#Terminal

Hello community!

I am trying to set up Startup Tag^Routine field for the UnknownUser as follows:

And my simple routine is the next:

Hello all,

I know it is perhaps too vague question, but anyway:

Do you have experience from running a thick (preferably .NET) application in any of these modes - client installed locally, Terminal Server, Citrix ? Say, there are around 300-400 concurrent users using application.

Can you share your observations / opinions?

Thank you!

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?

Hello,

I need to run some clean up routine in the background so loss of my terminal session won't stop the process.

I found the JOB command in the documentation.
JOB | ObjectScript Reference | InterSystems IRIS Data Platform 2022.1

When I try it, it doesn't seem to be doing much. I also expected this to become visible in the Background Tasks but that doesn't happen either.

Probably I am missing something.

As stated in title, I want to log everything I type/get in the terminal to a log file, is there a setting like this somewhere?

Preferably I'd like to enable it once and that's it.

Hello Community,

Is there any way to permanently clear all the commands displayed in the line recall History. The :clear deletes all the commands in that particular process/recall buffer.

Thanks!

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

in WebTerminal:

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

Hi Devs!

Recently I was impressed by @Daniel.Pasco's article where he shares also how he uses terminal aliases.

Terminal aliases is a very powerful tool for developers and sys admins if you often need to call some cumbersome terminal expressions and make it shorter and cleaner. Here is the documentation.
Yes!

But what about Docker environments? What if you are fan of Docker dev environments but also want to keep using your favorite aliases with Docker as well?

Turned out it is very possible.

Hey Community,

Watch this video to learn how to use terminal aliases for InterSystems IRIS and also how to set it up with your Docker Developer Environment:

How could I log out from Cache terminal (connected through csession) and back to the system shell?

Thanks.

Let's say I want to execute this cache script (saved as test.txt) from OS terminal:

zn "USER"
write 1
zn "%SYS"
write 2
halt

Executing the following command in a terminal:

csession cache < test.txt

Would yield this output:

$ csession cache < script.txt

Node: gitlab-test, Instance: CACHE

USER>

USER>
1
USER>

%SYS>
2
%SYS>
Job succeeded

Is there a better way to run these scripts?

Currently I have two problems:

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

For my Embedded Python ONLY demo package I need some user input.
Similar to ObjectScript

read "say somthing",reply

I use the Python equivalent

reply = input("say something")

And this works excellent without problems from Terminal or Doker console

BAD SURPRISE:
with WebTermnial ObjectSscript works fine, but embedded Python fails badly.

For reasons that I won't go into here, I need to run Cache Terminal in Linux using Wine.

It starts up ok, but when I try to establish a connection to a remote server I get the following error:

Ctermsecure Read Error
Could not obtain terminal server client name.
Reason: (10035, 0x2733) unknown error

If I launch CTerm.exe from a command line then I get the following:
