InterSystems ObjectScript is a scripting language to operate with data using any data model of InterSystems Data Platform (Objects, Relational, Key-Value, Document, Globals) and to develop business logic for serverside applications on InterSystems Data Platform.
Happy new year! I’m Raj Singh, InterSystems’ product manager for Developer Experience and I’d love your feedback on how you use IDEs today and your thoughts for the future.
As AI-driven automation becomes an essential part of modern information systems, integrating AI capabilities into existing platforms should be seamless and efficient. The IRIS Agent project showcases how generative AI can work effortlessly with InterSystems IRIS, leveraging its powerful interoperability framework—without the need to learn Python or build separate AI workflows from scratch.
Suppose you have an application that allows users to write posts and comment on them. (Wait... that sounds familiar...)
For a given user, you want to be able to list all of the published posts with which that user has interacted - that is, either authored or commented on. How do you make this as fast as possible?
Here's what our %Persistent class definitions might look like as a starting point (storage definitions are important, but omitted for brevity):
The related package avoids adding %JSONAdaptor to each class but uses instead SQL functions JSON_OBJECT() to create my JSON objects. With this approach, you can add JSON to any class - even deployed ones - without any need for change or recompiling.
The trigger was the Export of M:N relationships as JSON objects or arrays.
It is with great pleasure that the CIUSSS de l'Estrie - CHUS is sharing the mocking framework it developed and presented at the InterSystems Summit 2017. I will update this post with more detailed instructions in the next few weeks but I wanted to share the code and presentation quickly :
Hi developers.
I often miss the ZPM program on a clean system.
Nothing complicated? Take and install.
And in one line? Especially in a docker container.
There is a solution. I'm very happy with it;)
Maybe the line can be shortened?
Recently, I migrated a series of Objectscript repositories from XML to UDL format.
After the migration, I was a bit disappointed by the presentation on the GitLab web interface.
Since Objectscript syntax is supported by GitHub, I thought It would be also supported by GitLab. Unfortunately, the library used by GitLab to highlight the code does not have an extension to support Objectscript.
I’m pleased to announce the 0.9 release of the ObjectScript extension for Visual Studio Code. Earlier this year I announced that InterSystems would be joining the community in evolving this already popular tool. Since then, we have been hard at work solidifying the code base and building a slew of new features.
Hello everyone, After some work with IRIS we want to share our ToolBox-4-Iris with you.
What is this about?
The ToolBox-4-Iris is an API for IRIS with a collection of handy and useful tools - features that are not available in IRIS, but greatly simplify application development. To save time and effort on the "typical tools" that every developer needs. This includes additional classes, individual methods or even more efficient macros, which are described in the respective packages.
The Caché / Ensemble standard distribution contains in namespace SAMPLES a nice example of a CSP page consuming WebService as a Client. I have modified it not only to display the replies but to feed them back into a Global. I used the classic Hyperevent to achieve this. The replies end up as a log in global^WSREPLY. When there is no input anymore the page closes and goes away.
There are 2 versions with visible and hidden display during operation. dc.WSCSP.reverseVerbose.cls and dc.WSCSP.reverseHidden.cls
One of the most common kinds of integration we are asked to do is emailing. One of the most typical email services our customers use is Microsoft’s Office 365. After setting up the right configuration on the Microsoft side, we can email from IRIS with two HTTP requests.
We have a yummy dataset with recipes written by multiple Reddit users, however most of the information is free text as the title or description of a post. Let's find out how we can very easily load the dataset, extract some features and analyze it using features from OpenAI large language model within Embedded Python and the Langchain framework.
This is a full example how to use a %ScrollableResultSet for results pagination using %DynamicQuery:SQL and build a JSON response including page details.
I recently realized it's been far too long since I talked about the latest features in the InterSystems ObjectScript Extension for Visual Studio Code.
I'm pleased to announce version 2.12.1 of the ObjectScript extension, containing a number of enhancements that make a developer's life easier. Some highlights are described below, including the #1 requested feature from Global Summit -- XML import!
Currently, I'm working on a project that requires highly dynamic event management. In the context of the Java programming language, my first instinct should be to opt for the "Observer Pattern", which is an approach to managing interactions between objects by establishing a notification mechanism. It allows multiple observers to react to changes in the state of a subject autonomously, promoting code flexibility and modularity. If you are not familiar with this design pattern, check out Wikipedia to find more information about it.
While it's natural and commonly used in certain programming languages as Java and C++, in ObjectScript, it's quite a different story.
For me, one of the most painful things about ObjectScript is ##class(Class).Method() typing to call a class method in code or in a terminal. I even submitted an idea to simplify it in ObjectScript.
But! There is a new feature in VSCode ObjectScript that was just introduced to the plugin - Copy Invocation!
This article is intended to be a simple tutorial on how to create ODBC connections and working with them, since I found starting with them a little bit confused, but I had amazing people to take my hand and walk me through it, and I think everyone deserves that kind of help too. I'm going to divide each little part in sections, so feel free to jump to the one you feel the need to, although I recommend reading everything.
In this article you will have access to the curated base of articles from the InterSystems Developer Community of the most relevant topics to learning InterSystems IRIS. Find top published articles ranked by Machine Learning, Embedded Python, JSON, API and REST Applications, Manage and Configure InterSystems Environments, Docker and Cloud, VSCode, SQL, Analytics/BI, Globals, Security, DevOps, Interoperability, Native API. Learn and Enjoy!
Many of you publish your InterSystems ObjectScript libraries on Open Exchange and Github.
But what do you do to ease the usage and collaboration to your project for developers?
In this article, I want to introduce the way how to introduce an easy way to launch and contribute to any ObjectScript project just by copying a standard set of files to your repository.
