#Python

 Hello IRIS Fans and Welcome to IRIS iRacing!

Here were going to take 3 laps of your time and demonstrate how I wired up my Racing SIM to IRIS for "As Real Time as It Gets" Metrics reporting.  I missed the window for the contest, which happens quite often, but I still ended up 3rd I think in the demo race in the video below.

Technical Salad

Below are the technical ingredients for this demonstration for a salad you can post on Instragram.

• Python iRacing SDK ( https://github.com/kutu/pyirsdk/tree/master )
• InterSystems IRIS Community / Python Interop
• Prometheus
• Grafana
• Custom Metric Class

Hi, Community!

🐍Great news—you can now use Python to customize your productions and add custom code!

Using Embedded Python in the BPL and DTL Editors

I combined @Rodolfo Pscheidt https://github.com/RodolfoPscheidtJr/ollama-ai-iris with some files from @Guillaume Rongier https://openexchange.intersystems.com/package/iris-rag-demo.

My own project is https://github.com/oliverwilms/ollama-ai-iris

I can run load_data.py and it connects to IRIS (same container).

When I try to run query_data.py https://github.com/oliverwilms/ollama-ai-iris/blob/main/query_data.py , it cannot connect to ollama:

ConnectionError: Failed to connect to Ollama. Please check that Ollama is downloaded, running and accessible.

The InterSystems IRIS is a great data platform and it is met the current features required by the market. In this article, you see the top 10:

Note: this list was updated because many features are added to IRIS in last 3 years (thanks @Kristina Lauer)

I read the article by @Rodolfo Pscheidt Jr:

https://community.intersystems.com/post/ollama-ai-iris

I forked his app and copied selected files from @Guillaume Rongier iris-rag-demo to make it containerized:

ollama-ai-iris/test_conn.py at 3da62770a90e34eff92241abbfc4f2c2a7027898 · oliverwilms/ollama-ai-iris
 

I struggle to understand what each element is or I do not understand why the code does not work:

url = f"iris://teste:teste@localhost:51774/TESTE"
 

Is teste:teste refer to username / password? I tried _SYSTEM:SYS

Is 51774 webserver port? Is TESTE namespace?

I cloned iris-rag-demo from Open Exchange and issued docker-compose up -d. I went to the front end and type in the chat message:

Who was the 46th President of United States of America?

I got a run time error:

RuntimeError: ERROR <Ens>ErrBPTerminated: Terminating BP ChatProcess # due to error: ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <PYTHON EXCEPTION> *<class 'RuntimeError'>: <PYTHON EXCEPTION> <class 'ValueError' > ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <PYTHON EXCEPTION> *<class 'RuntimeError'

I know that people who are completely new to VS Code, Git, Docker, FHIR, and other tools can sometimes struggle with setting up the environment. So I decided to write an article that walks through the entire setup process step by step to make it easier to get started.

I’d really appreciate it if you could leave a comment at the end - let me know if the instructions were clear, if anything was missing, or if there’s anything else you'd find helpful.

The setup includes:

Hello Community,

I got the PROTECT error while running functions. But, I could able to call the classmethods and methods in class definition with classMethodObject, classMethodValue etc.. from python. without any errors
python code

irispy.functionString('fnString','IRISPython',14)
irispy.function('fnString','IRISPython',14)

raise RuntimeError(error_message)
RuntimeError: <PROTECT> *Function not allowed

IRISPython.mac
fnString(fn1) public {
  quit"Hello "_fn1
}

An experiment on how to use the LangChain framework, IRIS Vector Search, and LLMs to generate IRIS-compatible SQL from user prompts.

This article was based in this notebook. You can run it with a ready to use environment with this application in OpenExchange.

Setup

First, we need to install the necessary libraries:

!pip install --upgrade --quiet langchain langchain-openai langchain-iris pandas

Next, we import the required modules and set up the environment:

Hello Team,

I got xDBC protocol is not compatible while executing python script. How to fix this error

C:\Users\ak\Desktop\lpyth\iris>C:/Users/ak/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python312/python.exe c:/Users/ak/Desktop/lpyth/iris/irisconn.py
An error occurred: connection failed: IRIS xDBC protocol is not compatible

py -m pip list
Package            Version
------------------ ---------
intersystems-iris  3.9.2

I'm exploring this right now: given a bunch of types defined as Pydantic models, how can I come up with an equivalent %RegisteredObject/%SerialObject and convert to/from (e.g., to support persistence and match validation as much as possible)?

People who know Python better than I do (e.g., your average undergraduate from this decade): is this a stupid idea or a cool idea? Has anyone else done this before?

You can learn a lot from a first impression; we want to hear about yours.

As a continuation of our User Insights Interview program (see this post for more details), we’re expanding our scope to include Python developers, particularly those of you who are new to working with InterSystems technology. We’re looking to conduct one-on-one interviews to hear your honest thoughts about getting started: What made sense, what didn’t, and where we could improve.

I'm a huge sci-fi fan, but while I'm fully onboard the Star Wars train (apologies to my fellow Trekkies!), but I've always appreciated the classic episodes of Star Trek from my childhood. The diverse crew of the USS Enterprise, each masterminding their unique roles, is a perfect metaphor for understanding AI agents and their power in projects like Facilis. So, let's embark on an intergalactic mission, leveraging AI as our ship's crew and  boldly go where no man has gone before!  This teamwork concept is a wonderful analogy to illustrate how AI agents work and how we use them in our DC-Facilis

DP-439207 - AIX JSON Unicode Parsing Issue

Hi Community,
In this article, I will introduce my application iris-AgenticAI .

Hello interface engineers and app developers,     

Did you know that you can use Python in productions or integrations?

The production configuration user interface is low-code, but in many projects, you may reach a point where you need to write some code. As discussed in the Integration Architecture course, business processes are full of places for inserting code, specifically the BPL editor (for BPL business processes) and the DTL editor (for data transformations).

Hi all.

I'm trying to create an indexed table with an vector field so I can search by the vector value.
I've been investigating and found that to get the vector value based on the text (token), use a Python method like the following:

In this article I will be discussing the use of an alternative LLM for generative IA. OpenIA is commonly used, in this article I will show you how to use it and the advantages of using Ollama

In the generative AI usage model that we are used to, we have the following flow:

• we take texts from a data source (a file, for example) and embedding that text into vectors
• we store the vectors in an IRIS database.
• we call an LLM (Large Language Model) that accesses these vectors as context to generate responses in human language.

InterSystems has been at the forefront of database technology since its inception, pioneering innovations that consistently outperform competitors like Oracle, IBM, and Microsoft. By focusing on an efficient kernel design and embracing a no-compromise approach to data performance, InterSystems has carved out a niche in mission-critical applications, ensuring reliability, speed, and scalability.

A History of Technical Excellence

After so many years of waiting, we finally got an official driver available on Pypi

Additionally, found JDBC driver finally available on Maven already for 3 months,  and .Net driver on Nuget more than a month.

 As an author of so many implementations of IRIS support for various Python libraries, I wanted to check it. Implementation of DB-API means that it should be replaceable and at least functions defined in the standard. The only difference should be in SQL.

Introduction

As the health interoperability landscape expands to include data exchange across on-premise as well as hosted solutions, we are seeing an increased need to integrate with services such as cloud storage. One of the most prolifically used and well supported tools is the NoSQL database DynamoDB (Dynamo), provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Using SQL Gateway with Python, Vector Search, and Interoperability in InterSystems Iris

Part 3 – REST and Interoperability

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?

Introduction

To achieve optimized AI performance, robust explainability, adaptability, and efficiency in healthcare solutions, InterSystems IRIS serves as the core foundation for a project within the x-rAI multi-agentic framework. This article provides an in-depth look at how InterSystems IRIS empowers the development of a real-time health data analytics platform, enabling advanced analytics and actionable insights. The solution leverages the strengths of InterSystems IRIS, including dynamic SQL, native vector search capabilities, distributed caching (ECP), and FHIR interoperability. This innovative approach directly aligns with the contest themes of "Using Dynamic SQL & Embedded SQL," "GenAI, Vector Search," and "FHIR, EHR," showcasing a practical application of InterSystems IRIS in a critical healthcare context.

Hey, community! 👋

We are a team of Stanford students applying technology to make sense of climate action. AI excites us because we know we can quickly analyze huge amounts of text.

As we require more reports on sustainability, such as responsibility reports and financial statements, it can be challenging to cut through the noise of aspirations and get to the real action: what are companies doing

That’s why we built a tool to match companies with climate actions scraped from company sustainability reports.

Using embedded Python while building your InterSystems-based solution can add very powerful and deep capabilities to your toolbox.

I'd like to share one sample use-case I encountered - enabling a CDC (Change Data Capture) for a mongoDB Collection - capturing those changes, digesting them through an Interoperability flow, and eventually updating an EMR via a REST API.

In the world of APIs, REST is very extended. But what happens when you need more flexibility in your data-fetching strategies? For instance letting the client to choose what fields is going to receive. Enter GraphQL, a query language for your APIs that provides a flexible alternative to REST.

In this post, we will:

• Compare REST and GraphQL.
• Dive into the basics of GraphQL: Queries, Mutations, and HTTP.
• Build a simple GraphQL server implementation using Graphene, SQLAlchemy, and Flask over data in InterSystems IRIS.
• Explore how to deploy your GraphQL server as a WSGI application in IRIS.

I have a flask application, its working locally. I also have a iris for health 2024.3 docker container front-ended with the iris nginx container.

I can configure the WSGI application with iris for health, give it a "url" (/flask or /csp/flask) but I cannot access the flask application. It looks like the url is not found within the nginx configuration. Is there any documentation or suggestion for configuration/enabling a flask app with a IRIS container front ended with the nginx container (provided by intersystems container registry)
