This repository is a mini blueprint of how you can communicate with Python using Python Gateway, a new feature available in InterSystems IRIS Data Platform 2020.3+

This blueprint is contains two containers:

• iris: a basic setup is being made to enter a python gateway as a new object gateway
• python: a basic structure to develop python applications using multi-stage approach to build an application and run it on minimal required footprint. A InterSystems Python Gateway is a new feature which enables you to invoke python created classes within InterSystems objectscript and incorporate it within your application.

Requirements

• Docker
• access to docker hub

How to Run

• Start the containers:

  docker-compose up -d

  docker exec -it iris-pygw-blueprint_iris_1 iris session IRIS

• run the following code to test it

  zn "PYTHON"

  set st = ##class(abc.python).connectToGateway("pogs",.GW)

  set person = ##class(%Net.Remote.Object).%New(GW,"PersonDemo.Person")

  write !,"Default values: ",person.displayPerson()
