Hello,

as it took me some time to figure out what's wrong, I would like to share this experience, so that you do not fall into the same trap.

I've just noticed that if you name your package "code" (all lowercase), in a class using some embedded python using [Language = python], you'll face the <THROW> *%Exception.PythonException <PYTHON EXCEPTION> 246 <class 'ModuleNotFoundError'>: No module named 'code.basics'; 'code' is not a package

I'm proud to announce the new release of iris-pex-embedded-python (v2.3.1) with a new command line interface.

This command line is called iop for Interoperability On Python.

First I would like to present in few words the project the main changes since the version 1.

A breif history of the project

Version 1.0 was a proof of concept to show how the interoperability framework of IRIS can be used with a python first approach while remaining compatible with any existing ObjectScript code.

What does it mean? It means that any python developer can use the IRIS interoperability framework without any knowledge of ObjectScript.

Example :

from grongier.pex import BusinessOperation

class MyBusinessOperation(BusinessOperation):

    def on_message(self, request):
        self.log.info("Received request")

Great, isn't it?

Hello everyone

For those interested, here is an implementation example I used in one of my projects to interoperate with MongoDB using the pymongo package.

iris-mongodb

Interoperates with MongoDB (via pymongo package) with InterSystems IRIS (including outbound adapter)

Remember to import pymongo package.

Hi Community,

Hello,

When setting up a new web app in iris (iris is in a container) iris complains that a WSGI framework is not installed. I have installed python into the container as well as both flask and django via the python virtual environment (see second screenshot) and the python language server is running

Is this the wrong way to install flask? How do I get the container version to recoginize that flask is installed?

Interoperability of systems ensures smooth workflow and management of data in today's connected digital world. InterSystems IRIS extends interoperability a notch higher with its Embedded Python feature, which lets developers seamlessly integrate Python scripts into the IRIS components, like services, operations, and custom functions.

You need to install the application first. If not installed, please refer to the previous article

Application demonstration

After successfully running the iris image vector search application, some data needs to be stored to support image retrieval as it is not initialized in the library.

In the previous article. Practices of class members and their execution within embedded Python. We will now turn our attention to the process of switching namespaces, accessing global variables , traversing and routine executions within embedded Python.

Earlier this year I announced availability of a VS Code extension for coding in ObjectScript, Embedded Python or SQL using the notebook paradigm popularized by Jupyter. Today I published a maintenance release to correct a "getting started" problem.

Here's a video of the installation steps from the extension's README:

Git link: https://github.com/ecelg/InterSystems-IRIS-as-a-Spotify-REST-client

Recently, I come up an idea in my mind that how can I put my playlist on IRIS.🧐

At the same time, I was told to pay for my Spotify subscription💸💸... ooo.. how about to get some data from the Spotify API... so I started to do study about it.

Your Mission

Let's pretend for a moment that you're an international action spy who's dedicated your life to keeping the people of the world safe from danger. You recieve the following mission:

Good day, Agent IRIS,

We're sorry for interrupting your vacation in the Bahamas, but we just received word from our London agent that a "time bomb" is set to detonate in a highly populated area in Los Angeles. Our sources say that the "time bomb" is set to trigger at 3:14 PM this afternoon.

Imagine you’re walking down the street on a nice summer’s day, and someone walks up to you and says “Hey, you work at InterSystems, right? I’ve been hearing more and more about InterSystems IRIS lately. I know IRIS has its own programing language called ObjectBook? or InstaScript? OK, I admit it, I know it’s called ObjectScript! I know IRIS also supports Python. I’m a Python developer, so that sounds great to me. But I’m also interested in ObjectScript. For example, Python and other languages support collections. Does ObjectScript support collections?”

You’d answer “Of course!”

And then your new friend might get excited and start firing off more questions:

• How many kinds of collections does ObjectScript support?
• Can ObjectScript use Python collections?
• Can Python use ObjectScript collections?
• Which collection is best?

How would you answer? Well, you don’t have to worry about answering. All you’d have to do is send your new friend the URL of this long page.

I recently had to refresh my knowledge of the HealthShare EMPI module and since I've been tinkering with IRIS's vector storage and search functionalities for a while I just had to add 1 + 1.

For those of you who are not familiar with EMPI functionality here's a little introduction:

Enterprise Master Patient Index

In general, all EMPIs work in a very similar way, ingesting information, normalizing it and comparing it with the data already present in their system. Well, in the case of HealthShare's EMPI, this process is known as NICE:
