running Xunit tests from maven
by Duncan Paterson 15 Mar '20

15 Mar '20

HI Basex folks, i m looking into building two expath packages one for exist and one for bases using maven. I have the build configured and get proper xars, but i m struggling with running basex’s Xunit tests as part of the maven build. I didn’t find anything on the mailing list or in the docs about that. If somebody has an example project they could point me towards that would be greatly appreciated. Basically i want to know if this is possible at all, and if so what dependencies / libs i need to declare inside my pom for this to work. Greetings Duncan Ceterum censeo exist-db.org esse conriganda

Problem with file in db
by Jason Davis 13 Mar '20

13 Mar '20

Hello, I have a confounding problem involving a database that is deployed to a web server. The database will support a web app that provides an SPA interface to the database and lists resources through various APIs. When I test the app locally, everything works fine. However, when I deploy the database to a web server, one file in particular grounds the app to a halt. Apparently, this particular document does not exist in the database: [basex:doc] Database path 'd4st^newco-docs^master/shared/KuduVariables.xml' yields no documents. In addition, I can use the CLI to list the database contents and it's clearly listed there. When I attempt to delete it (i.e. delete shared/KuduVariables.xml), the result is 0 resources deleted. What would cause something like this to happen? Is there a preferred method for deploying the db that would prevent weird things like this happening? Thanks, Jason -- Jason Davis Staff Tools Engineer, Content Development jason.davis(a)cloudera.com Mobile: 510-225-8281

New version for RBaseX
by Ben Engbers 13 Mar '20

13 Mar '20

Hi, I am glad that version 0.2.4 from my R-package 'RBaseX' has been accepted by CRAN (https://cran.r-project.org/package=RBaseX)! Large parts of the earlier version from the R-package 'RBaseX' have been rewritten and the resulting code is much cleaner. I have added tests and thanks to those test, I found (and fixed) several bugs. To my knowledge, the full server-protocol has now been implemented. One of the main differences concerns error-handling. All client-requests to the basexserver end with either a \00 byte or a \01. I have used this feature to add an extra layer of error-handling. The default is still the regular tryCatch method. But after setting 'intercept' to TRUE, you can now define your reaction upon errors. See the following example: Session <- BasexClient$new("localhost", 1984L, username = "admin", password = "admin") Session$set_intercept(TRUE) Session$Execute("drop DB TestDB") Session$Execute("Open TestDB") if (!Session$get_success()) { Session$Create("TestDB") Session$Add("Test.xml", "<Line_1 line='1'>Content 1</Line_1>") } Session$Execute("Close") Session$restore_intercept() I am already working on a new version in which I will implement more specific R-related topics (populating dataframes with XQuery-results.

I just copied the regex-expression from this page "https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/XQuery/Tag_Cloud" (using regex always gives me headaches ;-( ).

How to improve the efficiency of data storing and data retrieving
by Ramzi Hammouda 02 Mar '20

02 Mar '20

Hello BaseX team, First of all, thank you for giving such a tremendous effort to help BaseX users, we appreciate it. We’re developing an application that has the sole use of exchanging XML messages with other clients, we chose BaseX to store messages in their xml format and used its RESTful APIs to update the database. Currently storing data in one xml document in one database, but this is not efficient because with time the document will be very large, thus storing and retrieving data from it will take more time. * Can I select a number of xml nodes from the document without the rest? For example returning only the last 200 xml messages ? if yes how to make it happen with REST methods? I thought about the solution of using multiple documents, so there is the possibility of retrieving data from one document at a time, but didn’t find a way to make this process automatic because there are number of issues I didn’t find a solution for: * How can the application know the number and names of existing documents in the database , didn’t find an xquery for this. Can you suggest better solutions ? Thank you. P Respectons ensemble l'environnement. N'imprimez ce message que si nécessaire. Let's respect the environment together. Only print this message if necessary.

Database specific xquery modules
by DYER Chris 02 Mar '20

02 Mar '20

I am looking for some ideas on some architecture surrounding xquery modules. Our situation is that we have multiple client applications in various languages that will connect to a database. We will have some reasonably complex xqueries to extract data in certain structures that will be used by each of these clients. So to avoid having to duplicate the query logic we would like the xqueries to reside "in" the database. Additionally, we would like to use the same BaseX installation for multiple databases, corresponding to multiple projects. The data in each of these databases may be against a different schema and our xqueries are essentially tied to the schema of the data. Thus, each database may need slightly different xqueries. The xquery library modules looks to be global for the BaseX instance, as does the loading of main modules off of disk. Is there any way to tie the query module or file to a specific database? We are trying to avoid being limited to 1 database per BaseX instance. An alternative would be to embed the xqueries within our client applications, but that involves duplication. Also, we are not sure if there are any performance difference with having the queries stored in the repo vs client side? For background, we are looking at migrating from oracle to BaseX. So, we are effectively looking for an equivalent of multiple clients connecting to a userspace and using stored procedures which are specific to that userspace. Any ideas on how to achieve this currently? Or is this something that BaseX could support? Cheers, Chris

Links to papers on http://basex.org/about/publications/ <http://basex.org/about/publications/> are broken. It looks like the URL string is broken off early at the first whitespace character. I can access directory http://files.basex.org/publications/ <http://files.basex.org/publications/> And it looks like the entire text in parenthesis should be the filename in the URL. — Steve M.

DB with MS Word .docx files breaks on base-uri()
by Majewski, Steven Dennis (sdm7g) 28 Feb '20

28 Feb '20

With a database containing MS Word .docx zip (and other) files: collection('BOV') ! base-uri(.) Returns => Error: Stopped at ., 1/29: [XQST0046] URI '/BOV/DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/[Content_Types].xml' is invalid. I’m guessing it doesn’t like the brackets as part of a URI, but since I’m adding the whole docx container, I can’t specify a different path when creating the DB. collection('BOV') ! db:path(.) However, works as a workaround: DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/[Content_Types].xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/_rels/.rels DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/_rels/document.xml.rels DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/document.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/footer3.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/header1.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/footer1.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/endnotes.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/footnotes.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/_rels/header1.xml.rels DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/header2.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/_rels/footer2.xml.rels DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/footer2.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/theme/theme1.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/settings.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/styles.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/customXml/itemProps1.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/numbering.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/customXml/_rels/item1.xml.rels DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/customXml/item1.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/docProps/core.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/fontTable.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/webSettings.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/word/stylesWithEffects.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.docx/docProps/app.xml DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.tei DCP-66/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS/2015_AUG_BOV_RETREAT_MINS.dc.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/[Content_Types].xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/_rels/.rels DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/_rels/document.xml.rels DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/document.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/footer3.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/header1.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/footer2.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/footer4.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/footer1.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/footnotes.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/endnotes.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/theme/theme1.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/settings.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/styles.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/numbering.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/customXml/_rels/item1.xml.rels DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/customXml/itemProps1.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/customXml/item1.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/docProps/core.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/fontTable.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/word/webSettings.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.docx/docProps/app.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.dc.xml DCP-66/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES/2010_FEB_BOARD_MINUTES.tei ...
