Bug in array:fold-left?
by Marc van Grootel 21 Dec '14

21 Dec '14

Hi, I think I've spotted a bug in array:fold-left (using 20141219 snapshot) array:tail([1,2,3]) => [2,3] array:fold-left( array:tail([1,2,3]), (), function($result, $fn) { ($result, $fn) } ) => (1,2) Using array:fold-right in the above example returns (2,3). -- --Marc

Just in: Michael Kay gave fn:apply it's blessing and it will be in XQuery 3.1. Great news. Thanks to the WG and all who participated. I don't want to sound too pushy, but ... eh ... when can we have it ;-)) See: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=26585 --Marc

tiny issue
by Rob Stapper 19 Dec '14

Hi, Concerning latest snapshot: color scheme doesn't apply correctly on datatype-declarations of function parameters ( as xs:string). It still works fine on the datatype-declaration of the function itself. See attachment Rob --- Dit e-mailbericht is gecontroleerd op virussen met Avast antivirussoftware. http://www.avast.com

What is the best way to implement an async REST method?
by Marc van Grootel 16 Dec '14

16 Dec '14

How would you implement an async REST pattern? I don't remember having seen anything that makes me do this using plain XQuery. Does this mean the only way to tackle this would be via Java and events maybe? I would post to a URL, this URL would accept the post and return a temporary URL where I can check the status of my request, then once it's ready this temp URL will redirect me to the location of the real resource. That's the gist of the async REST pattern that I would like to implement. What would be the best approach to experiment with this? --Marc

BaseX 8.0: DBA
by Christian Grün 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

Hi all, This is yet another update on the next, upcoming version of BaseX: We have added a new database administration (DBA) web frontend to our ZIP and EXE distributions. It allows you to create and administrate databases, evaluate queries in realtime, view log files, manage users, and more. It was completely written with XQuery and RESTXQ, apart from a few lines of Javascript code. The new frontend was added due to the known shortcomings of the Java GUI, which cannot be used to run queries on other servers. As a consequence, we have removed the server dialog from the desktop application. We hope that DBA will help you to write your own web applications based on RESTXQ! Some more infos and design goals can be found in our Wiki [1]. Have fun, we are looking forward to your feedback, Christian PS: NO, the web frontend does not provide all the cute features of the desktop gui, like the treemap, scatterplot, syntax highlighting, etc… But it may provide some of them in future. Your contributions are welcome! [1] http://docs.basex.org/wiki/DBA

In second case it is adding to database very fast in both the cases.But it is consuming the memory.Is their any way to add xml to db with less memory and as well with performence.

Upgrades and version compatibility
by Pascal Heus 12 Dec '14

12 Dec '14

Is there any documentation available around database compatibility across BaseX versions? For example, can I use a 7.6 database with 7.7 / 7.8 / 7.9 / 8.0 etc.? If I opena 7.6 database with 7.9, it may work may can the database still be used with 7.6 if I make any change? I we want to convert a 7.6 database to 7.9 or 8.0, what would be the easiest approach (besides a full reload of the source document, which in some case is not possible)? We have a couple projects running on 7.2 and 7.6 and trying to find a good upgrade strategy. Also, some users have opened these databases with more recent releases and experiencing stability issue so trying to determine if this could be a source of the problems. thanks *P

"User has already been assigned." and 500s errors with Docker
by Andreas Jung 11 Dec '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi there, I am experimenting with Docker and BaseX 8 (snapshot of yesterday). I wrote my own Dockerfile https://github.com/zopyx/docker-basex and create my own Docker image https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/zopyx/basex80/ My WebDAV test suite now throws continuously HTTP 500 errors and I see "User has already been assigned." messages on the basexhttp console. The BaseX log but talks about HTTP 200 responses. Thoughts?
