Stack Overflow: Try tail recursion
by Giuseppe G. A. Celano 20 Feb '19

20 Feb '19

I am writing a recursive function which is similar to the one here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27702718/to-add-values-in-cumulative-fo… Interestingly, local:sum() works if there are not many <book/>. However with 38000 book element I get the error "Stack Overflow: Try tail recursion". Any idea? Ciao, Giuseppe

Release client libraries as packages?
by Jakub Pavlík 20 Feb '19

20 Feb '19

Hi, as a programmer occasionally working with BaseX I find the current "way of life" of the client libraries rather inconvenient: 1. nowadays most programming languages have some sort of packaging system (PHP's composer, Ruby's gems, Python's pip etc.), but the official BaseX client libraries are not released to these and I have to copy the files "manually" to each project using them 2. the libraries are rather minimal, lacking proper documentation and test suite. (Yes, they are arguably small, but still.) Have you considered releasing them as packages (which would, at least for PHP, require a separate git repository)? Or do you prefer to have individuals who have use for such packages to create and maintain them themselves? Regards, Jakub

Docker Volumes Permission denied
by Marie Starck 19 Feb '19

19 Feb '19

Hello everyone, So I am looking to add Docker to a BaseX webapp that is currently running properly on my local. In order to do that, I ran docker run -ti -d --publish 1984:1984 --publish 8984:8984 --volume ~/Projects/Architextus/basex-xquery-server/data:/srv/BaseXData --volume ~/Projects/Architextus/basex-xquery-server/webapp:/srv/BaseXWeb --volume ~/Projects/Architextus/basex-xquery-server/repo:/srv/BaseXRepo basex/basexhttp:8.6.4 And while localhost:8984 shows me the regular BaseX introduction page, none of the rest endpoints work and I get this error when I try to access the webapp from my localhost: Stopped at /srv/BaseXWeb/xqm/g-holismo.xqm, 136/24: [bxerr:BXDB0002] Resource "/srv/BaseXData/DITA-AppResources/tbl.basex (Permission denied)" not found. Stack Trace: - /srv/BaseXWeb/xqm/g-holismo.xqm, 11/10 I checked the permissions on my docker container and it seems that the basex user only has permissions on WEB-INF but none of the volumes, BaseXData, BaseXRepo and BaseXWeb, those are shown as belonging to user 1000. Has anyone experienced this before? Thank you for any help or tip you could provide, Marie

Schema 1.1 validation and Xerces cta-full-xpath-checking?
by Zimmel, Daniel 15 Feb '19

15 Feb '19

Hi, is there any chance BaseX will support the cta-full-xpath-checking option (see https://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/features.html)? Without it, schema 1.1 validation is limited. I could not find any switches to configure Xerces features, but did find someone mentioning it from two years ago: https://www.mail-archive.com/basex-talk@mailman.uni-konstanz.de/msg08446.ht… Or have I missed something in the documentation? Regards, Daniel

Nullpointer exception using http:send-mail with authentication details, no send-authorization attribute
by Markus Wittenberg 15 Feb '19

15 Feb '19

Hi there, I get a Nullpointer exception (see below) using the http:send-mail method with authentication details (Basic Auth), but without the send-authorization attribute in the http:request element. According to the EXPath HTTP Client Module spec (http://expath.org/spec/http-client#d2e430) the send-authorization attribute is not mandatory, default value false should be used if it is missing.

proc:execute
by Giuseppe G. A. Celano 14 Feb '19

14 Feb '19

Hi, I am trying to run a parser via proc:execute/system. While if I run it from the command line, it works, it does not, if I run it via BaseX. More precisely, I get the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 325, in <module> test_data = loader.load(params.test) File "/Users/mycomputer/Desktop/Basex9.1beta 2/utils.py", line 57, in load for line in f: File "/Users/mycomputer/anaconda/lib/python3.6/encodings/ascii.py", line 26, in decode return codecs.ascii_decode(input, self.errors)[0] UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 5390: ordinal not in range(128) Is there a way to avoid that? Thanks. Best, Giuseppe

Re: [basex-talk] Global locks
by James Ball 14 Feb '19

14 Feb '19

I think I’m probably doing something similar on a current project with but with some careful query writes and use of jobs I’ve been able to keep everything running within acceptable time. However while optimising my code it did get me thinking about possible improvements. Clearly it’s difficult (or even impossible) to determine all the databases that will be used ahead of running the query. But I wonder how many times the calling function already knows? Then I thought of the (# db:enforceindex #) that was introduced for cases where the query writer knows that the databases will have indexes. I wondered if something similar might be possible for databases. A pragma or a function wrapper that would allow the name of a database (or databases) to be supplied and that would restrict access only to that database for the rest of the query. Returning an error if the query tries to address another. I’m sure this wouldn’t be simple - but might be easier and more reliable than trying to find more optimisations to the locking algorithm. Just thinking aloud… Kindest regards, James > From: Christian Grün <christian.gruen(a)gmail.com> > Subject: Re: [basex-talk] Global locks > Date: 11 February 2019 at 12:27:37 GMT > To: Andy Bunce <bunce.andy(a)gmail.com> > Cc: "basex-talk(a)mailman.uni-konstanz.de" <basex-talk(a)mailman.uni-konstanz.de> > > > Hi Andy, > > The current behavior is correct indeed – but it might not be what one > expects.

jobs:list-details o/p
by Andy Bunce 13 Feb '19

13 Feb '19

Hi, Before BaseX 9 jobs:list-details would return the query string used in the jobs:eval (or the uri if that was used) - as per the current docs [1] Versions 9+ returns a "dummy" file name in this case. jobs:eval("2+4",(),map{"cache":true()}) jobs:list-details("job2") <job id="job2" type="QueryJob" state="cached" user="admin" duration="PT0.001S" reads="(none)" writes="(none)" time="2019-02-12T17:53:41.772Z">file:///C:/Users/andy/git/vue-poc/src/vue-poc/features/tasks/model.build/file</job> I found the old behavior useful, (although it missed recording the static-base-uri). /Andy [1] http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Jobs_Module#jobs:list-details

starts-with in a satisfies statement fails to fail
by George Sofianos 13 Feb '19

13 Feb '19

Hi, I have a specific piece of code which fails to run as expected. Unfortunately i didn't manage to create an MCVE so far. The part of code that should fail in my script is: some $i in $data satisfies starts-with($i, $string) Where $data is a list of strings, and $string is a sequence of two strings - example ("S1", "S2"). The Query executes without error, but the trace message is never visible. The part of the Query plan that executes successfully (while it shouldn't) is: <StaticFunc name="common:startsWith" type="xs:boolean" arg0="elements" arg1="string"> <GFLWOR type="xs:boolean" size="1"> <Let type="xs:string*"> <Var name="$string" id="178" type="xs:string*"/> <FnTrace name="trace(value[,label])" type="xs:string*"> <StaticFuncCall name="common:string" tailCall="false" type="xs:string*"> <VarRef> <Var name="$string" id="177" type="item()*" promote="true"/> </VarRef> </StaticFuncCall> <Str type="xs:string">STRING: </Str> </FnTrace> </Let> <Quantifier option="some" type="xs:boolean" size="1"> <GFLWOR type="xs:boolean*"> <For type="xs:string" size="1"> <Var name="$i" id="180" type="xs:string"/> <StaticFuncCall name="common:string" tailCall="false" type="xs:string*"> <VarRef> <Var name="$elements" id="176" type="item()*" promote="true"/> </VarRef> </StaticFuncCall> </For> <FnTrace name="trace(value[,label])" type="xs:boolean" size="1"> <FnStartsWith name="starts-with(string,sub[,collation])" type="xs:boolean" size="1"> <VarRef type="xs:string" size="1"> <Var name="$i" id="180" type="xs:string"/> </VarRef> <VarRef type="xs:string*"> <Var name="$string" id="178" type="xs:string*"/> </VarRef> </FnStartsWith> <Str type="xs:string">SATISFY: </Str> </FnTrace> </GFLWOR> </Quantifier> </GFLWOR> </StaticFunc> I'm not sure if you can find anything from the Query plan for why this is happening. This fails either with or without inlining. Regards, George

Is there a method in a Java client/server architecture to get the current version of BaseX (i.e. 9.1.2)? I could not find it anywhere. ClientSession.info is always blank.
