Hi Jason,
there are two possibilities:
- Have a look at our [archive module]. You can use it to decompress the archive after loading it into BaseX. Currently, there is no hook for decompressing files automatically.
- Use [ADDARCHIVES] option to unzip while inserting a document, this should be quit similar to what you can achieve using eXist / MarkLogic.
