serialize vs csv:serialize
by Giuseppe Celano 20 Jul '18

20 Jul '18

Hi All, I am not sure whether the serialize function is working properly (the first example works, the second does not, because instead of tabs I get commas, and there is no way to specify to add the header) <csv> <record> <a>f</a> <b>f</b> <c>f</c> <d>f</d> <e>f</e> <f>f</f> </record> </csv> => csv:serialize(map{"header":"yes", "separator": " "}) return a b c d e f f f f f f f <csv> <record> <a>f</a> <b>f</b> <c>f</c> <d>f</d> <e>f</e> <f>f</f> </record> </csv> => serialize(map{"method":"csv", "item-separator": " "}) f,f,f,f,f,f Thanks! Giuseppe

Hi! Users send to us xml files according published xsd scheme. And they can use any software: any xml editor or special editors, developed by third companies, with textbox'es for fill business objects. So, our application does not have a graphical interface. Our software' main goal is to validate xml files by some business logic rules written in xquery language. Result of such validation is xml file with text that is all OK or there are errors. Errors are explained by xpath to error node and text description with some text for example "Line 100: The quantity of cows must be greater than 0". Result send to users as answer. And users want to see line numbers... >Hi Pavel, > >What kind of editor are your users using?

<rest:response> - unclear strategy of setting header during serialization
by Bogdan Bogucki 14 Jul '18

14 Jul '18

Hello, I encountered strange behavior during HTTP response. I need to set custom header Access-Control-Allow-Origin:*. To do that I am using custom response. Following code is working and set required header: declare %rest:POST("{$json}") %rest:path("/ping") function drpg:ping( $json as xs:string ) as element()* { <rest:response> <http:response status="200" message="OK"> <http:header name="Access-Control-Allow-Origin" value="*"/> <http:header name="Content-Type" value="text/html"/> </http:response> </rest:response>, let $p := json:parse($json) return ($p/json/data/_/_/_)[last()] }; Response header: Access-Control-Allow-Origin * Content-Length 11 Content-Type text/html;charset=utf-8 Date Sat, 14 Jul 2018 09:17:18 GMT Server Jetty(9.4.9.v20180320) I want to return plain text, so when I change return parameter to xs:string* and add data function header from <rest:response> is overwritten. Response header: Content-Length 6 Content-Type application/xml; charset=UTF-8 Date Sat, 14 Jul 2018 09:26:59 GMT Server Jetty(9.4.9.v20180320) Example code: declare %rest:POST("{$json}") %rest:path("/drpg/ping") function drpg:ping( $json as xs:string ) as xs:string* { <rest:response> <http:response status="200" message="OK"> <http:header name="Access-Control-Allow-Origin" value="*"/> <http:header name="Content-Type" value="text/html"/> </http:response> </rest:response>, let $p := json:parse($json) return data(($p/json/data/_/_/_)[last()]) }; Why does header is overwritten ? I think if header is set explicitly it shouldn't be overwritten. Best Regards Bogdan Bogucki

maps

Hi Is it possible to preserve the order of the keys in a map when the map is returned?: map{"b": 2, "c": 2, "a": 3} return map { "a": 3, "b": 2, "c": 2 } Thanks! Giuseppe

http:send-request - problem with form data

Hello, I have problem with http:send-request. I want to send post method request with form data but I encountered problem with characters encoding. Example: Request: for $x in http:send-request( <http:request method='post' href='http://localhost:3333'> <http:header name="User-Agent" value="Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/67.0.3396.99 Safari/537.36"/> <http:body media-type='application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8'> <![CDATA[start=0&length=100&sort=date_type&page=0&size=100]]> </http:body> </http:request> )[2]/json/data/results/content return $x Optimized Query: util:item-at(http:send-request(element Q{http://expath.org/ns/http-client}request { (attribute method { ("post") }, attribute href { ("http://localhost:3333") }, element Q{http://expath.org/ns/http-client}header { (attribute name { ("User-Agent") }, attribute value { ("Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/67.0.3396.99 Safari/537.36") }) }, element Q{http://expath.org/ns/http-client}body { (attribute media-type { ("application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8") }, "

 ") }) }), 2)/json/data/results/content Request send: POST / HTTP/1.1 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/67.0.3396.99 Safari/537.36 Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8 Host: copart.com:3333 Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2 Connection: keep-alive Content-Length: 75 start=0&length=100&sort=date_type&page=0&size=100 Payload is not correctly encoded it should be: start=0&length=100&sort=date_type&page=0&size=100 How can I force function http:send-request to serialize CDATA without escaping ?

Re: [basex-talk] Number of Databases in BaseX
by Christian Grün 12 Jul '18

12 Jul '18

Hi Martin (cc to the mailing list), The max. number of allowed databases depends on the directory limit of your operating system. In practice, it’s advisable to find a good ratio between size and number of databases, because your file system may require too much time to open a particular database if you have created too many instances. Best, Christian Martin Lourduswamy <martin.louis(a)gmail.com> schrieb am Fr., 13. Juli 2018 00:56: > Hi, > I know each DB is a actually a path in BaseX, > Is there a limit on the number of Databases a single Basex instance can > host, > Please let me know when you have sometime, > > Thanks, > Regards > Martin Lourduswamy >
