Sony,
the following query might do what you want:
copy $c := <entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:libx="http://libx.org/xml/libx2"> <id>1</id>
<title>Link Amazon By ISBN</title> <updated>2010-09-29T18:37:48.592Z</updated> <author> <name>LibX Team</name> <uri>http://libx.org</uri> <email>libx.org@gmail.com</email> </author> <content type="html">Content created by LibX Libapp Builder</content> </entry> modify ( replace value of node $c//*:name with 'Sony', replace value of node $c//*:content with concat('Copy of: ', $c//*:content) ) return $c

Hi, I am using BaseX 6.5. I am trying to transform a given node using an XQuery.
Say, I have an node like so: <entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:libx="http://libx.org/xml/libx2"> <id>1</id>
<title>Link Amazon By ISBN</title> <updated>2010-09-29T18:37:48.592Z</updated> <author> <name>LibX Team</name> <uri>http://libx.org</uri> <email>libx.org@gmail.com</email> </author> <content type="html">Content created by LibX Libapp Builder</content> </entry> I am trying to send this node to an xquery which is expected to do the following actions:
create a copy of this node (so that the actual node in the database does
not
change), transform/modify the duplicate copy of the given node return the modified duplicate copy of the given node
I would expect the output to be like so: <entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:libx="http://libx.org/xml/libx2"> <id>1</id>
<title>Link Amazon By ISBN</title> <updated>2010-09-29T18:37:48.592Z</updated> <author> <name>Sony</name> <uri>http://libx.org</uri> <email>libx.org@gmail.com</email> </author> <content type="html">Copy of: Content created by LibX Libapp Builder</content> </entry> I tried to perform the non-updating functions using transform and also
tried
to use a pending update list (Reference: http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Update#transform). None of this
works
as expected. Could you refer me to a more detailed documentation for performing such transform operations on nodes ? Thanks, Sony
