Hi,

You can not have multiple ? in a query, just pass the variables as additional parameters: http://localhost:8984/rest?run=filename.xq&$a=444&$b=3333

Kind regards, Ralf

Thanks Ralf,

What If I would like to pass some arguments to xquery script http://localhost:8984/rest?run=mult.xqhttp://localhost:8984/rest?run=filen ame.xq

Let suppose mult.xq has 2 external variables $a and $b defined and like to pass their values when we call it.

The url will be

http://localhost:8984/rest?run=filename.xq?$a=444&$b=3333

?

This is giving error "ile or directory "mult.xq?a=21" not found."

What is correct way of passing external variable values through rest url?

mult.xq:

declare variable $a as xs:integer external; declare variable $b as xs:integer external;

return <a> {$a * $b}</a>

Hi,

these queries load scripts from the database and execute them. To execute scripts from HTTPPATH, use something like http://localhost:8984/rest?run=filename.xq

Kind regards, Ralf

Christian,

I am trying to set up Basex HTTP server and run some xquery scripts

through

...

REST style.

In http://docs.basex.org/wiki/REST#Usage_Examples, we have example http://localhost:8984/rest/factbook/index.xq to run index.xq scripts.

Where are we keeping xquery scripts?

In .basex configuration file, we have

DBPATH = /Users/xxx/BaseXData HTTPPATH = /Users/xxx/BaseXHTTP REPOPATH = /Users/xx/BaseXRepo

Which one is for folder that keeps xquery scripts? Above query returns "Path does not exist." error. I have compiled the recent version of Basex and use it on Mac OSX Lion 64 bit.

Thanks

Erol Akarsu
