Hi Community,

I want to share with you the lastest app that I have uploaded to the Open Exchange "IrisGoogleChat". 

IrisGoogleChat is a utility for InterSystems IRIS that allows seamless message integration with Google Chat using Cache ObjectScript. This application provides a set of tools to configure Google Chat Channels, create messages powered by moods generated with AI and send them to a Google Chat Channel.

Hello community, first of all, apologies if anyone was offended by the blasphemy 😔

Have you ever thought it would be interesting to have the source code separated from the database data? Perhaps you'd like to be able to back up your code without copying gigabytes of client data.

Below, I'll explain the steps to separate your sea formed by the source code and data into two different databases within a namespace.

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to start an instance of the Community Edition with Docker and I get the following error.

I tried downloading the object-script template directly from OpenExchange, but one of these two things always happens:

1 - It gets stuck starting up forever

Hi Community!

Do you usually work with automated tasks? Then let me share with you a pair of tips ;-)

Tip 1: How to know when my automated task will end (approximately)

Do you have an automated task that is running but you are not sure when it will end and you are at the crossroad of take the decision to stop it or wait and you are not sure if could be better wait for 5 o 10 minutes?

Here you are a tip to check when your task will finish (approximately).

For this example I have created a task with this code:

Hello, I am writing to you because I am receiving a strange error on our Integration server after restoring a Production copy.

On other occasions we had restored the Production copy on this server without problems (in fact it was done weekly)

After restoring the copy when entering the Studio this error appears:

Hello, community!

Ihave been tinkering around with Flutter lately and, as a result, came up with some apps that can use Firebase as a database. When I realized there was an available Python library, I felt the urge to create something for InterSystems IRIS that would communicate with the Firebase RealTime Database and perform CRUD operations. Later, I stumbled upon the following idea from Evgeny in the portal:

That is when  I got down to work!

Are you curious to see my findings? Then buckle up because we’re about to take off!

Hello, How are you doing?

I'm currently developing a proyect in wich I want to use %SYSTEM.Event to process queues. I realized that if a queue has events pending to be sent to the listeners, when I restart the cube the queue with all its events are deleted.

Is there a way to store the queue with their messages in a Global?

I've checked the documentation but I can't find any option for this prupose.

Thank you!

Is there any way to perfom a cyclick redundancy of a "stream" instead of string?

I know exists the method $ZCRC but I think it's only for strings.

Thank you!

Hello, community!

After creating the app IrisApiTester, I saw that it could have more potential, and with some adjustments, it could become a powerful collaborative tool.

I asked myself a few questions::

• Could the API collections be shared with the entire team?
• Could I use it to perform unit tests?
• Is it beneficial for integration tests??
• What will happen if I add a CI/CD continuous integration layer??

Hi Community!,

I've published a new versión of IrisApiTester, I included some new features:

Hello Community!

I'm going to try to explain how to create test for Postman collections for use it with my app IRIS Api Tester.

Yet, What is Newman?:

Newman is a command-line tool that allows you to run Postman collections in an automated and scalable way. By creating tests in Newman, you can ensure the reliability and correctness of your API endpoints. In this article, we will explore how to create tests for Newman in Postman, along with practical examples to help you get started.

Once you have created your Postman Collection:

You're ready to start writing your test scripts:

Hello Community!!

I just upload my lastest application "IRIS Api Tester" to the Open Exchange. 

It's a docker project with InterSystems IRIS + Newman that will allow you to test your Postman Collections in a quick and easy way..

It's ready to work out of the box, you just have to clone the repo: https://github.com/daniel-aguilar-garcia/irisapitester

Run the docker-compose file:

Open this url in your browser: 

http://localhost:52773/csp/user/index.html

Add some test to your Postman collection:

Hi Community!

Have you ever had to connect IRIS to an SAP system?

I had to face the challenge of connecting InterSystems IRIS with SAP, and once again I was able to verify the grant work made by Intersystems related to adding the possibility of executing native Python code inside IRIS.

This feature made the integration very easy thanks to the library pyrfc.

With this library, I was able to make calls to a SAP RFC (Remote Function Call) from an IRIS class and receive data from the SAP’s database. 

Yet, What is a RFC?

One of the reasons why I love Cache and Iris is that not only you can do anything you can imagine, also you can do it in a lot of different ways!!.

Imagine that you have an integration running with IRIS connected by ODBC you probably only run SQL queries but you can also create stored procedures and inside write the code to do everything you can imagine.

I'm going to give you some examples but the limit is your imagination!!

You might wonder, wait!! I don't know how to create a store procedure in IRIS. But this it's not true, you know how to create them but you don't know yet!.

Hi! recently I have to apply api-key validation to a web app with a lot of endpoints and I'm going to tell you how I did it in a centralized way.

I'm going to explain you how we can apply in a generic way (or not) api-key validation to all the endpoints of our web app.

For this feature I take as a template the class Base.cls of this repository iris-rest-api-template

I modified a bit this class to be able to check api-key security. The idea is that in your features you copy this class in your projects and you extend it for your own implementations.

Hi Community!

I want to share with you mi first Open Exchange application.

It's a tool to made our developments easier. It's a micro service in a IRIS docker that help us in our new features giving us a way to add short links in our SMS, Email campaigns and for links of the different stores for our apps.

It's very easy to use it.

Simply clone this repo:

https://github.com/daniel-aguilar-garcia/cos-url-shortener.git

Open the folder in VSCode and start the docker.

After that you can create short link version of any link via api request. For example with Postman:

Hi Developers!!,

I know what you are thinking... a new feature for ZEN.proxyObject...? NOW..???

In Spain we say that better late than never  ;-)

Have you ever need to send a numeric attribue of a Json in String format?

Did you go crazy casting class objects with fixed typed properties?

Lucky you!!

With this new feature I propose a way to continue working with our loved dynamic object %ZEN.proxyObject, being able to choose whether or not we want to send numeric attributes in String format.

You: "That's great!! but come on, stop rambling and explain to me how it works!!!."

How do you get a $ZTIMESTAMP in local time?.

I have found this solution and it works:

Set LocalTimestamp=$ZDATETIMEH($ZTIMESTAMP,-3)

Do you use any better way?

How do you initialise a list of objects of a particular type?

I have tried the following code and I get an undefined when I try to insert.

I can do this and it works but I don't know if it is correct.

Is there any way to do something like this?

Set a= New list of Accciones()

Thank you.

Good afternoon I am making a method of a class that I want to return a list of objects of another class that I have defined, example:

ClassMethod myMethod() As list of MyPackage.MyClass
{
}

But it gives me a syntax error, I try this and it works:

ClassMethod myMethod() As %ListOfObjects
{
}

But I would like to keep the typing.

Is there a way?

Good Morning,

I have this question for a long time. When I make an insert by SQL from an external application in the fields of type %String, if they are empty, it writes the character $c(0) in the global.

Is there a way so that if an Insert is received in a field of type% String with null value instead of the $ c (0) it leaves it empty?:

I have the class defined like this:

Class User.MiClase Extends (% Persistent,% XML.Adaptor)

and the property like this:

Property myProperty As% String;

I have tried creating a trigger or setting default values but it doesn't work.
