Content-Encoding: gzip on incoming RESTXQ POST
by James Ball 08 Nov '21

08 Nov '21

Hello, I have a RESTXQ function that receives an XML file via HTTP POST. This works perfectly. The client would now like to compress the data with gzip and set the Content-Encoding: gzip header. I set GZIP = true in my .basex file based on the documentation [1] But these gzipped post requests fail - my function is called but content seems to arrive at my function still compressed. (Responses from the server become compressed dynamically as expected - and that works great). Is there something else I need to do to make it work for requests? Many thanks, James [1] https://docs.basex.org/wiki/Options#GZIP

specifying the processor for xslt:transform()
by Graydon Saunders 08 Nov '21

08 Nov '21

Hello! I can get xslt:transform() to pick up a licensed saxon if I go into the appropriate script (basexgui, etc.) and add it to the class path there. (but not, oddly, from the environment class path on Linux.) That's going to be annoying as BaseX updates with laudable frequency. Is there some way, particularly in the context of a BXS file or as an option to xslt:transform(), to set which transformer I want to use? I'm hoping to be able to build testing against various transformers so being able to set a specific one on a per-query or per-BXS-environment basis would be extremely helpful. Thanks! Graydon

json serialization : how to ignore new lines and tabs ?
by Maud Ingarao 03 Nov '21

03 Nov '21

Dear all We need to convert some xml data to json to create a nice js visualisation in our webapp The json:serialize works fine, except the fact that it creates empty strings data due to \n, \s and \t We can't find the option(s) to ignore them... And we would like to ignore the namespace attributes as well. Below is an example of the input and output we get with let $docs := <ead>{db:open('rey', 'inventaire-ead.xml')//*:c[.//*:scopecontent[@localtype='Lettre']]}</ead> return json:serialize($docs, map{ 'format': 'jsonml' }) Thanks a lot !

default context item
by Hans-Juergen Rennau 03 Nov '21

03 Nov '21

Dear BaseX people, probably a blackout of mine, but I do not understand the following behaviour. Query: declare context item external := '#none'; . When I call it, specifying a context item using -i or -I, I always get the default context item ('#none'). What do I overlook? Kind regards,Hans-Jürgen
