⏯ Embedded Python with Interoperability

Welcome to day 3 of Virtual Summit 2021!  We have incredible content available to you this year and I'd just like to bring your attention to the 4(!) sessions that we have on Embedded Python.

• Introduction to Embedded Python - What is Embedded Python and Why is it awesome
• Embedded Python for ObjectScript developers - A technical deep dive into using Python and ObjectScript together inside IRIS
• Embedded Python with Interoperability - Covers how to use Embedded Python to create your own custom interoperability components.

Hey Developers, 

Please welcome the first session from the InterSystems Virtual Summit 2021:

⏯ Introduction to Embedded Python

At the recent virtual conference I saw the demonstration on being able to run Python within ObjectScript and run ObjectScript within Python thanks to a feature called Language Bridge.  Is this available now? If so, am I able to install it?  I am currently running HealthShare 2020.1.  I have a little bit of experience using Irisnative with Python but was intrigued with the more seamless-looking features offered by the Language Bridge.

Thanks for any insight.

I have just created a new Global Master Topic, "IRIS Cheatsheets". IRIS has introduced a lot of new functionality, especially in scripting languages, FHIR R4 support, enhanced Interoperability Tools, and IRIS Analytics. Having spent 35 years working on Windows-based PC's and Laptops, I have surprisingly little knowledge of Linux, Docker and Git. Furthermore, I have written almost every application and Interface in ObjectScript with splatterings of SQL, .Net, and Java Gateways and the most basic knowledge of WinSCP, Putty, SSH. All that changed when I received my first Raspberry Pi.

I was looking at the thread of messages on the topic of "Performance when constructing a comma-separated string", and I started writing a response but got distracted, the page refreshed, and I lost my text. I couldn't spend the time rewriting my response, so I started writing this document instead.

I started writing MUMPS at the beginning of my career. I wrote very tight and dense code blocks where exercises such as the string example were authentic challenges.

Since I saw many posts on Developer Community related to Python, and the very good articles and application written by @Eduard Lebedyuk I was wondering: "As a Object Script developer, why would I want to use an other  language in Object Script? If I ever need to execute something in Object Script, I would do it in Object Script!".

I thought those functionalities to use other languages in Object Script were made only for other languages developers who have to write Object Script code.

Recently I had to parse a huge CSV file : 1.7Gb and more than 5 millions lines.

Hi Community,

⏯ iKnow: Open Source NLP in InterSystems IRIS

Continuing the description of work on the use of the openhl python module in productive mode.

Since the version of iris with Embedded Python, does not yet have a final release, it is already necessary to use it in production now. We decided to back up the service for exporting requests to a xlsx file on a separate server, and save the query result in a global in a separate database.

This database was made networked, local for the service server and remote for the product server. The communication between the prod server and the service was implemented using a rest service.

⏯ Embedded Python: Bring the Python Ecosystem to Your ObjectScript App

Hello I am in My 2nd year of Engineering, and want to learn Python Programing Language, Please suggest to me the best books and best online resources that will help me to learn the python language.

Hey Developers,

We have some good news for you:

💥 InterSystems AI contest participants can use Embedded Python in their solutions! So if you are not yet a member of the Embedded Python Early Access Program (EAP), now is the time! 

Refer to python-interest@intersystems.com and you'll get FREE access to the InterSystems IRIS Embedded Python features.

In addition, we invite all EAP participants to the special Embedded Python kick-off webinar tomorrow, July 6 at 10:00 AM EDT – an easy start on how to use Embedded Python! Demonstration of the new features of the data platform, examples applications, and of course rewards. 

After you become an EAP member, you will receive a special link to join the kick-off webinar:

➡️ RSVP: python-interest@intersystems.com

For a long time, we have been using a utility in production to export the result of a query to an Excel spreadsheet. Moreover, we have applied a modification of it, in which the explicit setting of column formats is a priority.

This utility used the module %SYS.ZENReportExcelExporter and is based on a java program. Every year the report grew and there was not enough java RAM, so we had to increase the value of the environment variable. The value has reached 7gb and now it has become a problem.

We decided to find and create a replacement for the utility.

We’re looking for Python developers to participate in our Embedded Python Early Access Program!  If you (or someone you know) are a Python developer and are interested, please contact us via the email address below.

InterSystems is bringing the power and simplicity of Python to IRIS.  We’re hard at work integrating Python directly into the IRIS kernel, making it a full peer to ObjectScript.

Hi Developers,

Hi Community,

See how the new embedded Python feature enables you to write user-defined SQL functions and stored procedures in Python:

⏯ Embedding Python in SQL: Write Your Stored Procedures in Python

Is there a way to automatically transform Object Script arrays to Python lists?  This code results in a list of arrays

Iter0 =  dbnative.iterator("HS.Data.OIDMapD")
for subscript, value in Iter0.items():
    print(f"subscript={subscript}, value={value}")

Here is the result:

subscript=1, value=2.16.840.1.113883.3.86ISCInterSystems Corporation

I suppose it would be too hard to parse this into a list, I was just wondering if there was a function provided to make it convenient and proper.

Thanks,

Hello,

I believe that the Perl and Python bindings that exist on Cache / Ensemble do not exist on IRIS for Health 2020.1 ... is that correct?

Is there any similar documentation and samples (like below) , that show an example of how to run a basic Perl or Python script that connects with ODBC or whatever the recommended way?

http://docs.intersystems.com/cache20102/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls…

Thanks

I was interested in accessing IRIS (Healthshare) using Python.  I found instructions how to this here: https://github.com/intersystems/quickstarts-python/tree/master/Solution…

The installation went well using pip and when python executes "import irisnative" it works fine.  It just fails with a connection timeout when I try "irisnative.createConnection(...)."  Below is my code:

import irisnative

# Modify connection info based on your environment
ip = "10.10.74.225"   # VPN connection to server
port = 58772
namespace = "HSREGISTRY"
username = "my-user"
password = "secret"

# create database connection and IRIS instance
connection = irisnative.createConnection(ip,port,namespace,username,password)
dbnative = irisnative.createIris(connection)

Keyword: Pandas DataFrame, IRIS, Python, JDBC

Purpose

Pandas DataFrame is popular tool for EDA (Exploratory Data Analysis). In ML tasks, the first thing we usually perform is to understand the data a bit more. Last week I was trying this Covid19 dataset in Kaggle Basically the data is a spreadsheet of 1925 encounter rows with 231 columns, and the task is simply to predict whether a patient (linked to  1 or more encounter records) would be admitted to ICU. So it's a normal classification task, and we would as usual use padas.DataFrame to take a quick look first.

AWS Glue is a fully managed ETL (extract, transform, and load) service that makes it simple and cost-effective to categorize your data, clean it, enrich it, and move it reliably between various data stores.

In the case of InterSystems IRIS, AWS Glue allows moving large amounts of data from both Cloud and on-Prem data sources into IRIS.

Hello All, Can anyone tell me whats the best python IDE and code editors? I am a little bit confused between Eclipse + Pydev,  Pycharm, Sublime Text,  Visual Studio Code, Vim,  GNU/Emacs,  Atom/Atom-IDE, Cloud9. 

hello, I had build a DocDB referring the code from here: https://community.intersystems.com/post/how-can-i-create-properties-doc…

Here are the structure of the json Documents I have added in my database called 'Orders'.

Hi developers!

Recently we announced the preview of Embedded Python technology in InterSystems IRIS.

Check the Sneak Peak video by @Robert.Kuszewski.

Embedded python gives the option to load and run python code in the InterSystems IRIS server. You can either use library modules from Python pip, like numpy, pandas, etc, or you can write your own python modules in the form of standalone py files.

So once you are happy with the development phase of the IRIS Embedded Python solution there is another very important question of how the solution could be deployed.

One of the options you can consider is using the ZPM Package manager which is described in this article.

Hi Community,

Find out how you can use the open-source iKnow engine in Python within InterSystems IRIS.

Making a blog using Python + IRIS Globals

Since I started to use internet (late 90's), I always had a CMS (content management system) present to make easier post any information in a blog, social media or even an enterprise page. And later years putting all my code into github I used to document it on a markdown file. Observing how easy could be persisting data into Intersystems IRIS with the Native API I decided to make this application and force myself to forget a little of SQL and stay open to key-value database model.

What is a blog?

I cannot find those folders under my IRIS install dev folder.  Those were in my cache install dev folder.

Will InterSystems drop those support?  If yes, why are there some discussion about Python/Iris in this forum?

Of course, I wish IS continue to support those.
