iris-interoperability-template

This is a template of InterSystems IRIS Interoperability solution. It contains a simple interoperablity solution which reads data from Reddit, filters it and outputs into file or sends via email.

What The Sample Does

This sample has an interoperability production with an inbound Reddit Adapter which is used by a Business Service to read data from Reddit.com. It reads from reddit.com/new/.json every 15 sec. You can alter both the URL and frequency in the service's settings.

The production has a business process with a rule, which filters on news that mentions cats and dogs. The business process then sends this data to a business operation which either saves data to a source folder /output/Dog.txt or /output/Cat.txt.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have git and Docker desktop installed.

Installation: ZPM

Open IRIS Namespace with Interoperability Enabled. Open Terminal and call: USER>zpm "install interoperability-sample"

Installation: Docker

Clone/git pull the repo into any local directory

$ git clone https://github.com/intersystems-community/iris-interoperability-template.git

Open the terminal in this directory and run:

$ docker-compose build

3. Run the IRIS container with your project:

$ docker-compose up -d

How to Run the Sample

Open the production and start it. It will start gathering news from reddit.com/new/ and filter it on cats and dogs into /output/Dog.txt or /output/Cat.txt files.

You can alter the business rule to filter for different words, or to use an email operation to send posts via email.

How to alter the template

Use the green "Use this template" button on Github to copy files into a new repository and build a new IRIS interoperability solution using this one as an example.
