This is a coding example working on IRIS 2020.2 It will not be kept in sync with new versions It is also NOT serviced by InterSystems Support !
The offer of ZPM is growing daily and the short names and
acronyms of the offer are sometimes hard to understand and
also hard to type with my lazy fingers.
Let's say I have this simple script file try.script
write 1 write 0
I can execute it in a terminal (csession) by calling:
csession cache < try.script
And I get the following output:
%SYS> 1 %SYS> 0
However I want to use a try catch block in my script:
try {
write 1/0
catch {}
halt
But as script is executed line by line, it's interpreted like this:

I try to run a small test routine (guessing a random number) in WebTerminal but the result looks broken.

I think it relates to backspace.
Is there some special setting required?

Hi, folks!
Do you know the option/mode when I can feed multiline code into a terminal?
E.g.
for i=1:1:100 {
/// do one line
///do something else}
This is a coding example working on Caché 2018.1.3 and IRIS 2020.2 It will not be kept in synch with new versions It is also NOT serviced by InterSystems Support !
The Command extension enables the execution of Multi-Line Commands from Terminal prompt.
In the default IRISterminal or using PuTTY I have a set of "Routine Commands" available
Running WebTerminal from OpenExchange over HTTPS could be a very secure access method for remote developers.
So I was asked to compare it to other access tools.
It was InterSystems hackathon time and our team, consisting of Artem Viznyuk and me had Arduino board (one) and various parts of it (in overabundance). And so like that our course of action was set - like all other Arduino beginners, we decided to build a weather station. But with data persistent storage in Caché and visualization in DeepSee!
In Cache for Windows (x86-64) 2018.1.3 (Build 414U) I found something very useful
Hi folks!
When I start IRIS in docker every time I do the following:
$ docker-compose up -d --build $ docker-compose exec iris iris session iris USER>zn "NAMESPACEINEED"
Is it possible to have an open terminal command connect to a particular namespace?
Simple problem:
Is there any way to force terminal to the foreground after current command ends?
This is Windows with cterm/iristerm although Putty/Kitty solution would also be nice.
Some weeks ago, I was reading a book by Stephen Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow, The Grand Design. At a certain point, trying to define why do we exist? , why do we use the models we use in physics?, ...those kind of things you know... they pointed at the Game of Life example invented by the mathematician John Coward in 1970... Basically he wanted to show that a system with really basic fundamental laws (Physics) could evolve and "live" to become a more complex system (Chemistry) in which "something" (humans) could work out its own model and complex rules to explain its reality… the rules for this deterministic model that he exposed were so basic that I thought it could be funny to implement them in ObjectScript when I had some spare time... there are others implementations in JavaScript and other languages... but not in ObjectScript... and that had to be corrected!!… so here you are!
Suppose you have developed your own app with InterSystems technologies stack and now want to perform multiple deployments on the customers' side. During the development process you've composed a detailed installation guide for your application, because you need to not only import classes, but also fine-tune the environment according to your needs.
To address this specific task, InterSystems has created a special tool called %Installer. Read on to find out how to use it.
Hi developers!
When @Evgeny Shvarov announced the first InterSystems IRIS Programming Contest, I started looking for new ideas.
I put together a few ideas, and that's what isc-utils is about.
Hi Developers!
Create Database, Namespace, REST Applications using Portal Management is an easy task. You just need a few clicks or maybe more clicks than you expect.
But, what if you traded all those clicks for a simple command-line ?!
IRISAPP>do ##class(diashenrique.Utils.GenerateDB).CreateNewYou just need to answer a few questions:
I just tried to log into our QA server and connect to Terminal (v 2013.1).
I can type in my username but when I attempt to type my password, no characters are typed. When I press ENTER the password is invalid.
I can connect to the management portal and the studio development environment without any problems. Also, I do not have this problem when connecting to the terminal in our production environment (2010).
Does anyone know what can cause this type of problem?
Thanks.
Good Day;
looking at disabling Telnet - on Windows - Cache 2012,2017. The security scans don't need it on network.
But still leave users able to use `Terminal - direct - on the box should be fine.
am posting here for quick refs (as this is a common security vulnerability out there).
Regards;
Anzelem.
First,
Forgive me if this is a rather low-level question - I am a physician informaticist who is learning cache/mumps for the first time. I am sure this probably relates to some setting but I can't find a similar issue anywhere.
When I create a list, and then try and return that list - I get a bunch of symbols back along with my results, or sometimes I just get symbols.
I pasted a screenshot below. Thank is advance for the help!

I was searching for the most simple way to connect from visual studio code to my local instance via terminal without having to change any window.
I know this can also be achieved via telnet but seems a bit overhead if you're in your local machine.
For me the simplest sollution is to open a terminal window in VS Code, navigate to the /bin folder of your instance installation and run .\csession.exe INSTANCENAME
For simplicity you can just include your /bin folder in your path so you don't even need to navigate there
Hello,
I am wondering the best way to disable a user account using this class in Cache (Security.Users).
https://cedocs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/documatic/%25CSP.Documatic.cls
Example User Account = jhipp
Currently is Enabled
I know that we can use the auto-generated EnabledGetStored method, for example:
%SYS> w ##class(Security.Users).EnabledGetStored("jhipp")

How do you cancel a query that is executing in the Management Portal > System > SQL?
Does closing the browser cancel the query or does it continue to run in the background?
Is there any added benefit to using the Shell over the Portal? Perhaps there is a way to cancel/stop a query here?
$SYSTEM.SQL.Shell()
Thanks
Hello!
I am taking the 'Creating an InterSystems Class Definition' course, and the Exercices asks to open a Terminal from the Management Portal to create and interact with a new object. I didn't found how to acces tot the Terminal from the Management Portal, and the documentation I have seen doesn't help me... 
For those experts that can't stop after AoC2019
I have posted some rather old code in traditional style to improve it.
I've been having a blast with the Advent of Code puzzles this year - though I'll be heading into a busy span of time with family soon and will probably drop off toward the end. (At least, that's what always seems to happen - it's a good thing, though!)
Hi all...
I am testing this project:
https://intersystems-community.github.io/webterminal/
Is there any way to be able to record a log of what is done on this terminal?
Does anyone use this in production?
When deploying IRIS in a container, what are recommendations for permitting users terminal access? There is docker exec -it, but that does not work from a user's workstation where - in the old deployment model - they would connect to the server over ssh using Putty and open a terminal session from there.
Are you all ready for something you wish you knew ages ago (or, in my case, a DECADE ago)? Open up a portal in your favorite instance and go to:
System Administration->Configuration->Additional Settings->Startup
Scroll down to "Terminal Prompt" and click 'Edit'. This allows you to edit what you see on your terminal prompt. You can change that to my current setting: 8,3,2
What does this do? It adds your instance name for your prompt. So now your prompt can look like:
DEVELOPMENT:USER>
HI,
I am a newbie so excuse my basic questions.
I have installed Caché on Mac Os High Sierra 10.13.6 and have started the ObjectScript tutorial but I cannot open Terminal in Caché.
The instructions provided on the tutorial don't appear to be for Mac OS as there is no cube icon:
