces
• there is no partial download
• error handling is just basic or missing

There is space for personal improvements.
and this is it:

Class dc.Gdown Extends %CSP.

I'm using the PEX framework to create non-polling Business Services in Python. Below is the code I've used to instantiate my Python Business Service from the application I have written:

conn = iris.connect(...)
IRIS = iris.createIRIS(conn)
#...#
pexserv = iris.pex.Director.CreateBusinessService(conn, "Demo.PEX.FlaskPEXService")
response = pexserv.ProcessInput(record_id)
IRIS.close() # Release IRIS obj
conn.close()

The Service works fine, messages are received properly by the target Business Process as defined by my PEX service, however, every time I run

Hi developers!

Could you please advice what is the easiest way to download globals from a particular server?

I have the access to it, I know which globals I need to download/copy (5-7 globals per name). This is to perform then analysis in IRIS BI.

Hi Team,

Is there any way to take a clone object of executed query result of %SQL.Statement 

Set statement= ##Class(%SQL.Statement).%New()
Set pre = statement.%Prepare("Select * From TableName")
Set  result = = SQl.%Execute()
Write result.%ConstructClone(,.cc) ; ConstrcutClone was overridden in the class %SQL.StatementResult

I can loop result.%Next() multiple times if clone was taken from the object

We are updating a C# module which creates consumes an OdbcConnection from System.Data.Odbc.  This module used to create a DSN-less connection through the InterSystems Cache driver, and we are updating it to call the IRIS ODBC35 driver following migration of the target database.

Hi Community,

Whenever I insert a decimal value with trailing zero(ex:12.0000) value in my JSON object dynamically through %Set method. It truncates the trailing zeros. However If I use literal constructors { } It working as expected.  So, In my case the JSON will be generated dynamically. I can't go with "Curly Bracket { } " and the JSON schema not string as well.
Is there any way to fix this?

    set json = { "decimal": 12.000}
    zw json
    set json1= ##Class(%DynamicObject).%New()
    do json1.%Set("decimal", 12.000) ; this is consider as string
    do json1.

Hello,
I would like to do the following :

set name = $name(^A)
for i=1:1:10
{
    set $qsubscript(name, i) = "TEST"_i //dream code that does not work
}
set @name = "" //will create ^A("TEST1", "TEST2", "TEST3", ... , "TEST10") = ""

Unfortunately, unlike $PIECE(), $QSUBSCRIPT() is not bidirectional.

Is there a way to do what I described, in a clean way ? (something supported by the system) 

I would like to avoid :

- using a custom made solution (eg: appending keys one by one to a string, adding commas when needed) unless it's failproof (eg: can deal with commas in keys, non string

Hi,

i'm starting to try to switch to VS Code with ISC integration plugins.
Everything seems fine until i get to and environment with CCR enabled. I can't open any class in RW and i don't know how to check the class out.

Is it supported? What do i need to do to use it?

Thanks

As noted in the previous article Native API has some limits.
So I did some research on a more Terminal-like interface that
provides me with access like a console or the IRIS terminal
to allow my  $QUERY over a global and other nice commands
that are not supported/mapped in NativeAPI for ObjectScript.

The basic tools are well-prepared and available.

• Connection() creates a fully operational and stable partition for me
• Function() allows calling any routine or method I need
• similar ClassMethodValue and ClassMethodVoid

There is just no method CommandLine and some already prepared code is needed.

I have tried many methods from super classes of %CSP.REST but I can't find a method I can override that will run after the %response object is created so I can set a header that is common to each implementation method.  It's one line of code in each method to set the header but it would like to make it super easy, simple and just have a method that runs on, before, after the implementation method to set this common header (we want to return the API version in each responses HTTP headers.

Any ideas?

InterSystems IRIS Adaptive Analytics version 2023.2 is now available from the InterSystems Software Distribution site.  This new release brings along some great enhancements included with our partner AtScale's Version 2023.

InterSystems Kubernetes Operator (IKO) 3.6 is now Generally Available.  IKO 3.6 adds significant new functionality along with numerous bug fixes.  Highlights include:

• Easily include Web Gateway sidecars for compute and data nodes.

We are about to embark on a development where we'll be taking HL7 messages and generating PDF reports from them. We are wanting to future proof our development efforts within the constraints of our currently deployed platform and future upgrade options. We are currently running on Ensemble 2018, though an upgrade to Iris is anticipated - at some indeterminate point in the future. We are aware of Zen Reports and InterSystems Reports (Logi) as technology options, but are also unclear on some details. A roadmap and guidance from those who've done this kind of thing before would be great!

※Use this method if you want to compare databases that have been replicated using mirroring, shadowing, or some other mechanism.

You can use the DATACHECK utility to compare global variables. Please refer to the document below.

Hey ISC Community!

For a small automation feature I would like to login to the IRIS shell non-interactively, skipping the whole username and password prompts, providing the credentials through other means. Something in the fashion of "iris session <instance-name> --user myuser --pass mypass" would be great, but the session tool itself doesn't seem to be capable of doing this.

Does anyone know a way to accomplish this? It need not be through "iris session", any way that can be automated would be fine. Disabling authentication for the terminal is not an option, though.

In this article, we will analyze the intricacies of setting up tables and graphs to improve the readability of data.

Logi offers a rich set of data visualization tools. You can find anything from a wide variety of chart templates to custom CSS styles. Understanding the assortment of settings and options can be quite difficult. First, we will create a chart and a table with default settings, and give them a presentable look using InterSystems Reports (powered by Logi Report).

Suppose we need to display three directions of data at once on one chart.

Hello,

I have a EnsLib.HL7.Operation.FTPOperation that uses SFTP protocol and public/private key to connect to an external vendor moveitcloud.

Issue: The vendor is planning to enable Multi Factor Authentication for this file transfer account.

Question: Have you configured a SFTP operation to use Multi factor Authentication? If not, is there another way?

Thank you,

Hello,

What is the difference between the installation-kit for IRIS and IRIS_ML and is there a different licensing ?

If I had:

For "Cardinality = one" the SQL line below would be sufficient for archiving
INSERT INTO MN.Course (TeacherName, StudentName) VALUES ('Pierre','3')"

I am working on my first REST operation to send a API Request to an internal server within our Network. I have finally got past the point of being able to connect using a SSL/TLS Configuration, but I am getting a ERROR <Ens>ErrHTTPStatus: Received non-OK status 403 from remote HTTP server: 'HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden'.

I have tried using $$$TRACE within my operation to capture the different elements that are being sent to verify the Server, URL, SSL Configuration, and payload.

Introducing Django

Django is a web framework designed to develop servers and APIs, and deal with databases in a fast, scalable, and secure way. To assure that, Django provides tools not only to create the skeleton of the code but also to update it without worries. It allows developers to see changes almost live, correct mistakes with the debug tool, and treat security with ease.

To understand how Django works, let’s take a look at the image:

Hi,

I am new to Objectscript so need some help please.

How would I check a string for special characters as per below?

Thanks so much,

Hi All,

If I remember it correctly there is a functionality in IRIS to make this possible.

I've got two incoming Business Services of files from different sources.

BS1: An Ens.StreamContainer with some info and metadata which point to a specific file. Ens.StreamContainer will be send to a BP.

BS2: The files where the metadata points to. It's in the Ens.StreamContainer

But dependent on the flow the file could be later available on BS2. So I want the BPL to wait for the file to arrive at BS2. 

Then in the BPL I want to do some merging stuff with the 2 Ens.

Hi All,

We're doing our first babysteps with embedded Python and IRIS with an interoperability solution. We want to convert a CSV file to an Excel xlt file.

As service we've got a EnsLib.File.PassthroughService which picks up a csv file

As operation we've got a EnsLib.File.PassthroughOperation which writes the Excel file.

In the middle:

We've created an Business Process with an %Stream.GlobalCharacter in the Request and a %Stream.GlobalCharacter  in the Response.

But how do we get the %Stream.GlobalCharacter in the Python ClassMethod?
