Apply for the hackathon! 

You'd be able to form teams and you'll get our mentors' support during the hackathon along with a set of templates to build on IRIS for Health effectively!

Stay tuned!

Three more topics added:

  • August - Interoperability Adapters for InterSystems IRIS and InterSystems IRIS for Health
  • September - Multi-model solution using InterSystems IRIS
  • October - Interoperability Solution using InterSystems IRIS

The schedule is subject to change, stay tuned!

But these topics will appear! So ask your questions and be prepared!

Hi Gev!

Thanks for sharing! This is a good feature for Studio users, but VSCode ObjectScript has it out of the box.

I'm curious, could you please add the option to export all the IRIS Analytics (DeepSee) artifacts?

Currently, to export Pivots and Dashboards I use the call:

d ##class(dev.code).export("*.DFI")

then to export Termlists, Pivot variables and calculated measures I use:

d ##class(dev.code).exportDeepSeeArtefacts()

And to export Cube class call:

d ##class(dev.code).export("MyCube.CLS")

Is it possible to add a method that will export DFI, artifacts and cubes classes at once?

Maks, thank you for your words, I appreciate! And thanks for the participation in the contest - your entry and video are very bright! 

Speaking about ObjectScript - maybe one day we can set up a contest for "BetterScript" or collaborative project which will include all the "wishes" community introduced during the last 10 years.  And I hope it is possible assuming that fact ObjectScript first compiles into INT script and then into OBJ.

The US reached 100K COVID-19 confirmed.

Eduard, thanks for the comment!

I updated the topic. Now the July contest is expanded to any AI/ML solution with InterSystems IRIS.

Hi Rubens!

I'm glad that you are considering it! ZPM is a very powerful and helpful tool.

  • Is ZPM client compatible with Caché 2017.x versions?

it's not at the moment. But it's an open project, you can add this support if you want. And send the PR then.

  • Can we configure a self-hosted registry that doesn't require a GitHub repository link?

Yes you can. You can setup your own registry - here is how.

You can alter the registry in ZPM client, and create, pack, and publish and then install it from the alternative registry, e.g. your corporate registry.

  • Could the ZPM client zip and upload the whole package (all classes, routines, includes) instead of downloading it from a Github link?

YES. 

  • Can we declare a module that specifies classes themselves instead of their package counterpart? e.g. My.Class.CLS instead of My.PKG.

Sure. See the article and an Example.

Hi, Mike!

I think we have a problem with this badge. Investigating. Thanks for the feedback!

And another way to win - to have clear instructions.

Often fantastic applications with bad instructions can loose to poor applications with perfect instructions.

Please make sure that the instructions you have in your README.md really work.

It is always helpful to try to go through your instruction steps by yourself before releasing the application. Or and ask your colleague to do it.

Good luck!

May I use your solution to check the blocks of the IRIS database which I launch in Docker?

Another thing you may want to add to your OEX and Github README.md - is the Online Contest Github shield!

Here is how it looks like:

Here is the code you can install into your Github README.md

Thanks, Dmitriy!

Analysing database, If you mean this:

docker run -it --rm \        -v /opt/some/database/for/test:/db \        -v pwd/out:/out \        daimor/blocksexplorer:iris generate 1 0 0

so this doesn't look very convenient.

Is it possible for me to install your app on a running container (e.g. with ZPM) and request to check one of the mounted databases? This is a more convenient approach, isn't it?

Evgeny Shvarov · Mar 24, 2020 go to post

This is a very good question, Ed!

Yes, when you launch a vanilla IRIS CE on docker you have USER namespace and database already. 

But what is the web app? is it REST? do you need the web app at all? 

The infrastructure-as-a-code approach, when the namespace, database, web app, security, BI or Interoperability options, etc is being setup via docker/workflow deployment has the following advantages.

1. Clear understanding, what infrastructure is needed for your app to run on the dev/deployment lifecycle

2. You have the control for the infrastructure - you do not expect USER namespace present or have this or that, you simply set up all your app needs.

3. All the changes to infrastructure are in the repo and you track it.

Dmitry!

This is a very beautiful (maybe) but IMHO absolutely useless picture of globals' blocks.

How can I use your program to show the blocks of a particular database I working on now? 

Or a particular global?

Also we will make posts on your applications in DC Social media channels: Twitter, Facebook, DC Telegram,
and LinkedIn. We will do it in the order you submitted the apps: earlier submitted, earlier posted in social media. And will spread it through 5 working days of the week.
