Re: [basex-talk] Unwanted XML output when using RestXQ custom response

Hi Mickael,

Welcome to the list.

Your RESTXQ code looks correct to me; I have just tested it locally; the client request of "http://localhost:8984/plugins/test.txt" gives me only the file contents.

Do you use a recent version of BaseX? How did you test your RESTXQ endpoint?

Salutations, Christian

Hello,

This is my first post here, I hope this is the right list for such questions.

I am using RestXQ to send assets to the browser. Given that I want to control some headers ("expires" and such), I thought I could use RestXQ custom responses.

Here's what I came up with:

declare
    %rest:path("/plugins/{$filePath=.*}")
function max.file:pluginUIFile($filePath as xs:string){
  let $path := file:parent(file:parent(static-base-uri())) || "/plugins/"  || $filePath
    return
        (<rest:response>
          <http:response status="200">
              <http:header name="expires" value="Wed, 21 Oct 2222 07:28:00 GMT"/>
          </http:response>
      </rest:response>,
          max.util:rawFile($path))
};

The HTTP response does have the wanted header. However, the body has some unwanted XML at the top:

<rest:response xmlns:rest="http://exquery.org/ns/restxq%22%3E <http:response xmlns:http="http://expath.org/ns/http-client%22/%3E <output:serialization-parameters xmlns:output="http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization%22%3E <output:media-type value="text/ecmascript"/> </output:serialization-parameters> </rest:response> class DocumentBasket { constructor(basket_id = "basket") { this.storage = localStorage; this.basket_id = basket_id; }

_fetch_basket_data() {
    let basket_data = this.storage.getItem(this.basket_id);
    if (basket_data === null) {
        basket_data = [];
    } else {
        basket_data = JSON.parse(basket_data);
    }
    return basket_data;
}

[more js below]

Since I'm fairly new to the basex framework, I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if it's some kind of bug.

Thank you for your help,
