Term Frequency/inverse Document Frequency Calculation?
by Eliot Kimber 13 Jun '22

13 Jun '22

We’d like to report tf/idf for our DITA content set (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tf%E2%80%93idf) Of course this is possible using BaseX and basic full-text processing. My question: has anyone done this or is there somewhere I can look to at least get an idea of the level of effort? Having thought about it for not much time at all I’m thinking it’s an application of the basic “make an index over the words for each doc” technique that others have discussed recently. Thanks, E. _____________________________________________ Eliot Kimber Sr Staff Content Engineer O: 512 554 9368 M: 512 554 9368 servicenow.com<https://www.servicenow.com> LinkedIn<https://www.linkedin.com/company/servicenow> | Twitter<https://twitter.com/servicenow> | YouTube<https://www.youtube.com/user/servicenowinc> | Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/servicenow>

random initialization vector (IV) - "As the IV has to be passed along with the encrypted message somehow"
by Patrick Durusau 13 Jun '22

13 Jun '22

Greetings! The recent noise from MongoDB about encrypted querying made me look at the encryption documentation, here: https://docs.basex.org/wiki/Cryptographic_Module The signatures seem straight forward enough: crypto:encrypt|($data as xs:anyAtomicType, $type as xs:string, $key as xs:anyAtomicType, $algorithm as xs:string) as xs:base64Binary||| ||||*crypto:decrypt*($data as xs:anyAtomicType, $type as xs:string, $key as xs:anyAtomicType, $algorithm as xs:string) as xs:string|| ||OK, but where is the random initialization vector (IV)?|| ||The documentation says:|| ||"As the IV has to be passed along with the encrypted message somehow, data which has been encrypted by the |crypto:encrypt| function in BaseX can only be decrypted by calling the |crypto:decrypt| function."|| ||I suppose as a standards editor it's the "somehow" that I find troubling. Exactly what "somehow?" || ||Asking because I would want to invoke a recorded IV to change:|| ||"The result of an encryption using the same message, algorithm and key looks different each time it is executed."|| ||to:|| ||The result of an encryption using the same message, algorithm, key and *IV looks the same* each time it is executed.|| ||Such that I can search by delivering an encrypted string in an XQuery statement, to be match against the same encrypted string in BaseX, with the results of the query being returned and the result being decrypted upon delivery to the user.|| ||That is the data in BaseX and the query, are never visible during the query or response to the query.|| ||Does that make sense?|| ||It's not an immediate need but I thought I should ask before it is.|| ||Thanks for all you do in this wonderful project!|| ||Patrick || -- Patrick Durusau patrick(a)durusau.net Technical Advisory Board, OASIS (TAB) Editor, OpenDocument Format TC (OASIS), Project Editor ISO/IEC 26300 Co-Editor, ISO/IEC 13250-1, 13250-5 (Topic Maps) Another Word For It (blog): http://tm.durusau.net Homepage: http://www.durusau.net Twitter: patrickDurusau

Lock avoidance using inspect:functions?
by Andy Bunce 13 Jun '22

13 Jun '22

Following Omar's message on lock management [1] I thought I would share a technique that I have tried. It makes use of the function inspect:functions [2]. The code below shows two versions of an eval-update function. After running each version the info.result view reports: - local:eval-update => a global write lock. - local:eval-update2 => no locks at all! I am pretty sure this is a bug/oversight in inspect:functions. I suspect running it risks data integrity, so it is not a good idea. However, I do make use of a non-updating version of this technique, as a way to do string evaluation without triggering a global read lock. If I know that no lockable resources are referenced then it seems safe to me? Note: inspect:functions is similar to the unimplemented standard XQuery 3.1 function fn:load-xquery-module[3] /Andy [1] https://mailman.uni-konstanz.de/pipermail/basex-talk/2022-May/017207.html [2] https://docs.basex.org/wiki/Inspection_Module#inspect:functions [3] https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions-31/#func-load-xquery-module (:~ evaluate XQuery string, string is enriched with external variable definitions for convenience :) declare %updating function local:eval-update($exp as xs:string,$binds as map(*)){ let $decl:= map:keys($binds)!``[declare variable $`{ . }` external;]``=>string-join("") return xquery:eval-update($decl || $exp, $binds) }; declare %updating function local:eval-update2($exp as xs:string,$binds as map(*)){ let $decl:= map:keys($binds)!``[let $`{ . }` :=$binds("`{ . }`") ]``=>string-join("") let $mod:=("module namespace _='abuse'; declare %updating function _:foo($binds){" , $decl, "return " , $exp , "};")=>string-join("") let $p:=file:create-temp-file("APB", ".xqm") let$_:=file:write-text($p,$mod) return updating inspect:functions($p)($binds) }; (: note: the bind functionality is not used in this example) let $binds:=map{"p1":42} let $exp:="db:replace('factbook', 'abuse.xml', '<a/>')" return local:eval-update2($exp,$binds)

Faceted searching and browsing ?
by Majewski, Steven Dennis (sdm7g) 07 Jun '22

07 Jun '22

Is it possible to do faceted browsing with BaseX ? I think the answer is no, however I may have been initially fooled into trying because my first test case was far simpler than my other use cases. The simple case was getting counts of publisher from an EAD collection and sorting by greatest number. Here’s my working code: declare function local:normalize( $s ) { translate( replace( lower-case($s), '^(us-)+', '' ), '-', '' ) }; declare variable $orgs := doc('ead-inst/ead-inst.xml'); declare variable $orgcodes := collection('published')/ead/eadheader/eadid/@mainagencycode ! local:normalize(.) => distinct-values() ; declare function local:countpubfacets( $c ) { for $x in ( for $ead in $c let $ORG := local:normalize($ead/*:ead/*:eadheader/*:eadid/@mainagencycode) group by $ORG order by $ORG let $inst := if ($ORG != "") then ($orgs/list/inst[@prefix=$ORG],$orgs/list/inst[lower-case(@oclc) = $ORG] ) return array{ count($ead), $ORG, $inst/@orgcode/string(), $inst/string() } ) order by $x(1) descending return $x }; local:countpubfacets( collection('published')) In this case: (1) The number of unique @mainagencycode’s are less than 100, and (2) There is only one location for those codes. and performance is acceptable (or at least it seems to be in my tests). My other unsuccessful attempts have been with trying to rank //subject or //persname ’s. In this case, there are many thousands of unique subjects and names, and the subject and persname elements can occur in multiple locations in the file. Attempts to search similar to the above method ( as well as a couple of other variations I’ve tried ), even on a smaller subset of categories take entirely too much time — often I have to kill the search before it manages to complete. I have tried looking at index:facets() https://docs.basex.org/wiki/Index_Module#index:facets <https://docs.basex.org/wiki/Index_Module#index:facets> Which has only reinforced my notion that it’s not possible. So for now, I’m resigned to deferring that functionality, and exploring building a specialized index along side the BaseX indexes - either using Solr and querying the Solr index from BaseX, or else building some other index structure DB in BaseX along side my document DB. Eager to hear any tips or feedback on this problem or alternate solutions, and also general info about BaseX index structure and what useful info can be caught by introspection by those index module functions. Aside from the faceting, search by //subject (or other fields) is quite acceptable performance, even chaining several filters together with => declare function eadsearch:findBySubj( $ctx, $subj as xs:string?, $opt ) { if ( $subj ) then $ctx/*[ft:contains( .//subject, ft:tokenize($subj), $opt )] else $ctx }; — Steve M.

XML Catalog and xslt:transform()
by Zimmel, Daniel 02 Jun '22

02 Jun '22

Hi, after reading https://docs.basex.org/wiki/Catalog_Resolver and digging in the list archives (https://mailman.uni-konstanz.de/pipermail/basex-talk/2019-March/014199.html ) I still have trouble understanding catalog files. Is this supposed to work with xslt:transform() and BaseX GUI 9.7.2? The default option (DTD = false) is ignored by xslt:transform() because the function is definitely requesting the external DTD. This prevents transforming XML with DTD declarations that are not available (if I understand correctly, a problem that the DTD option is trying to solve in general). When I try to solve this via catalog files (actually I do not need the DTD), I do not have success. Here are my mini examples: Saxon HE 10.3 resides in the lib folder .basex setting: # Local Options SERIALIZER = indent=no DTD = true XML in local folder "C:/temp/catalog": <!DOCTYPE dokument SYSTEM "http://www.blahblahblah.info/dtd/dokument.dtd"> <dokument> <doknr>01</doknr> </dokument> catalog.xml in local folder "C:/temp/catalog": <catalog prefer="system" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"> <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://www.blahblahblah.info/dtd/" rewritePrefix="file:///C:/temp/catalog/dtd/"/> </catalog> dokument.dtd in local folder "C:/temp/catalog/dtd": <!ELEMENT dokument (doknr)> <!ELEMENT doknr (#PCDATA)> XQuery query.xq in local folder "C:/temp/catalog": (# db:catfile catalog.xml #) { xslt:transform('dokument.xml', 'transform.xsl') } With or without pragma, this always results in a java.net.UnknownHostException (because the system ID is not available, that's true), but I would be expecting this would resolve to "file:///C:/temp/catalog/dtd/dokument.dtd" Not working in GUI nor via CCL. What am I getting wrong? Thanks, Daniel

Constructing and querying map structures in a dynamic way
by Markus Elfring 28 May '22

28 May '22

Hello, I would like to construct a map structure based on a dynamic selection by the means of a FLWOR expression. https://www.w3.org/TR/2017/REC-xquery-31-20170321/#id-maps The keys and associated values should be presented as a CSV-like file by a subsequent data processing step. Can it become easier to find existing XQuery script examples for such an use case? Regards, Markus

Executing optimized XQuery in RestXQ without having to deal with global lock situations
by Omar Siam 25 May '22

25 May '22

What I like about BaseX is that it is very good at optimizing self-contained queries about the size a user can read and understand [1] [2] and that it has a DB locking system for transaction management [3] that is robust and easy to understand. What I don’t like so much about BaseX is that these two mechanisms don’t work very well with complex code that is split into various modules. I use modules for code that may be shared among projects or just as a means of grouping common concerns in one module. That I don’t like this behaviour does not mean I know (or have any hope) that this can be solved in a better way without at least make unpleasant sacrifices elsewhere. It is just the setting I have to deal with. When BaseX cannot determine anymore which DBs are used in a query and which are not, it falls back to assuming there are no indexes, so automatic optimization in this regard is stopped, and it assumes that just all DBs known to BaseX are used in that query so it acquires a global lock. [4] When doing only reading queries this is not much of a problem. Using indexes in queries can be forced with functions or with the db:enforceindex pragma [5]. Problems start showing when trying to implement a CRUD RestXQ application. Create, update and delete can be implemented using the XQuery update standard but of course now this will get slow and cumbersome when for many read operations it cannot be determined which DBs they use and so a global read lock is held. That of course means that no global write lock can be acquired until all read operations are finished on all DBs known to a BaseX instance. This is especially problematic when one instance of BaseX with a RestXQ application is used to serve data from independent databases. Say one instance of BaseX has a RestXQ API that servers a lot of different dictionaries for different natural languages. This is my use case. Although the content of dictionary entries is different, the parts in the TEI/XML I try to manipulate, that are created, read, updated or deleted, are the same. So, a common API should handle many independent dictionaries, edited by many users, using one instance of BaseX. Also, when working with my biggest XML database of several GB I ran into problems when reindexing after an update. Reindexing all those GB of data takes too long and makes small updates in there impossible. Why not multiple instances of BaseX? Well because for better or worse BaseX runs in a JVM and even after I tried to minimize the memory footprint of an idle BaseX it is still a little less than 300 MB and we run a lot of services here on shared servers so RAM usage matters. Also, RAM usage is a part of the costs when using commercial cloud services. But of course, not running BaseX at all if not used is best if you pay per minute. And also: as recently discussed on the list: BaseX as any Java program gets optimized while running by the JVM and then those optimizations as well as caching will benefit all the data hosted in one instance but would be less efficient with multiple instances I assume. So how do I achieve four goals: * Keep the XQuery short and concise because that is what the optimizer can handle best? * Keep the code separated into Modules that deal with one particular aspect? * Use RestXQ and not another technique to actually implement the RESTful API? * All this while being able to split GB of XML data into portions that can be reindexed in a reasonable amount of time? The two thing that help here a lot is eval functions like xquery:eval [6] and String Constructors [7]. Say, I want to run a query but on different collections (databases). I can do this by having a list of collections and executing the actual query in a for loop with the concrete collection as a variable. If I just write the XQuery code down like this the problem is that the optimizer would need to evaluate the query to find out which databases to lock and what indexes can be used. BaseX is not built to do this (yet). It does not mock run the query. So, it decides that a global lock needs to be used. Depending on the use of XQuery Update either a global write lock or a global read lock is acquired. Easy to understand but does not help with performance here. If I want to make the situation worse for the optimizer I can use xquery:eval. That of course makes the XQuery code totally opaque to the optimizer. A global lock is guaranteed. Still another eval function is a solution here. There is the jobs module jobs:eval [8]. If I break up my code into jobs only these jobs hold locks for as long as they run. This can be a much shorter period of time than what it takes to run a whole RestXQ request. It is also possible to find a place that needs to be changed in a number of databases and then only write lock one of them to change something. So, if my data is stored in not one but several database files I can make them look like one big XML for API purposes, but still have small enough independent parts that can be indexed separately so updates with reindexing are relatively fast. If I have a search I want to perform on parts of databases that are in principle independent, like dictionary entries in a large dictionary, I can do this in parallel on each database. I tried to implement this idea with jobs:eval and it actually worked very well. Only the interface of the function was cumbersome to use the way I wanted to make use of this functionality. So, I wrote a wrapper around jobs:eval and jobs:wait that makes it easy to generate small self-contained XQuery code [9] using String Constructors [10] and some other functions used for querying the structure of the data stored in BaseX like listing and filtering databases by name [11]. Another other goal for this util:eval(s) function was to make it still easy to see errors [12]. A typical use is something like: run a filter query in all databases [13] that are found using a database name filter in some settings database [14] and use a string for comparison from a request URL parameter [15]. Find an entry out of a few million and replace it with an updated version. Of course, with reindexing [16]. What were some (unexpected) problems? Because now jobs and especially write jobs lock databases while the RestXQ code is running the RestXQ code itself cannot hold any read or write lock. That is possible in BaseX but some functions force a global lock. For example db:list. I think there are good reasons why you want to have a global lock and therefore atomicity during a query when you ask for the list of databases. Of course, my code happens to need to list databases quite often. And my code should not hold a global lock here after getting the list. My list of databases may change during a RestXQ call but I don’t care yet about that situation. I think it does not matter to me. There is also a now simple solution: Outsource db:list to its own job [17]. I also remember there was a problem with an automatic conversion of RestXQ parameters creating a randomly named lock. But it was no problem to do the conversion explicitly in XQuery code and so have the RestXQ code not hold any lock again. Now there already was a question on the mailing list about BaseX behaviour in a multithreaded environment. I don’t use that BaseX.jar in such a way with my own Java code but jobs are (Java) threads. And the interesting thing here is now that with a lot of threads (say 700) that don’t lock each other, a bottleneck shows in the way BaseX handles file access. At least the Java profiler showed me this as a primary source of wasted time [18]. If I get it correctly then file access is as usual done in 4KB portions which are read into a buffer and smaller parts are accessed from there. This way is by far the most efficient way to do this on any current operating system and file system. But now this buffer’s handling needs protection from the buffer being manipulated in different threads. All I found in the JDK for this is a performance nightmare was the Jave nio streams systems [19], which tries to guarantee quite a few threads related consistencies [20] and seems really slow. This seems to be a well-known fact documented numerous times on the internet [21]. I also tried with one of the tests BaseX contains [22] and an attempt to use FileChannel instead of the current RandomAccessFile base implementation and found the documented behaviour: Java nio file classes are no replacement for the current implementation when it comes to performance. Looking at other databases I saw they implement something OS dependent but it is hard to compare [23].
