I am pleased to announce the next 2016.2 field test kit, 2016.2.0.595.0.

It may look like a slow week, with less than fifty changes having been checked in, but this kit includes the following fixes to problems found by you, the ones running the kits in the field:

How can IRIS productions be deployed more quickly and with greater peace of mind?

The aim of interoperability productions is to enable you to connect systems in order to transform and route messages between them. To connect systems, you develop, configure, deploy and manage productions that integrate several software systems.

There is an example on JSON XDATA.
But it only describes Name mapping.

Is it possible to define somehow also a structural mapping
e..g an Array of Arrays Structure: without property names

[
[12,33], [88,44]
]

The power of the presented tool becomes visible with a large JSON file.
The example I have prepared is composed of the daily results of AoC 2023.
Anonymization makes it usable for demo purposes.

Hi Developers!!,

I know what you are thinking... a new feature for ZEN.proxyObject...? NOW..???

In Spain we say that better late than never ;-)

Have you ever need to send a numeric attribue of a Json in String format?

Did you go crazy casting class objects with fixed typed properties?

Lucky you!!

With this new feature I propose a way to continue working with our loved dynamic object %ZEN.proxyObject, being able to choose whether or not we want to send numeric attributes in String format.

Hi Community,

I have json equivalent persistent object in pjsonObj variable. Final JSON example below.

{
"Document": {
"FileExtension": "pdf",
"FileContent": "JVBERi0xLjUNCiW1tbW1DQo...(very large bsae64 string)"
}
}

Here FileContent field in json will contain converted base64 string of very large pdf(10pages). I need to submit this json as a payload to REST endpoint.

below code is working fine.

I have defined a class with a dynamic object property:

Class test.Dyn Extends %Persistent
{

Property json As %DynamicObject;

/// do ##class(test.Dyn).test()
ClassMethod test()
{
  do ..%KillExtent()
  for len = 100, $$$MaxStringLength - 1, $$$MaxStringLength, $$$MaxStringLength+1, $$$MaxStringLength *2 {
    set sc = ..save(len)
    write "Len: ",len, " Result: ",$case($$$ISERR(sc), $$$YES: $System.Status.GetErrorText(sc), : "OK"),!
  }
}

ClassMethod save(len)
{
  set json = {}
  set stream = ..getStream(len-8) // -8 because {"a":""}
  do json.%Set("a", stream, "stream")
 
  set obj = ..%New()
  set obj.json = json
  quit obj.%Save()
}

ClassMethod getStream(len)
{
  set stream = ##class(%Stream.TmpCharacter).%New()
 
  if len<$$$MaxStringLength {
    do stream.Write($tr($j("",len)," ","A"))
  } else {
    for i=1:$$$MaxStringLength:len {
      do stream.Write($tr($j("",$$$MaxStringLength)," ","A"))
    }
    do stream.Write($tr($j("",len-i)," ","A"))
  }
  quit stream
}
}

The issue I encounter is that if a length of a serialized json property is more than 3641144 symbols, the object fails to save with the following error (either MAXSTRING or STRINGSTACK):

Length: 100 Result: OK
Length: 3641143 Result: OK
Length: 3641144 Result: OK
Length: 3641145 Result: ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <MAXSTRING>%GetSerial+1^%Library.DynamicAbstractObject.1
Length: 7282288 Result: ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <STRINGSTACK>%GetSerial+1^%Library.DynamicAbstractObject.1

Is there a workaround? I need to store moderately large jsons (10-15 Mb) and dynamic object properties allow for a very convenient access.

$ZSTORAGE is set to -1.

Hi guys,

It's FHIR contest and this time, they provided something really cool: FHIRaaS

And to be part of this, @José Pereira and I team up (again) to deliver something easy to use and easy to understand how we did.

@José Pereira and I created a good project, and we want to introduce a few words about this project to you.

What is IRIS RAD Studio?

IRIS RAD Studio is our idea of a low-code solution to show what's possible, to make the developer's life easier.

I enjoy the challenge of being in a contest. Currently I participate in InterSystems IRIS with REST API Programming Contest. My idea for this contest was to create an app to help me keep track of tasks for my Status Reports. I started with the template provided by Evgeny Shvarov. I created a persistent class for Tasks and a REST Dispatch class. I defined my URL map and I even figured out how to test my REST app using Postman.

Hi Community!

Enjoy watching the new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube, recorded by @Joel Solon, InterSystems Senior Technical Trainer:

Yes, that was the plan. This is a pretty important topic, so it get's its own Article

Up until now, we've display widget JSON that has been created by a basic loop. Clearly this isn't of much value. Now we have our stack connected together, and we can see that the data is flowing to the Welcome page, it's time to complete the stack and start feeding our service from "real" data.

Hi.

It is easy to receive JSON representation or dynamic Array from %ListOfDataTypes:

set l=##class(%ListOfDataTypes).%New()
do l.Insert("a")
do l.Insert("b")
do l.Insert("c")

set arrStr=l.$toJSON()
zwrite arrStr
set arr=l.$compose([])
zwrite arr

How to make backward conversion? How to receive %ListOfDataTypes from dynamic Array an JSON string?

I've tried

In our last lesson, we added a form to Edit our existing Widgets, and save them back to the server. However, our Form was not well structured and our Save button had no intelligence, and was not fully visible. So today, we will apply some Material components and Angular style to make the form more useful
