#REST API

Hey Developers!

We're pleased to announce the next competition of creating open-source solutions using InterSystems IRIS! Please welcome:

⚡️ InterSystems Full Stack Contest ⚡️

Duration: September 21 - October 11, 2020

Hi everyone,

I am very pleased to announce that the Readmission Demo has been released as open source. Many thanks to the Solution Factory team that worked hard on making this possible.

Here are the changes:

• It is now running on top of IRIS Community 2019.3.0.308.0.
• It has synthetic data based on Synthea instead of the real data we were using before. But the machine learning models are 100% real
• Image RRLACESrv has been renamed to “image-riskengine”
• Image “readmissionsrv” has been renamed to “image-risksrv"
• We refactored a lot of the code on image-riskengine to look better.

InterSystems offers an API-design first approach.

You can check this post for more informations : https://community.intersystems.com/post/iris-api-explorer-application.

One practical thing about this approch and the OpenAPI specification is the definition of exchange objects.

The do ^%REST command does not create object definitions, but only routes and associated methods.

Output for the do ^%REST command for PetShop example :

Hot on the heels of our announcement last week about our ultra-high-performance mg-dbx-napi JavaScript interface for IRIS, we are now pleased to announce a significant new technology - mg_web - which not only represents a new paradigm for JavaScript Web Frameworks, but also delivers significantly higher performance than even the fastest of the established Node.js Web Frameworks, whilst leveraging all the benefits of the big-three industry-standard Web Servers.

For many in today's interoperability landscape, REST reigns supreme. With the overabundance of tools and approaches to REST API development, what tools do you choose and what do you need to plan for before writing any code?

Now that you've learned how to create a REST API in the REST & Relaxation webinar, see how you can successfully make it big. Join @Eduard Lebedyuk, InterSystems Sales Engineer, for REST API Design and Development. You'll learn design patterns and considerations that allow you to build highly robust, adaptive, and consistent REST APIs.

Bulid REST API application built with ObjectScript in InterSystems IRIS. It also has OPEN API spec,  can be developed with Docker and VSCode, can be deployed as ZPM module. can be used as Overbooking System data REST api.

What's Hotel Overbooking Management System?

The overbooking management system combines the unique conditions of the hotel, such as room prices, order channels, customer needs (etc.).

Hey Developers,

The GA release is now published for the 1.5 version of the InterSystems API Manager (IAM).

The container for IAM, including all relevant artifacts to upgrade from earlier versions of IAM can be downloaded from the WRC Software Distribution site in the Components area.

The build number for this release is IAM 1.5.0.9-4.

InterSystems API Manager 1.5 makes it easier to manage your API traffic, integrate with your environment and onboard users of your APIs. It has many new capabilities, including:

• Improved User Experience
• Introducing new Developer Portal tools
• Support for Kafka connectivity

Hello community,

I'd like to briefly announce three new packages, available on the Open Exchange / through ZPM, that can really help accelerate modern full-stack application development on IRIS. I announced all of these in a Global Summit session last week, but you may have missed it - and I hear there's a full-stack application development contest coming up!

At the heart of this is isc.rest: a continuation of apps-rest with broader use within InterSystems and some new killer features - most notably, OpenAPI spec generation. isc.

As an advanced alternative for REST calls, the new vue-qewd plugin for Vue.js allows easy integration with QEWDjs using WebSockets.

Hey Developers!

This week is a voting week for the InterSystems Full Stack Contest!

So, it's time to give your vote to the best solutions built with InterSystems IRIS.

🔥 You decide: VOTING IS HERE 🔥

How to vote? This is easy: you will have one vote, and your vote goes either in Experts Nomination or in Community Nomination.

Hi Community,

You may have heard about our mg-dbx-napi interface for IRIS which provides insanely fast access from Node.js.  If you've been following recent developments in the server-side JavaScript world, you'll be excited to know that mg-dbx-napi also works with Bun.js, the latter proving to be significantly faster than Node.js for many/most purposes.

Of course, if you're a Node.js user, you'll probably wonder how mg-dbx-napi compares with the Native API for Node.js that is included with IRIS.

Hello Everyone,

The Certification Team of InterSystems Learning Services is developing an InterSystems IRIS Developer Professional certification exam, and we are reaching out to our community for feedback that will help us evaluate and establish the contents of this exam.

Note: This exam will replace the current InterSystems IRIS Core Solutions Developer Specialist exam when it is released. Please note from the target role description below that the focus of the new exam will be more on developer best practices and a lot less on the ObjectScript programming language.

How do I provide my input?

Hi Community,
