Yes. Great that ideas never die, and your implementation in IRIS is vivid evidence!

Sure, you can interpret Intersystems IRIS in any way it works for your application, but in this contest, we want to focus on REST API on Intersystems IRIS side. That means you either use any internal 6 api (Atelier, UIMA, iKnow, DocDB, MGMNT, BI, Monitoring) or any installed from Open Exchange or build your own with Swagger and/or ObjectScript.

The competition allows using REST API on the Intersystems IRIS side.

If QEWD/Node.js + browser UI does this, then go ahead.

Hi Rob!

We provided more details for the contest - and indeed you can avoid using ObjectScript in the contest!
You can use already existing! 

E.g. are extremely in need of the Frontend for the Forms 2.0, something line Vue, or react would be great!

Or you can use any out-of-the-box IRIS REST API.

Oh, sorry about that! Here is the valid string:

docker run --name my-iris --publish 9092:52773 -d intersystemsdc/iris-community:2020.1.0.209.0-zpm

and then 

$ docker exec -it my-iris iris session IRIS

and to run zpm:

USER>zpm

zpm:USER>search

Hi Muni!

While it's being repaired you can use IRIS CE build with ZPM inside:

docker pull intersystemsdc/iris-community

David!

Could you please update the links to the OEX application? I guess the name was changed?

Evgeny Shvarov · Apr 10, 2020 go to post

I updated my reply. Yes, ObjectScript is needed in this contest to implement REST API business logic.

Hi Rob! 

The official name of the language is InterSystems ObjectScript or just ObjectScript - it's not only for Caché any more ;) 

And if so, why can't other languages be used instead?

Every contest has a topic. First one was about ObjectScript CLI. The current is about Intersystems IRIS REST API or web sockets interface. There is no ObjectScript requirement in this particular contest directly but it's obviously involved. Because if you even generate the REST API using spec-first approach you get endpoints but you need ObjectScript to write the logic. See examples in the article from @Eduard Lebedyuk  or another from @David.Reche.

And next month we are having a Native API contest where applications using python, node.js, .NET, java are very welcome.
