Here is another quick note before we move on to GPT-4 assisted automation journey. Below are some "little" helps ChatGPT had already been offering, here and there, during daily works.
And what could be the perceived gaps, risks and traps to LLMs assisted automation, if you happen to explore this path too. I'd also love to hear anyone's use cases and experiences on this front too.
I recently moved to a Mac M2. I was already using VSCode on my intel-based Mac, and used the plug "objectscriptQuality for VSCode". It installs nicely, but it does not seem to do anything, not even an error. I installed the same java version (but ARM based) as on my old machine so that prerequisite is met. Also set the path to java in VSCode.
Any clues/has anyone got this working on a Mac based on Apple silicon M1/M2 chips?
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 this article I would like to review those VS Code extensions which I use myself to work with InterSystems and which make my work much more convenient. I am sure this article will be useful for those who are just starting their journey to learn InterSystems technologies. However, I also hope that this article could be useful for experienced developers with many years of experience and open up new possibilities for them when using VS Code for development.
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).
For my recent tutorial, I used %Query Wizard of Studio.
Could any of the VSCode experts please show me how to generate
Query Statement with input parameters, CONTAINID , ROWSPEC and the required class methods - <queryname>Execute() - <queryname>Fetch() - <queryname>Close()
I'm pleased to announce version 2.6.0 of the VS Code ObjectScript extension, containing a number of enhancements that make a developer's life easier. Some highlights are described below. As always, find the full list of modifications in the CHANGELOG, including many bug and vulnerability fixes.
InterSystems has also released IRIS as containerized deployments. This post is to demonstrate how InterSystems IRIS and applications those rely on IRIS a backend can be packaged into an image and be run in other machines in containers and how simple it is to do that.
A container runs image/s which have all the necessary executables, binary code, libraries, and configuration files. And the images can be moved from one machine to another, and an images repository like Docker Hub can simplify that process.
I have used an application from Open Exchange for this demo.
A very common problem of our users is to use an external database as data source in an IRIS production. As many of you already know, we have two ways to connect directly to an external database, the first one is using an ODBC connection, the second is using JDBC.
In our example we are going to create a connection using JDBC, and we are going to build a simple Docker's project, in this way you will be able to modify the example as you wish.
Suppose I created a new DeepSee class to display a new item in the dashboard.
DeepSee.Component.datePick
Wich, in general, is just a copy of a similar class in %ZEN with minor changes. I need to include it in the base install. How can i do this? Am I ever allowed to change the composition of system classes?
For those of you who still use the Studio IDE for ObjectScript programming and are going through the process of migrating to VS Code, did you know there's a section in the VS Code documentation just for you? Have a look at the Migrating from Studio chapter. It covers:
How would one jump to a particular line by typing a tag and adding an offset in VS Code (zMethodName + n)? I know this can be done in Studio and would be particularly helpful for debugging error messages.
I am trying to adjust my VSCode settings.json to make my repository to Server Side Source Control. When Adding "uri" to the settings.json to change the setting but VSCode is telling me that the Property uri is not allowed.
Strap on this jetpack to boost your developer experience in Visual Studio Code.
DX Jetpack for VS Code was my entry for the 2023 Developer Tools Contest, where it achieved 2nd place in the Experts vote and 5th place in the Community vote. It is an extension pack for VS Code, bundling three entirely new extensions created by me, plus a couple that we at George James Software published previously.
If you're reluctant to install DX Jetpack right away, why not try it using a dev container? In the dev container is an InterSystems IRIS Community environment augmented with InterSystems Package Manager (IPM) and the isc-codetidy package.
In our latest episode of Data Points, I had a conversation with George James, CEO of George James Software, about the importance of source control and developer tools, George James Software's own solutions, and their partnership with InterSystems. Take a listen, and visit https://georgejames.com to learn more about George James Software!

When I try to debug using the docker image intersystemsdc/iris-community it is failing. If I change to intersystemsdc/iris-community:2022.3.0.555.0-zpm, I have success.
Sorry, change to: intersystemsdc/iris-community:2022.1.0.209.0-zpm
Hi Community, Let's meet virtually at our first Community Roundtable in 2023! Join the discussion on best practices for developing in VS Code/Studio, use cases, and Q&A. 📅 Date: January 26 🕑 Time: 9:00 am ET | 3:00 pm CET
UPDATE: the roundtable recording is available here.
In studio you go open and just type the class name and it opens up the class.
In VS Code need to know the full path, is there a quick way? It is probably the one thing preventing from using VSCode full time (apart from not seeing the .luts or csp files)
Hi. This is my first post on this forum; I've tried to open an issue on the official repo , but it seems inactive from more than a year, so I can't receive an answer from there. I would like to know if someone use that extension and know how to use it when working server-side on an IRIS server. I have no problem when coding on a file saved locally. Thanks in advance
I am currently trying to better my development process by using Visual Studio Code because I'm more familiar and comfortable with it than Studio.
I've followed the guide here, but I'm still having issues. I initially didn't have the Web Socket protocol allowed on my Web Gateway server, but I enabled that and restarted the server with no luck.
When I'm writing code in Intersystems Studio code completion is different than in VS Code. It would be greate if VS Code would react the same way on code completion .. This happens is studio
When I do this in VS Code it doesn't show the object but it shows ?? all possible items ??
