Basex HTTP server : path not found error
by Erol Akarsu 06 Oct '11

06 Oct '11

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

basex configuration file
by developer loke 05 Oct '11

05 Oct '11

Hi. I am looking for options to configure the server as documented in the Wiki, but I can not find .basex file anywhere, and there seems to be no documentation on the Wiki. I am specifically looking for settings to bind the server to a particular IP address. Thanks Loke

Final update on BaseX 6.8
by Christian Grün 03 Oct '11

03 Oct '11

Dear all, the final deadline of BaseX 6.8 will be October 14th. Be sure this won't be an ordinary release.. ;) Thanks to your feedback, our new REST API has undergone some more changes: -- XQuery files that are stored in the database will now be evaluated instead of being retrieved as raw file. -- all binary resources will now be returned with their correct content (mime) type -- variables don't have to be prefixed with a dollar sign anymore Find some more information at: http://docs.basex.org/wiki/REST Next, thanks to the contributions of Toshio HIRAI, our full-text engine can now be used to tokenize Japanese text corpora: http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Full-Text#Languages Have fun, Christian ___________________________ BaseX Team Christian Grün Uni KN, Box 188 D-78457 Konstanz http://www.basex.org

testing external variables in the gui
by Randy reed 02 Oct '11

02 Oct '11

I'm new to XQUERY so perhaps I misunderstand how to do what I want. I'm trying to pass an external value to a variable in the query. I declared the variable as external at the top. Like this: declare variable $inputstud as xs:string* external; My understanding is that I now execute the program like this java -cp basex-6.8-SNAPSHOT.jar org.basex.BaseX ~/MyDocuments/Dropbox/student_ind_detail.xq -binputstud=900426517 then in the where of my query I do where $u/ID eq $x/USERID and $u/IDNUMBER eq $inputstud Unfortunately, for some reason this doesn't work. I'd like to try this in the gui of basex to see if I can figure out what has gone wrong, but I can't figure out how to pipe external variable to the Gui, is there a way. Thanks Randy -- Dr. Randall Reed Assistant Professor, Dept. of Philosophy and Religion Appalachian State University

SQL for Basex
by Erol Akarsu 01 Oct '11

01 Oct '11

I am testing SQL functions in upcoming basex 6.8. I downloaded snapshot and run it against oracle and provided oracle jdbc driver. But it could not find driver. I am using MAC OSX Lion Here is how I execute: java -cp ~/workspace/lib/ojdbc14.jar -jar ~/Desktop/basex-6.8-SNAPSHOT.jar let $url := "jdbc:oracle:thin@xxx.com:1521/b2bdev" (: let $l := sql:init("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver") :) let $ll := sql:connect($url) return $ll Result Query: let $url := "jdbc:oracle:thin@xxx.com:1521/b2bdev" (: let $l := sql:init("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver") :) let $ll := sql:connect($url) return $ll Error: [FOSQ0001] An SQL exception occurred: 'No suitable driver found for jdbc:oracle:thin@xxx.com:1521/b2bdev' Thanks Erol Akarsu On Fri, Sep 30, 2011 at 8:30 PM, developer loke <developer.loke(a)gmail.com>wrote: > Hi.

csv export problem
by Kevin S. Clarke 26 Sep '11

26 Sep '11

Hi, Timely that CSV is being discussed. I have a question that has been stumping me... I want to be able to output something like: "text here", "<div><a href=""http://basex.org"">text, and more</a></div>", "text here again" What's stumping me is being able to double-quote escape the quotation marks that are in my markup. I've tried serializing my elements and then replacing the single quotes of the attributes to double quotes but then when I try to write that to a file (either serializing as text or xml) the tags are escaped to < etc. Here is a bit of what I've tried: declare option output:indent 'no'; declare variable $txtSer := <serialization-parameters xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization"> <method value="text"/> </serialization-parameters>; declare variable $xmlSer := <serialization-parameters xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization"> <method value="xml"/> <indent value="no"/> </serialization-parameters>; declare variable $outFile := 'out2.csv'; declare variable $xml := <sample><a href="http://basex.org">text, and more text</a></sample>; declare function local:writeEOL() { file:append($outFile, '
', $txtSer) }; (: Trying to output markup so I can eventually output something like: "text", "<div><a href=""http://basex.org"">text, and more</a></div>", "text" :) ( file:append($outFile, $xml, $txtSer), (: only text of xml out :) local:writeEOL(), file:append($outFile, $xml, $xmlSer), (: xml out but can't escape quotes :) local:writeEOL(), file:append($outFile, serialize($xml), $txtSer), (: tags escaped :) local:writeEOL(), file:append($outFile, serialize($xml, $txtSer), $txtSer), (: only text out :) local:writeEOL(), file:append($outFile, serialize($xml), $xmlSer), (: tags escaped :) local:writeEOL(), file:append($outFile, serialize($xml), $txtSer), (: tags escaped :) local:writeEOL(), file:append($outFile, concat('<![CDATA[', serialize($xml), ']]>'), $xmlSer), (: tags escaped :) local:writeEOL(), file:append($outFile, concat('<![CDATA[', serialize($xml), ']]>'), $txtSer), (: tags escaped :) local:writeEOL(), file:append($outFile, '<,<', $txtSer) (: both are escaped :) ) I don't seem to be able to output the markup in either text or xml mode. What am I doing wrong? Thanks! Kevin

export to CSV, or even Excel
by Andreas Karpf 26 Sep '11

26 Sep '11

Hello, I have got question regarding the export function of Basex. I used BaseX to load the Reuters Corpus Volume 1 which is a corpus of around 800k files, unzipped nealry 3GB in size. Is there any way to export some parts of these files (with xpath), parsed into a Basex database, to csv? I am aware that those kind of questions would probably fall under the support which costs. But if there is any simpler solution for that it would be very nice if you could post it. It would help me a lot! Best regards, Andreas

Builds full-text information.
by Toshio HIRAI 26 Sep '11

26 Sep '11

Hi. Although I was trying implements of Japanese Lexer to 6.8 beta, I have noticed that the result of a ft:mark() function shifts. 55 line of https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/blob/master/src/main/java/org/basex/query/… final FTLexer lex = new FTLexer(ftopt).sc().init(nd.atom()); FTLexer will generate the tokenizer of the default language instead of an original language, if it does not perform in this way. How is it? In code which I am correcting, ft:mark() operated normally by carrying out like this. thanks. -- Toshio HIRAI

Query question
by Wiard Vasen 26 Sep '11

26 Sep '11

Dear All, Is it possible to formulate a query which gives the distinct documents from a repository containing a specific word: let $range := 1 to 640 for $doc in collection('brievenvangogh') let $uri := base-uri($doc), $num := substring($uri, string-length($uri) - 6, 3) where $num castable as xs:integer and xs:integer($num) = $range return <document uri='{$uri}'>{ for $n score $s in $doc//*[text() contains text 'cezanne'] return <hit score='{$s}'>{ $n }</hit> }</document> In this query I get the number of hits of all documents in the repository. Thanks in advance! Regards, Wiard
