Bulk adding with "add" in client
by Robert Crews 19 Dec '17

19 Dec '17

With a database created and opened, I can recursively bulk add the all the *.xml files in a directory called /opt/sources With this command > add /opt/sources http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Commands#ADD In the GUI, I can change the pattern to, for example, "*.dita*", to load all the *.dita and *.ditamap files instead of the *.xml files. Is there a way I can define a glob pattern for bulk loads using the add command or some other command from the client? Thanks, Robert

TLS 1.2
by Marco Lettere 18 Dec '17

18 Dec '17

Hi list, I need to perform an integration with a service that talks HTTP over TLS 1.2. I have the mutual certificates and all the rest. My idea was to do as less as possible (mostly handshaking) in Java and then use the Java call the code from inside XQuery where all the rest happens. Just wanted to be sure that there isn't a way to do everything in XQuery. Is it? Thanks, Marco.

queries and setting on temp directory
by Stefania Axo 18 Dec '17

18 Dec '17

Hi all, i noticed that queries (http://localhost:8984/dba/queries) and the dba setting are saved in the temp directory and not on the \basex\data dir. For example: - C:\Users\IBM_ADMIN\AppData\Local\Temp\dba\ if BaseX is installed from the zip file in Wndows Os - C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\Liberty\usr\servers\myApp\temp\dba if BaseX is installed as BaseX.war on WebSphere Liberty in Windows OS All the other data seems to be under the home basex\data directory: logs, databases, users. Is that a reason for that? thanks Stefania

XQuery 3.1/Build array of maps dynamically
by Hondros, Constantine (ELS-AMS) 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Hello all, I want to dynamically build a map where the value is an array of maps. I am having a problem with the syntax. (My use-case is to deliver this as JSON for simple ingestion to Spark, by the way). Here's my test code, which translates cleanly into JSON: declare option output:method 'json'; map { "authors": [ map{"fn":"John", "ln":"Smith"}, map{"fn":"Jane", "ln":"Doe"} ] } However, when I try to build the same map dynamically, I get the error "Value has more than one item". I guess this is because my for loop is returning a sequence, but I can't figure out the syntax to get it working. Any ideas? declare option output:method 'json'; map { "authors": [ (for $b in $authors return (: just assume $authors is populated ...:) map{"fn":$b/*:given-name/text(), "ln":$b/*:surname/text()}) ] } TIA! ________________________________ Elsevier B.V.

Hi, Bat files for reecent builds are not running for me and contain a line like: set CP=%MAIN%\target\classes;%MAIN%\lib\*;%MAIN%\lib\custom\* Looks like a substition is not happening somewhere. I think should be: set CP=%MAIN%\BaseX.jar;%MAIN%\lib\*;%MAIN%\lib\custom\* /Andy

Problem with basexgui and MacOS
by Florian Eckey 06 Dec '17

06 Dec '17

Hi there, i have a problem with using BaseX GUI and MacOS 10.13.1 (or further 10.12.6). When i start the basexgui.sh i get the following error: „Failed to initialize native Mac OS X interface“ I tried it with the versions 8.6.6 and 8.6.7 unsuccessful. Stack-Trace: WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred WARNING: Illegal reflective access by org.basex.gui.GUIMacOSX (file:/Users/florianeckey/Daten/Privat/basex/BaseX.jar) to method com.apple.eawt.Application.getApplication() WARNING: Please consider reporting this to the maintainers of org.basex.gui.GUIMacOSX WARNING: Use --illegal-access=warn to enable warnings of further illegal reflective access operations WARNING: All illegal access operations will be denied in a future release Failed to initialize native Mac OS X interface Unfortunally it is a very global exception from BaseX. Does anyone else have this problem and solved it? Best Florian

Scripting and modules
by Kristian Kankainen 02 Dec '17

02 Dec '17

Hello, I need to run several updating queries in sequel on a database and a good candidate for this should be a simple .bxs script. But is there a convenient way to reference functions defined in an external module? I have all functions defined in an external XQuery module and I would like to be able to write the script in such a way, that I use just the names of the allready defined functions. E.g something like this: # script.bxs # open the database OPEN testdb; # make backup of the initial state CREATE BACKUP init; # run all updating queries XQUERY updateFunctionA(); XQUERY updateFunctionB(); # etc ... # make a backup of the final state CREATE BACKUP final; I guess I can recap my question with just the following: what would be the most convenient way for me to organize this kind of automation of running allready defined module functions? Thank you, Kristian K
