#InterSystems IRIS

I am building a web application that uses JWT for authentication. I would like to pass the token in cookies instead of the Authorization header.
Is there a way to intercept the request and check the token from the cookies instead of the header? I tried overriding the OnPreDispatch() method and adding it to my dispatch class, but it seems like it never gets executed, as the response returns "Unauthorized" before reaching it.

Hi Community,

Our Project Managers created a series of videos to highlight some of the interesting features of the new 2025.1 release. Please welcome the first one of them:

In this article, we’ll dive into the inner workings of the database management tool, exploring the architecture and technologies that power it. Understanding how the application functions behind the scenes will give you insight into its design, how it manages databases, tables, and how the API interacts with data.

It's been a while (and everyone is well-rested after Advent Of Code!) so let's run another round of Code Golf.

Your task is navigating in a grid-like labyrinth in a clockwise spiral pattern. As it traverses the matrix, it collects characters, revealing a secret message.
Your challenge: find the shortest, most elegant code to decode this spiral cipher.
Input:
1. A multidimensional string array with comma separated characters (n x n)
2. Starting coordinates X and Y

Output:
The decoded message as a single string

<> <> # IRIS-API-Template

This is a REST template that can send REST messages to production and control interfaces through Servicer, processes, and operations

How to use it

zpm "install iris-rest-template"

Prerequisites

Make sure you have git and Docker desktop installed.

During testing the added Multi-Namespace feature I met a challenge
that required intervention. This simple request created 1000 lines of output.

Mirroring only synchronizes database files.

To synchronize other files required for your application (CSP files, images, documents, etc.) between the two servers that make up the mirror set follow one of the approaches:

1. Place those files on a shared disk by introducing a NAS or similar device
2. Or use file sync software to synchronize files between two servers.

Hi all,

I'm exited to announce a GitHub Action to do direct deploy code from a github repository direct to a IRIS Instance.

How do you collect stack info when debugging non-interactive jobs?

I cobbled this together today from the docs, but maybe there's something pre-built? LOG^%ETN()?

I have a class with a projection that creates some persistent classes (chunks) and a non-persistent "Daemon" class that I want to have running in the background, doing some processing. The daemon needs to look at the "chunk" classes, and I want it to be simple to start the daemon -- I am currently calling the daemon's start method at the end of the CreateProjection method.

If you're migrating from Oracle to InterSystems IRIS—like many of my customers—you may run into Oracle-specific SQL patterns that need translation.

Take this example:

SELECT (TO_DATE('2023-05-12','YYYY-MM-DD') - LEVEL + 1) AS gap_date
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= (TO_DATE('2023-05-12','YYYY-MM-DD') - TO_DATE('2023-05-02','YYYY-MM-DD') + 1);

In Oracle:
