Status of BaseX Docker Container?
by Eliot Kimber 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

I'm working toward using BaseX in a Docker container as part of the DITA for Small Teams project (we're trying to set up a system of Docker containers with all the DFST parts integrated out of the box). I notice that Andreas Jung has create a simple container here: https://github.com/zopyx/docker-basex And pushed it to the Docker Hub in the basex namespace. I'm wondering what the relationship of this is, if any, to any official BaseX Docker support? Thanks, Eliot ---- Eliot Kimber, Owner Contrext, LLC http://contrext.com

500 Error when using org.basex.modules.fop.FOP
by Chris Speare 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

I've been working with Apache FOP for converting XML (held on a BaseX instance) to PDF. Currently this involves saving nodes from the BaseX database to pass into a local FopFactory - not ideal. Have tried to pull one of the documents out and get a 500 error, then tried referencing direct files - which also errors: import module namespace fop = 'org.basex.modules.fop.FOP'; let $xml := db:open('billing_run_435')/CommercialDocument[@id="203545"] - if returned does show xml let $xsl := xslt:transform('/home/chris/Downloads/xml/billing_invoice_241040.xml', '/etc/xmlmapper/pdf_invoice.fo') - hard coded for debugging return $xml >From the log: Version: BaseX 8.3.1 Java: Oracle Corporation, 1.7.0_25 OS: Linux, amd64 Stack Trace: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.basex.query.func.xslt.XsltTransform.transform(XsltTransform.java:110) at org.basex.query.func.xslt.XsltTransform.transform(XsltTransform.java:59) at org.basex.query.func.xslt.XsltTransform.item(XsltTransform.java:37) at org.basex.query.expr.ParseExpr.value(ParseExpr.java:64) at org.basex.query.QueryContext.value(QueryContext.java:423) at org.basex.query.expr.gflwor.Let$LetEval.next(Let.java:187) at org.basex.query.expr.gflwor.GFLWOR$1.next(GFLWOR.java:95) at org.basex.query.MainModule$1.next(MainModule.java:114) at org.basex.query.func.StandardFunc.cache(StandardFunc.java:404) at org.basex.query.func.xquery.XQueryEval.eval(XQueryEval.java:129) at org.basex.query.func.xquery.XQueryEval.eval(XQueryEval.java:59) at org.basex.query.func.xquery.XQueryEval.iter(XQueryEval.java:44) at org.basex.query.func.fn.FnSerialize.item(FnSerialize.java:22) at org.basex.query.expr.ParseExpr.iter(ParseExpr.java:43) at org.basex.query.QueryContext.iter(QueryContext.java:412) at org.basex.query.expr.IterMap$1.next(IterMap.java:42) at org.basex.query.MainModule$1.next(MainModule.java:114) at org.basex.query.func.StandardFunc.cache(StandardFunc.java:404) at org.basex.query.func.xquery.XQueryEval.eval(XQueryEval.java:129) at org.basex.query.func.xquery.XQueryEval.eval(XQueryEval.java:59) at org.basex.query.func.xquery.XQueryEval.iter(XQueryEval.java:44) at org.basex.query.expr.TypeCheck.iter(TypeCheck.java:87) at org.basex.query.QueryContext.iter(QueryContext.java:412) at org.basex.query.expr.If.iter(If.java:128) at org.basex.query.MainModule.iter(MainModule.java:110) at org.basex.query.QueryContext.iter(QueryContext.java:351) at org.basex.http.restxq.RestXqResponse.create(RestXqResponse.java:55) at org.basex.http.restxq.RestXqModule.process(RestXqModule.java:101) at org.basex.http.restxq.RestXqFunction.process(RestXqFunction.java:109) at org.basex.http.restxq.RestXqServlet.run(RestXqServlet.java:44) at org.basex.http.BaseXServlet.service(BaseXServlet.java:64) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:848) Both '/home/chris/Downloads/xml/billing_invoice_241040.xml' and '/etc/xmlmapper/pdf_invoice.fo' exist as I use them in a local java fopfactory which processes them fine.

Slow XQueries on a quite small database but great number of docs
by ansel.jm＠free.fr 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Hello, I have a speed problem with a quite simple query (2 flwor nested) on the database below. (almost 20.000 ms !!!) The great number of docs (1200) seems to slow down the database. But the resulting database is quite small (689kB) so I'm really disappointed... If someone has an idea, it would be nice... P.S. : I tried OPTIMIZE, CREATE INDEX... Nothing will work...

BaseX, DITA and DOCTYPE
by Stefan Popovic 23 Jan '16

23 Jan '16

Hi all, I can’t seem to find any information about how to keep the DOCTYPE when uploading files to a BaseX server. Here’s the situation: 1. We use oXygen and we edit DITA files. 2. We want to use an XML native database, therefore we’re considering BaseX. 3. When importing files in a BaseX server, the DOCTYPE is dropped. 4. However, oXygen needs the DOCTYPE for editing DITA files. Specifically, I am wondering if there is a BaseX server-side setting that would keep the DOCTYPE when uploading a file. Many thanks for your help, Stefan

XQPool
by Chris Speare 20 Jan '16

20 Jan '16

Have been trying to look at connection pooling due to requests of documents taking 1 second to pull - when I have 36000 documents to pull down for processing this is too slow. Some examples mention BaseXConnectionPoolXQDataSource with XQJ Connection Pool, however that seems to been in beta, last updated 02/2014 and the jar file is corrupt. Whilst this isn't under the control of BaseX is there any advice of a newer version, or recommendations for handling connection pools. I have a java service which is running 10 threads which pull from a queue of "request jobs" which involve pulling a document from a BaseX database, then loading into an in memory instance for further querying. This way I am able to pass around sections of the document as I drill down into it (iterating over nodes for processing) which is too slow to carry out through a server instance. Initially I attempted to create one connection to BaseX per thread, however this seemed even slower.

xquery:eval bug?
by Marc van Grootel 19 Jan '16

19 Jan '16

Hi, I'm trying to return a map or an array from xquery:eval. Seems this is not possible, yet the signature says it returns item()* xquery:eval('1 + 1') => 2 xquery:eval('[1,2]') => ERROR: [FOTY0014] Items of type array(*) have no string representation. xquery:eval('map { "x": 10 }') => ERROR: [FOTY0014] Items of type map(*) have no string representation. BTW: I saw that xquery:eval#3 is documented as returning item() while the other arities return item()* Tested on 8.3, haven't tested yet on 8.4beta but it's trivial to repro I figure. -- --Marc
