Hi Community,

This post is a introduction of my openexchange iris-python-apps application. Build by using Embedded Python and Python Flask Web Framework. 
Application also demonstrates some of the Python functionalities like Data Science, Data Plotting, Data Visualization and QR Code generation.

 Features

•  Responsive bootstrap IRIS Dashboard

•  View dashboard details along with interoperability events log and messages.

•  Use of Python plotting from IRIS

•  Use of Jupyter Notebook

•  Introduction to Data Science, Data Plotting and Data Visualization.

•  QR Code generator from python.

Hey Developers, 

In this video, you will learn how to use VS Code with Python: 

⏯ Using VS Code with Python

I have created a package to export a Global into JSON object file and to re-create it by reloading from this file   
embeddedPython refers to the new available technologies. It should be understood as a learning exercise of 
how to handle the language interfaces. Only Global nodes containing data are presented in the generated JSON file.
Differently from the previous example, this one is using embedded Python only, no ObjectScript. Therefore PURE

Hello guys! I need some assistance with these problems I have.

The first one is that I need to execute a Python file, which is at /XY path. This PY is supposed to read an excel file and create a CSV version in /XZ path.

I am quite sure that the PY file is correct, but when using this function I get nothing but this error:

SET tSC = $ZF(-100,"/ASYNC /SHELL ", "python", "/data/InterSystems/IRIS/mgr/TEST01CODE/ExcelReading/ExcelToCSV.py")

ConfigItem 'FJ EXCEL READING' (FJ.BS.ExcelReading) started in job 3164

ERROR #00: (sin descripción de error)

Any ideas or suggestions?

Hi Community,

We are pleased to invite all the developers to the upcoming InterSystems Python Contest Kick-off Webinar! The topic of this webinar is dedicated to the Python contest.

In this webinar, we’ll present two templates to start working with Embedded Python :

1. What is Embedded Python and Jupyter;
2. Embedded Python with Interoperability (PEX hacked to use Embedded Python).

As always, our experts will answer the questions on how to develop, build, and deploy Python solutions using InterSystems IRIS.

Date & Time: Monday, February 7 – 12:00 PM EDT

Hi all - we just released the first episode of Season 2 for our Data Points podcast by Learning Services. This episode features a conversation with @Bob Kuszewski about Embedded Python. If you're a Python developer, or if you're simply interested in the functionality, check it out! For more information, head over to https://datapoints.intersystems.com.

I have seen the Cache Python binding documentation and would like to know if it's also possible with IRIS so I can write data and also read/get it from the DB? The cachesys folder does not contain any python libraries.

From IRIS 2021.2 is possible write Class Methods using the Python Language. I used this new feature to detect persons and objects into images, using ImageAI (https://github.com/OlafenwaMoses/ImageAI). The ImageAI creator defines it as: "An open-source python library built to empower developers to build applications and systems with self-contained Deep Learning and Computer Vision capabilities using simple and few lines of code." In this article you will learn how to apply AI Computer Vision to detect object and persons inside images.

Steps to analyze images using ImageAI

Hi,

What is the Python syntax I can use from a ClassMethod (developed in an IRIS using embedded Python), in order to invoke another class method,

- in the same class; and

- in another class.

I see 'self' is synonymous to use $this (..) in ObjectScript, but these are ClassMethods I am invoking, and self did not seem to work.

thanks - Steve

Did you catch an Experience Lab at the 2021 Virtual Summit? Head over to the InterSystems Learning site to access all four of these hands-on exercises, and get up to speed on:

I'd like to share an example on how the new Embedded Python feature in IRIS helped me in my daily routines.

While I’m participating in the iris-kaggle-socrata-generator project with Henrique Dias, I got to unzip datasets from Kaggle in order to import them.

Such a task was easily achieved by using the zipfile lib in Python (this code was copied from this stackoverflow):

If you develop in IRIS you are confronted with two major phenomena:

• an incredibly fast and excellent designed data storage engine
• a scripting language to work on this storage engine, actually named ObjectScript

⏯ Embedded Python with Interoperability

Welcome to day 3 of Virtual Summit 2021!  We have incredible content available to you this year and I'd just like to bring your attention to the 4(!) sessions that we have on Embedded Python.

Hey Developers, 

Please welcome the first session from the InterSystems Virtual Summit 2021:

⏯ Introduction to Embedded Python

At the recent virtual conference I saw the demonstration on being able to run Python within ObjectScript and run ObjectScript within Python thanks to a feature called Language Bridge.  Is this available now? If so, am I able to install it?  I am currently running HealthShare 2020.1.  I have a little bit of experience using Irisnative with Python but was intrigued with the more seamless-looking features offered by the Language Bridge.

Thanks for any insight.

I have just created a new Global Master Topic, "IRIS Cheatsheets". IRIS has introduced a lot of new functionality, especially in scripting languages, FHIR R4 support, enhanced Interoperability Tools, and IRIS Analytics. Having spent 35 years working on Windows-based PC's and Laptops, I have surprisingly little knowledge of Linux, Docker and Git. Furthermore, I have written almost every application and Interface in ObjectScript with splatterings of SQL, .Net, and Java Gateways and the most basic knowledge of WinSCP, Putty, SSH. All that changed when I received my first Raspberry Pi. I first had

I was looking at the thread of messages on the topic of "Performance when constructing a comma-separated string", and I started writing a response but got distracted, the page refreshed, and I lost my text. I couldn't spend the time rewriting my response, so I started writing this document instead.

Since I saw many posts on Developer Community related to Python, and the very good articles and application written by @Eduard Lebedyuk I was wondering: "As a Object Script developer, why would I want to use an other  language in Object Script? If I ever need to execute something in Object Script, I would do it in Object Script!".

I thought those functionalities to use other languages in Object Script were made only for other languages developers who have to write Object Script code.

Recently I had to parse a huge CSV file : 1.7Gb and more than 5 millions lines.

I did it in Object Script:

⏯ iKnow: Open Source NLP in InterSystems IRIS

Continuing the description of work on the use of the openhl python module in productive mode.

Since the version of iris with Embedded Python, does not yet have a final release, it is already necessary to use it in production now. We decided to back up the service for exporting requests to a xlsx file on a separate server, and save the query result in a global in a separate database.

This database was made networked, local for the service server and remote for the product server. The communication between the prod server and the service was implemented using a rest service.

⏯ Embedded Python: Bring the Python Ecosystem to Your ObjectScript App

Hello I am in My 2nd year of Engineering, and want to learn Python Programing Language, Please suggest to me the best books and best online resources that will help me to learn the python language.

Hey Developers,

We have some good news for you:

💥 InterSystems AI contest participants can use Embedded Python in their solutions! So if you are not yet a member of the Embedded Python Early Access Program (EAP), now is the time! 

Refer to python-interest@intersystems.com and you'll get FREE access to the InterSystems IRIS Embedded Python features.

For a long time, we have been using a utility in production to export the result of a query to an Excel spreadsheet. Moreover, we have applied a modification of it, in which the explicit setting of column formats is a priority.

This utility used the module %SYS.ZENReportExcelExporter and is based on a java program. Every year the report grew and there was not enough java RAM, so we had to increase the value of the environment variable. The value has reached 7gb and now it has become a problem.
