>>> import sqlalchemy

>>> iris_container = IRISContainer("intersystemsdc/iris-community:latest")
>>> with iris_container as iris:
...     engine = sqlalchemy.create_engine(iris.get_connection_url())
...     with engine.begin() as connection:
...         result = connection.execute(sqlalchemy.text("select $zversion"))
...         version, = result.fetchone()
>>> version

The snippet above will spin up a InterSystems IRIS database in a container. The get_connection_url() convenience method returns a sqlalchemy compatible url we use to connect to the database and retrieve the database version.
