#Source Control

2

Source control (or version control) is the practice of tracking and managing changes to code. Source control management (SCM) systems provide a running history of code development and help to resolve conflicts when merging contributions from multiple sources.

Hey everyone, I am implementing version control with git-source-control on our codebase and I ran into a pretty strange issue. I believe I have the set up (mostly) correct as the behavior with .cls files is exactly as expected. However, I noticed that git is not keeping track of any changes to CSP files.

Specifically, if a new CSP file is created and saved, I will get the following output:

exporting new version of /csp/testdb/wrc.csp to C:\InterSystems\IRIS\mgr\repo\TESTDB\csp\testdb\wrc.csp

It's been a while since I've posted about Embedded Git on the Developer Community, and I'd like to provide an update on the massive amount of work we've done this year and where we're going next.

Context

If you're building solutions on IRIS and want to use Git, that's great! Just use VSCode with a local git repo and push your changes out to the server - it's that easy.

But what if:

An effective source control solution allows organizations to manage complex codebases, facilitate seamless collaboration within development teams, and streamline deployment processes.

Sonic Healthcare, a leading provider of pathology, radiology, general practice, and corporate medical services, has significantly enhanced visibility and control over its complex environment by implementing Deltanji source control. The tight integration Deltanji provides with InterSystems IRIS and IRIS for Health has been central in achieving these improvements.

The Application Services team is pleased to announce the release of git-source-control version 2.4.0, introducing several new features to the open-source project.

For those unfamiliar, git-source-control is an embedded (or "server-side") source control tool for InterSystems products, installed through the InterSystems Package Manager.

Here are the key additions to the 2.4.0 release:

Hello everyone,

My team is currently developing guidance and best practices for the generation, storage, and deployment of TUNE TABLE statistics across development and production environments. With that in mind, we want to get an idea of what methods teams in the field have developed for handling this data. In particular, we’d like to know the following:

I'm testing git-source-control and I have problem with a CSP application.

I was able to configure in settings a CSP application that use the path /csp/myapp, that worked.

I have another application /slg and I'm unable to add it to Git.
I created the mapping as "/CSP/" - "/slg" - "csp/slg/", then in Studio when I right click on the CSP folder in the Namespace Work Area, select Git -> Add:

Hi All! For those of you who are users of our cloud services, you may have been introduced to Health Connect Cloud. One topic within that cloud service that can be a little tricky is understanding how GitLab and the source control workflow fit seamlessly into your integration workflow in Health Connect Cloud. I recently presented a lightboard video explaining how this works, including the slightly different workflows for building interfaces via code versus building via the Management Portal UI. If you use Health Connect Cloud, let me know if this is helpful or if you have questions!

Hi Community,

Watch this video to learn how to leverage embedded (server-side) source control in a build pipeline using the git- source-control package and other additional tools:

The VS Code extension for Deltanji source control has been updated to version 1.2.3. View the change log here for a full list of updates: https://bit.ly/3PqMJ26

Users can now benefit from the VS Code Quick Diff feature when using the ObjectScript extension. To use this feature just click on the gutter decorations to reveal an inline diff experience, where you can contribute contextual commands. You just need to provide VS Code with the original contes of any given file.

We have some custom tools that do project based deployment from environment to environment. In VS Code, we're struggling to find the best way to export PRJ files that contain the contents of a project the way we were able to in Studio. We can edit existing projects, and in server side editing we can create projects, but we can't seem to extract the project files (Not the classes, the wrapper) to store in our source control solution for deployment purposes.

Deltanji 7.1 is now available.

Key updates include: 

* Interoperability Production component driver included, for customers who have purchased the add-on. You can watch a short demo of it here.
* Implement multi-select delete of objects and components
* Add setting to give a passable Beyond Compare launch command line
* Support simplified Locations & Routes diagram 

For more information, read the release notes here >> https://bit.ly/3mHyJHc

Please get in touch with support@georgejames.com for your release kit. 

The update is also available for Serenji debugger users on VS Code, which has the Deltanji solo edition embedded. Simply update the Serenji extension to version 3.2.3 or later and load the server-side code.

Git stores complete history - meaning you would never lose your files, even if they are deleted, they are still available. That, however, presents an issue if large or sensitive files have been committed. Deleting them DOES NOT remove them from history. Recently one of the repos I work on became unexpectedly large, so here's how you can resolve that:

Hi Developers!

As you know InterSystems IRIS Interoperability solutions contain different elements of the solution, such as: production, business rule, business process, data transformation, record mapper. And sometimes we can create and modify these elements with UI tools. And of course we need a handy and robust way to source-control the changes made with UI tools.

For a long time this was a manual (export class, element, global, etc) or cumbersome settings procedure, so the saved time with source-control UI automation was competing with lost time to setup and maintain the settings.

Now the problem doesn't exist any more. With two approaches: package first development and usage of IPM package git-source-control by @Timothy Leavitt

CI/CD with IRIS SQL

In the vast and varied SQL database market, InterSystems IRIS stands out as a platform that goes way beyond just SQL, offering a seamless multimodel experience and supporting a rich set of development paradigms. Especially the advanced Object-Relational engine has helped organizations use the best-fit development approach for each facet of their data-intensive workloads, for example ingesting data through Objects and simultaneously querying it through SQL. Persistent Classes correspond to SQL tables, their properties to table columns and business logic is easily accessed using User-Defined Functions or Stored Procedures. In this article, we'll zoom in on a little bit of the magic just below the surface, and discuss how it may affect your development and deployment practices. This is an area of the product where we have plans to evolve and improve, so please don't hesitate to share your views and experiences using the comments section below.

Hi Developers,

Often we create and edit InterSystems IRIS Interoperability solutions via a set of UI tools that is provided with IRIS. But it is sometimes difficult to setup the development environment to handle changes we make in the UI to source control.

This video illustrates how git-source-control helps with source control Interoperability components while changing it in the UI.

In a healthcare setting we've an Ensemble namespace through which passes a key HL7 feed (the ADT feed from our PAS). It is split up, transformed and passed on to multiple downstream systems. We consider the feed going to each downstream system an interface. Each interface is developed as separately as possible - typically as a separate branch of our git repo (which we access via VS Code).
