[basex-talk] Change data directory for basex & BaseXGUI

I’ve been learning and testing basex with the default MacOS home-brew installation. For production, I’m planning on using the war file served using tomcat. I would like to use the basex command line client and BaseXGUI to do some initial setup and testing on the tomcat web app databases. Is there a java property setting or other way to set the data directory location for these programs ? Or do I have to set these paths in ~/basex/.basex file . The latter is not ideal, as I may need to run update scripts from different user cron jobs, so I’ld rather not depend on home directory. — Steve Majewski
