Assuming  you're on 2016.2+:

set payload = "{""profile_id"":""9XOzzcI8NfSUjxAhEt0cTLRejwmp6HPi"",""biometrics"":[{""timestamp"":""2017-05-17T13:45:40"",""utc_offset"":""+02:00"",""resting_heartrate"":120.0,""spo2"":98.0,""activity_id"":""591c540aac8f295479ee14ce""}]}"
set obj = {}.%FromJSON(payload)
write obj."profile_id"
>9XOzzcI8NfSUjxAhEt0cTLRejwmp6HPi
write obj.biometrics.%Get(0).timestamp
>2017-05-17T13:45:40

 Here's how:

  1. SMP > Ensemble > Production Configuration > Your Business Service > Settings > Additional Settings > Schedule > Press on the the looking glass
  2. In Schedule Spec Editor press "New"
  3. Specify Schedule name and press OK
  4. Set "Raw String" schedule or use "Add action" specify a schedule
  5. Press "Save spec"
  6. Schedule setting in your Business Service should be set now
  7. Restart your Business Service

Provided you have this csv:

car,2000,100.51,27.10.2016,
phone,2003,65.8,15.01.2017,

You can import it into class Test.CSV:

1. Generate a persistent class Test.CSV

set rowtype = "name VARCHAR(50),year INTEGER,amount NUMERIC(9,2),date DATE"
set filename = "D:\data.csv"
do ##class(%SQL.Util.Procedures).CSVTOCLASS(2, .rowtype, filename,,,,"Test.CSV")

2. Import file or files

do ##class(Test.CSV).Import(2,filename)

 

Usually you can't import your CSV right away - the dates are in a different format, etc. You need to modify Import method and property definitions. For example I often:

  • Add FORMAT=4 property parameter for dates to import dates in dd/mm/yyyy format.
  • Find&replace Library.
  • Add this else line in Import method:
if $$$ISOK(tStatus) { set tCounter = tCounter + 1 } else { w $System.Status.GetErrorText(tStatus) return}

 

If you have a tab separated file, you need to change Import method signature from:

pDelimiter As %String = ","

to:

pDelimiter As %String = {$c(9)}

Check out Demo.ZenService.Zen.WeatherReportForm class in ENSDEMO namespace. GetWeatherReport method there creates a BS and sends a message to a BP outside of Ensemble context. You need to send an object and not a datatype, so in your example:

Set tSC = tService.ProcessInput(datePurge,.output)

Should be instead:

Set message = ##class(Ens.StringContainer).%New(datePurge)
Set tSC = tService.ProcessInput(message,.output)

If you want to send a message to a BP or BO you can do that too, just create an Ensemble message and use SendSync or SendAsync to send it from BS:

Set message = ##class(Ens.StringContainer).%New(datePurge)
Set targetHostName = "Name of BP or BO"
Set description = "My request description"
// Set timeout = 10 // how long to wait for a Sync call response, skip to wait forever
// Set tSC = tService.SendRequestSync(targetHostName, message, .response, timeout, description)
Set tSC = tService.SendRequestAsync(targetHostName, message, description)

That said, Ensemble hosts can run on schedule so you can use built-in Ensemble scheduler and not a system task manager.

> Would you have three branches for the code or 3 repo's.
Please describe differences between your DEV, TEST, PROD code. Still, I'd probably recommend one repo and 3 branches.

>Would you have three projects in Atelier to communicate with the environments and GitHub?
No, there would be one Atelier project for DEV. All other code propagation should be done automatically by Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery solution.

That may mean one of the several things:

  • You're not specifying or specifyiong incorrectly one or several request header parameters. One of the most often encountered errors is not specifying ContentType as application/json.
  • Request content is formed incorrectly

Anyway, to solve this problem you need to make a correct request to the target system, record it and compare to the Ensemble request. Here's an article on that.
