MatLab linspace function written in C++

relevant Matlab code can be found in ...\toolbox\matlab\elmat\linspace.m This function generates N points between min and max. vector<double> linspace(double min, double max, int n) { vector<double> result; // vector iterator int iterator = 0; for (int i = 0; i <= n-2; i++) { double temp = min + i*(max-min)/(floor((double)n) - 1); result.insert(result.begin() + iterator,…

IFS Authentication flow with OAuth and OpenID Connect

In my previous article I wrote about Capturing IFS Aurena requests using Postman which is a shortcut method for calling IFS main cluster resources which requires OAuth2 and OpenID Connect authentication. I thought of getting little deep dive this time and try out how we can create a successful request to IFS with OAuth authentication. What this post is about… What is OAuth and how it’s used in…

My first blog on Azure. Quick walk through to set up Azure Monitor with custom logs to build a DIY monitoring solution for on-premise application #Azure #AzureMonitor #APM #LogAnalytics #AzureFree #AzureAgent

Year 2020 impacted in many aspects of our lives both positive and negative ways. One good thing about this year for me was that I was pushed back to study something new due to WFH situation and to get the maximum out of the free time, resources and exam discounts. As a result, I started to polish my ad-hoc knowledge of cloud computing and dig little deeper into it. As far of now, I was able to…

Working with Java Transformers in IFS

One major challenge in integrations is that data formats vary among different systems. In order to successfully connect multiple systems, it is essential to have a method of translating the data types and formats between the systems.

Transformer is the component in IFS integration framework which plays this essential role of translating source document to target document format. They can be…

Capturing IFS Aurena requests using Postman

Invoking IFS Aurena projections from 3rd part tools like Postman has been a challenge so far and my current finding so far is that calling a projection requires session cookies and it does not work with OAuth2 token.

I was searching for alternate ways of invoking IFS Auera calls and found that the Postman Interceptoris really cool tool and you can invoke all IFS Aurena invokes without any…

Include additional attachments in IFS e-mail report

One of our customers came up with a bit of a challenging requirement. Upon emailing a report to their clients, they need to attach documents connected to that record instance along with the mail. To attach a file in the event mail, you need to either have it as a binary object or the file must exist in the application server.

Requirement in detail:

Customer wants to attach documents…

Deploying WSO2 Micro Integrator on Oracle Cloud

Oracle Cloud is among the top in Enterprise Public Cloud platforms and unlike other cloud vendors, it’s Always Free tier offers services to deploy complete application stack.

I have not tried it until recently Oracle offered free training and certification on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure exams. It was a really worthy set of courses and it’s the first time for me to have the overall…

This post is a reply to the IFS forum discussion which questioned about SMS integration with IFS. I did a simple POC for this and surprisingly it worked so I thought it will be a good post to return to my blog after some time.

Clickatellis world leading SMS platform and supported in many countries and it has a very easy to use REST/HTTP API to send the messages. This guide is based on…

Build a personal assistant bot with #integromat and #Chatfuel

The Story behind…

I’m a Technical consultant by profession and integrations has been my passion for several years now. It’s amazing to see how fast the integration industry is evolving and today, building a complex integration does not need any coding experience and you can connect basically anything if you have the right tools. Integromat is a nicely designed integration platform which has…

Build a RESTful API for IFS with WSO2 and knak.it connector

I have tried several different integration tools like Mulesoft, Azure Service Bus and and some native coding with IFS but nothing worked as good (and free) as WSO2 Enterprise Integrator so far. It’s a complete Integration tool kit with tons of features so you can basically integrate IFS with anything with right combination of configuration and most possibly ZERO lines of coding!
