#VSCode

Hi,

I am using VSCode together with IRIS 2021.1.
When using Shift+Alt+F to reformat a class file, it pops up with the below message. When I select install formatter, it routes me to the extensions page, where it shows the extensions as being installed. Any advice will be appreciated.

let there be less <UNDEFINED> or <SUBSCRIPT> Errors in my life.

In my previous post I described how to install the pre-release of the Server Manager 3 extension and benefit from enhanced security for your stored credentials.

Now by upgrading to the latest release (1.2.7) of the InterSystems Language Server and opting in to the 1.3 pre-release of the ObjectScript extension you get the additional reassurance of being notified whenever either of those extensions try to access stored credentials for the first time.

Server Manager 3.0 Preview, my entry for the InterSystems Security Contest, is now making use of a cool new feature of Visual Studio Code version 1.63 - support for pre-release extensions.

As I write this 1.63 hasn't yet shipped (it's expected out next Thursday), but you can already get your hands on it by installing the VS Code Insiders build. Once you've done that and launched it, use the Extension view to search for 'servermanager' and you'll see this:

In the screenshot above I was using a 1.63.0-insider build, but 1.63 has now shipped.

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.

I would like to watch a webseminar about debug objectscript techniques into vscode to rest api, productions and embedded python, specially using docker instances and remote servers.

The InterSystems Server Manager extension for Visual Studio Code lets you define connections to your servers, list their namespaces and edit or view code there. You can also launch Portal for a server.

Hi, I have VSCode on my Windows 10 notebook with intersystems-community.objectscript-pack installed. I'm successfully connected to remote IRIS (2021.1). I can export classes, change them, save and import back to IRIS. 

But every time VSCode starts, the message "Request initialize failed with message: Dynamic Linking Error: Win32 error 126" is displayed and InterSystems Language Server does not start.

Has anyone solved this problem yet?

I programmed some server command by my own. That server commands worked fine for a long time.

Suddonly I received 

Studio Action "Attempted Edit" not supported on 127.0.0.1:57772[CTAE01]

by using one of my server commands.

There is an explanation:

Error running command vscode-objectscript.serverCommands.contextOther: Running the contributed command: 'vscode-objectscript.serverCommands.contextOther' failed.. This is likely caused by the extension that contributes vscode-objectscript.serverCommands.contextOther.

Can you help me to solve that issue?

Hello programmers !!
I'm learning COS and Ensemble and also I started to work with this technology and I did set up vscode to program,
but I don't know how to set up the vscode terminal for COS.
Could anyone help me?
I'm a beginner with this technology

Intersystems recently announced a partnership with unqork. I would like to know if someone already used this tool, or another tool, and how was the experience. Is there within the intersystems ecosystem (partners) any low-code tool that generates COS? Tks

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

Hi,

I've started active use ISC VS Code extensions about a half year ago, seem to be used to use, and started to enjoy them :)

The documentation promises the

• • integration with server-side source control etc

We were happy enough not to use, while used Studio Source Control menu to run some internal code checkup procedures. Is there any functional equivalent for this in VS Code: can I add custom menu items that should be backed with ObjectScript code to be started on server?

I wrote a step by step tutorial in the qewd-howtos repository how you can write state of the art multi-page web apps with Node.js using a QEWD-Up WebSocket/REST api back-end integrated with a mainstream web framework like NuxtJS & Vue.js. In particular with the latest NuxtJS/Vue.js frameworks, writing web applications becomes fun again, allowing you to write your applications very efficiently, hiding all boilerplate code from you.

The tutorial should be very easy to try out on your development machine and consists of two parts:

When start docker in VSCode:

C:\Git\ESKLP2\ESKLP>docker-compose build --no-cache
ERROR: The Compose file '.\docker-compose.yml' is invalid because:
Unsupported config option for services.iris: 'init'

Why? Please, help

GitLab is using the rouge ruby gem, that apparently does not support ObjectScript at the moment. Is there an easy way to add syntax highlighting to GitLab ?

Hi developers,

We're hosting a User Group session for our Deltanji source control and Serenji debugger users on Wednesday, November 3rd at 11-12pm EDT / 3-4pm GMT.

We'll be showcasing some advanced features of Deltanji and Serenji in VS Code with time for a discussion - so feel free to bring along any problems you need help solving or share your feedback on our tools. We'd love to hear your thoughts. 

You can find out more on Eventbrite. 

Everyone is welcome. If you're interested in our tools this is a great chance to hear what others have to say, as well as asking your own questions.

The latest release of Serenji focuses on the debug experience. Not only can you now debug on the spot, no matter where you are or what you're doing, but we've also added some smaller features that will make debugging more straightforward. 

• Run and Debug CodeLenses - clickable links above each class method, procedure, subroutine or extrinsic function.
• Intuitive prompting for entrypoints and arguments - when debugging a class method, produce, subroutine or extrinsic function. 
• Shaded read-only background - to clearly differentiate between documents which are editable and those that are read-only. 
• Program output in debug console - output is shown in the debug console. 
• Serenji commands on Server Manager's namespace trees - allowing you to launch Serenji through Server Manager. 

Find out more in our release notes here. 

This training course is addressed to beginners who would like to discover the IRIS Interoperability framework. We will be using Docker and VSCode.

The most recent release of Serenji features our innovative gj::locate technology. It was a standalone tool we originally created for a Developer Community contest earlier this year, but we've incorporated it into our debugger after some great feedback from developers. 

It works by navigating you directly to the source of your server-side errors in just a couple of clicks - enabling you to quickly fix errors without the need to count tedious lines of code... and let's be real, who has got time for that when you're under pressure to fix this bug? 

It's simple and straightforward to use:

1. Click on the gj::locate panel in the status bar

2. Enter the ObjectScript error message or line reference from a class/.mac routine..

3. gj::locate then does the work for you by taking you straight to the corresponding line in your source code.

Easy peasy... and with time to spare to make yourself a coffee before your deadline! 

The video below shows it in action - let us know if you've already given it a go. Or, if you're interested in trying it out we offer a free 30 day trial license, just drop me a message through the Developer Community or email us at info@georgejames.com.

Hi all,

I wonder how to sync my server code to my local code using Visual Studio Code.

Previously, using Atelier, you could open a view of server and can copy the code to the current project, also if I change a BP, I could sync the code because I had a signal that It's warning me that there was a change and it needs to be updated.

I thing i shouls opening the ObjectScript: Explorer and select the code directaly, and right click -> Import and compile current file (Ctrl + F7)

If I use this command, the ouptut window shows:

Hi developers, 

Serenji 3.2.0, the latest version from George James Software, was released last week and our current users have been enjoying trying out the new features (which you can find more about here). 

If you're thinking about trying Serenji for the first time, we've made it easier to get set up by adding a walkthrough on the VS Code Welcome page. It takes you through: 

• Setting up the server components.
• Selecting a server namespace.
• Saving and extending your workspace.
• Requesting a debug license (don't forget we offer a free 30 day trial!) 

We've also added prompts and guidance throughout VS Code to open and add Serenji folders to your workspace and when going to run and debug code. 

This is just one of the ways we've enhanced the Serenji debugger to make straightforward and easy to use - so all you need to do is focus on your code. 

The latest release of Serenji by George James Software introduces zero configuration debugging, so it's ready to go in just one click - no matter where you are or what you're doing, your on-the-spot debugger is ready to go. 

We have introduced a host of new features to enhance the debugging experience so you can focus on identifying and fixing errors, without losing focus by spending time setting up a launch configuration. 

Check out the new features in our release notes. 

If you've already started using Serenji 3.2.0 let us know how you're getting on!

⏯ Hands Off HealthShare Deployment Workflow with GitLab Runners

Gitlab Runners and InterSystems Healthshare Code Deployment and VSCode oh my. More details in this post. 

Hi,

I have created new class in VSCode and upon saving it also saved in Cache DB but when I am deleting from VSCode it is not deleting from Cashe DB. How can I remove both class together?

Thanks

Team,

I am trying to use Visual studio code(1.57) for class development and for compiling classes (intersystems tools extension) . It works.

Now, i would like to use TFVC (Team Foundation Version Control) for source control.  

I can see download option where i can manually download the Namespace as folder and classes as files.

Since whenever i save the file, it directly pushes the change to remote system. I am not sure where the local workspace is.

How to configure VS Code to track my changes and Check In / Check out the code.

Data transformations can be changed in Management portal, but the modifications are not synced with visual studio code. Classes are synced from VSCode to Iris. VSCode can take care of the git repository.

I am curious to know how people are developing data transformations on Iris with VSCode? Are you editing the DT classes with VSCode and forget about the UI? Are you exporting from management portal the files to VSCode directory? Are you using a source control hook?

Thank you
