This is a basic template to develop with InterSystems IRIS
- The template uses InterSystems IRIS Community Edition running in a docker container
- It uses ZPM Package Manager to load InterSystems ObjectScript
- It creates a Namespace IRISAPP without interoperability Enabled
- It is designed to develop with Package First paradigm
start a new dev repository with InterSystems IRIS using this one as a template. Once you clone the new repo on your laptop and open the VSCode with installed InterSystems Pack you'll be able to start development immediately
Make sure you have git and Docker desktop installed.
Clone/git pull the repo into any local directory
$ git clone https://github.com/intersystems-community/intersystems-iris-dev-template.git
Open the terminal in this directory and run:
$ docker-compose build
- Run the IRIS container with your project:
$ docker-compose up -d
Open IRIS terminal:
$ docker-compose exec iris iris session iris -U IRISAPP
IRISAPP>write ##class(dc.sample.ObjectScript).Test()
This repository is ready to code in VSCode with ObjectScript plugin. Install VSCode, Docker and ObjectScript plugin and open the folder in VSCode. Open /src/cls/PackageSample/ObjectScript.cls class and try to make changes - it will be compiled in running IRIS docker container.
Feel free to delete PackageSample folder and place your ObjectScript classes in a form /src/Package/Classname.cls Read more about folder setup for InterSystems ObjectScript
The script in Installer.cls will import everything you place under /src into IRIS.
The simplest dockerfile which starts IRIS and imports code from /src folder into it. Use the related docker-compose.yml to easily setup additional parametes like port number and where you map keys and host folders.
src/iris contains InterSystems IRIS Objectscript code src/java containers Java code src/python - python code, etc.
Settings file to let you immedietly code in VSCode with VSCode ObjectScript plugin)
Config file if you want to debug with VSCode ObjectScript
