BaseX 6.5.1 - BaseXGUI - error in Manage/Restore when database name contains hyphens
by Fabrice Etanchaud 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Dear all, It seems there is an error in the BaseXGUI/Manage/Restore menu when restoring a dabase whose name contains hyphens. Changing hyphens to underscores solves the problem. Maybe because hyphen was chosen as information separator in the backup filename (mydbname-2011-01-31-11-54-20.zip). best regards, Fabrice Etanchaud Senior Software Engineer CT Corsearch / Edital, a Wolters Kluwer business Berkenlaan 1 1831 Diegem Belgium <skype:fabrice.etanchaud?call> skype:fabrice.etanchaud Get Skype <http://www.skype.com/go/download> and call me for free. fetanchaud(a)edital.com <mailto:fetanchaud@edital.com> <http://www.edital.com/> www.edital.com (website) <http://www.ctcorsearch.com/> www.ctcorsearch.com (website) Confidentiality Notice: This email and its attachments (if any) contain confidential information of the sender.

Problems using Python API and resolution (RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded)
by Jan Vlčinský (CAD) 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Hi I was trying to use new Python API, looking forward to use binding variables, but all my calls were failing File "D:\var\projects\BaseXFilter\TomTom\BaseXClient.py", line 96, in receive return self.receive() File "D:\var\projects\BaseXFilter\TomTom\BaseXClient.py", line 96, in receive return self.receive() File "D:\var\projects\BaseXFilter\TomTom\BaseXClient.py", line 96, in receive return self.receive() File "D:\var\projects\BaseXFilter\TomTom\BaseXClient.py", line 96, in receive return self.receive() File "D:\var\projects\BaseXFilter\TomTom\BaseXClient.py", line 95, in receive self.init() RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded I compared old and new version of BaseXClient.py and noticed, that old calls readString() were changed to receive() And on line 96 is call to self.receive() inside of class method receive() so never ending call is here. Renaming receive call to readString as it used to be resolved the problem. Attached is corrected Python file. If you want to call it as usual, you shall rename it to BaseXClient.py Jan -- *Ing.

Re: [basex-talk] DB comuni
by Christian Grün 30 Jan '11

Hi Pablo (cc to the mailing list), sorry for the long delay; here's finally my detailed answer. I spent some time in revising the "AnyAllOptions" (any word, all words, phrase, ...), and I noticed that not all combinations delivered the expected scoring results. The issue should now be solved; feel free to tell me if you need a jar build of the latest build; or check out the latest version from the repository. > Hello Christian, thanks por you prompt response. Enclosed I > send you the Comuni file for Italy, that we use to perform the math of > others 32000, with the final purpose of validate its. > […] Thanks for reporting on your usage scenario. One way to speed up your queries might be to create a full-text index (note, however, that the AnyAllOptions are not supported by the index). The improved performance gain after the first call, which you observed, might be due to the caching of results. To get better performance, I'd recommend to switch to the client/server architecture of BaseX. Apart from that, it's difficult to give you general guidelines on how to handle your amounts of data. Some questions might have to be answered first, such as… – do you plan to store the data and perform repeated queries, or will you just process it once/on the fly? – what's the total size of your XML documents? how many documents/XML snippets will you look at? Hope this helps, Christian

Actually, no. Your previous email was pure genius and worked beautifully. Thank you very much! My base file for starting up the db now looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE content [ <!ENTITY % HTMLlat1 SYSTEM "file:///var/www/xxx/content/entities/xhtml-lat1.ent"> %HTMLlat1; <!ENTITY % HTMLsymbol SYSTEM "file:///var/www/xxx/content/entities/xhtml-symbol.ent"> %HTMLsymbol; <!ENTITY % HTMLspecial SYSTEM "file:///var/www/xxx/content/entities/xhtml-special.ent"> %HTMLspecial; ]> <data/> I create the DB thus: session.execute("CREATE DATABASE data /var/www/xxx/data.xml") session.execute("CREATE INDEX TEXT") session.execute("CREATE INDEX FULLTEXT") session.execute("CREATE INDEX ATTRIBUTE") I open it like this: session.execute("SET CHOP off") session.execute("SET INTPARSE on") session.execute("SET PATHINDEX on") session.execute("SET TEXTINDEX on") session.execute("SET ATTRINDEX on") session.execute("SET FTINDEX on") session.execute("SET WILDCARDS on") session.execute("SET DIACRITICS on") Now I find that I can insert the output from TinyMCE like this: insert node <remark id='1'> <name>My Remark</name> <content>  Does  —  this  —  work? </content> </remark> into /data/remarks And it works perfectly!

There must be a configuration option that will tell TinyMCE to serialize numerical entities. It turns out that they actually put some effort in creating the named entities: see the list on [1]. Indeed, there is such an option: [2] So you'll have to find out where tinyMCE.init() is called (if nowhere then maybe just add this call in a script tag on the page that invokes TinyMCE?

In response to the question below, yes, I could do a replace on the string and exchange   for  , but then what would I do about the hundred-plus *other* character entity references? Like ” or —? TinyMCE uses the HTML entity references and there are lots of them. I can't rewrite TinyMCE, and searching and replacing for all of these is going to be a bear. There must be some way to get the parser to accept the HTML entities. I intend to create a DTD for my data anyway, and I can simply include the HTML entities in that.

Parsing entities
by Charles F. Munat 28 Jan '11

28 Jan '11

I'm having trouble using XHTML generated by TinyMCE in a BaseX database. I get the error: The entity "nbsp" was referenced, but not declared. OK, I understand that it doesn't parse entities automatically. I need to add a DTD. So I have a setup like this: In a file called catalog.xml: <?xml version="1.0"?> <catalog prefer="system" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"> <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/" rewritePrefix="file:///var/www/xxx/content/dtds/" /> </catalog> In /var/www/xxx/content/dtds/ I have a file called xhtml1-strict.dtd which is exactly what it says it is (downloaded from the W3C). Now I need to add the DOCTYPE to my database. But how? I create this database via a web interface using Vaadin (a bunch of forms, tables, etc. Then I just do XQuery inserts, deletes, etc. There are no XML documents. It's all done piecemeal. My root node is <data>. Some of my nodes have a <content> node that contains XHTML: <data> <remarks> <remark id='1'> <name>Test Remark</name> <content> This contains a   non-breaking space! </content> </remark> </remarks> </data> How do I add the DTD? How do I indicate that it should be applied to the contents of the <content> node only? How can I do that without adding namespaces to all the XHTML tags? Can anyone provide a brief example? By the way, when I connect to the database I do this: val session = new ClientSession("localhost", 1984, "admin", "x") session.setOutputStream(System.out) session.execute("SET CATFILE /var/www/xxx/catalog.xml") session.execute("SET CHOP off") session.execute("SET INTPARSE on") session.execute("SET ENTITY on") session.execute("SET PATHINDEX on") session.execute("SET TEXTINDEX on") session.execute("SET ATTRINDEX on") session.execute("SET FTINDEX on") session.execute("SET WILDCARDS on") session.execute("SET DIACRITICS on") session.execute("INFO") Thanks!

BaseX in Cocoon?
by Joachim Wackerow 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

Hello, Does anybody has experience in using BaseX in the Cocoon framework? Currently I'm using eXist with Cocoon (by the XML:DB protocol). I would be interested to use BaseX with Cocoon. Now I'm wondering if anybody tried this and can give me some hints.

Options to convert coordinates from S-JTSK to WGS84 by XQuery
by Jan Vlčinský (CAD) 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

Hi I am facing problem, that my XML data have coordinates in system S-JTSK (used a lot for area of Czech Republic) and resulting data must be in WGS84, as they will be used by Google Maps. Be sure, that the conversion is not trivial task (the other way is simpler, but S-JTSK to WGS84 is well known complexity) - so I am not sure, if writing complete conversion code by XQuery function itself is feasible. I can try do some conversion by other tools before I insert the XML or after I create resulting data - but elegant solution would accomplish this by XQuery. I know, that there are Java libs available for this (like GeoTools - http://geotools.org/). My question is: - is there any option to add more XQuery methods/functions written in Java to BaseX? Like the conversion function for coordinates? - It would go: add some JAR into class path - register it somehow and then be able to use it. - optionally writing some interface, which would make the jar available to BaseX XQuery processing. Any ideas what to do with my crazy wishes? With best regards Jan

Is there a function to retrieve a persistent unique node identifier from any given retrieved node? I thought it would be db:node-id($node) but that is returning '0'.

6.5 - org.basex.server : basex never returns
by Fabrice Etanchaud 25 Jan '11

25 Jan '11

Dear all, I get a very strange behaviour in client/server mode with the java binding (ckecked out from the repository). I wrote a little piece of code that never returns from the last command 'DROP DATABASE xxx' It ends up normally if you comment the query or if you change it to an iterative query. Please find the code below : Best regards import org.basex.server.*; import java.io.*; public class Test { public static final void main(String[] args) { try { ClientSession session = new ClientSession("localhost", 1984, "admin", "admin"); session.create("mydb", new ByteArrayInputStream("<Root1/>".getBytes("UTF-8"))); session.execute("OPEN mydb"); session.add("mydoc.xml", "/mypath", new ByteArrayInputStream("<Root2/>".getBytes("UTF-8"))); session.execute("DELETE /mypath/mydoc.xml"); String req = "for $i in collection() return base-uri($i)"; Query q = session.query(req); System.out.println(q.execute()); System.out.println(q.info()); q.close(); session.execute("CLOSE"); session.close(); session = new ClientSession("localhost", 1984, "admin", "admin"); session.execute("DROP DATABASE mydb"); session.close(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } Fabrice Etanchaud Senior Software Engineer CT Corsearch / Edital, a Wolters Kluwer business Berkenlaan 1 1831 Diegem Belgium <skype:fabrice.etanchaud?call> skype:fabrice.etanchaud Get Skype <http://www.skype.com/go/download> and call me for free. fetanchaud(a)edital.com <mailto:fetanchaud@edital.com> <http://www.edital.com/> www.edital.com (website) <http://www.ctcorsearch.com/> www.ctcorsearch.com (website) Confidentiality Notice: This email and its attachments (if any) contain confidential information of the sender.

external variables
by Imsieke, Gerrit, le-tex 24 Jan '11

24 Jan '11

I'm trying to pass a parameter to an xquery file whose first line reads: define variable $db as xs:string external How may I invoke the BaseX client so that the param will be passed to the query? Just saw in the 6.5 change log "[ADD] JAX-RX: bind external variables to query and run parameter". Does that mean that passing param is currently only available in the JAX-RX interface? Maybe you can parse the command line client invocation such that everything after the options and after a xquery file name is considered as param=value pairs? -Gerrit

Resolver/catalog: can't make it work
by Imsieke, Gerrit, le-tex 24 Jan '11

24 Jan '11

Dear Team (especially Michael), I'm trying to use an XML catalog during import (for the first time admittedly), but the catalog is obviously not being used. I tried to specify a full path in the GUI: c:/cygwin/home/gerrit/Apotheker/BaseX/catalog/catalog-win.xml I also tried to specify SET CATFILE on the command line, when the server was running and the GUI was off: basexclient -Uadmin -Padmin -c "SET CATFILE catalog/catalog-win.xml; set createfilter *.html; create database amt2; open amt2; add Apotheker/AMT" Took ages (never finished), which made me think that the resolver wasn't used. Switched off network connection. Received: Error: www.w3.org Since I was trying to import XHTML files, this is an indication that the catalog hasn't been used. Changed the CATFILE path to Apotheker/BaseX/catalog/catalog-win.xml (because the documents to be imported were apparently considered relative to my home dir or the current dir), to no avail. Also c:/cygwin/home/gerrit/Apotheker/BaseX/catalog/catalog-win.xml didn't work. Here's the server output: $ basexserver -di BaseX 6.5 [Server] Try "help" to get more information. > Creating Database... 62.02 ms (501 KB) Indexing Text... . 63.36 ms (588 KB) Indexing Attributes... . 66.02 ms (621 KB) Creating Database... java.io.IOException: www.w3.org java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(Unknown Source) ... Created a CatalogManager.properties in the CLASSPATH before starting the server. But it kept trying to connect to www.w3.org. Current catalog file looks like that: <?xml version="1.0"?> <catalog prefer="system" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"> <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/" rewritePrefix="file:///c:/cygwin/home/gerrit/Apotheker/schema/xhtml1/" /> </catalog> First HTML file that it is trying to import begins with: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8"/> There is a file xhtml1-strict.dtd in the local directory. Altering the catalog file so that it's not well-formed any more doesn't seem to impress the parser. So I think it is not being read, but without a warning. What did I do wrong? If we manage to solve this, you may want to insert an XML Catalog Howto into the documentation wiki.

Invalid arguments...

23 Jan '11

Just now I spent considerable time figuring out why I get a message like this: [FORG0006] Invalid arguments for com.avatar_reality.ai.OntologyManager.save(...) method. In case you're wondering, it doesn't have anything to do with invalid arguments. It prints this whenever anything is wrong. Anything. It could be the wrong arguments. Or the wrong method name. Or the wrong class-name. Or even better, nothing like that at all, just any uncaught exception thrown by the method (or the class-loader) will cause it to print this error. May kindly I suggest embedding the original cause in the error message? That would save a ton of time figuring out what exactly is the matter. Mark

BaseX 6.5
by Raymond Meester 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

I like 6.5 with the new tree visualization and commercial support. It's stabile and fast. Here is some feedback/feature requests for future development of BaseX: 1) Double click on the blue bar to get a full view (All other views are send to the background. When double clicking the other views appear again) 2) Put a close button on the blue bar 3) Folder view; add entry in the right-click menu to collapse in or out all nodes 4) Add support for intelligent xpath autocompletion in the search bar 5) Possibility in the right click menu to duplicate a node 6) Possibility to place a node in comment /uncomment 7) In text mode highlight a node when the cursor is standing on an opening or ending tag, so that the corresponding pair will be remark 8) Make "Enter" equal to double clicking when navigation in a xml 9) Option to show line numbers in text mode 10) Launch a xml in a browser, xml editor or IDE from the menu In the long run it would be nice to add 1) A XML Grid View (like xmlSpy or Stylus Studio) 2) XSD support for validating and generating schemas 3) XSLT support for transforming a xml db into another xml db and alternative query posibillities 4) Visualizing differences between two databases 5) Export xml to text, csv, xls, json etc 6) XQuery Documentation Generator (XQDoc Support) 7) Use colors to show structure of an xml in the visualization views (this option can be turned on and off) 8) Support for forms (Create forms as a front end for basex and distribute this together with the xml db as a jar file) 9) XML editing mode and read only mode (xacml) 10) Focus on support for adding thousands of xml files into one db Thanks, I will look forward to future releases Ray

Re: [basex-talk] Query corrupts my database - we shall be happy namespaces are there

2011/1/21 Mark Boon <mboon(a)blueplanetsoftware.com> > ...It looks like I got it working using *:Ontology. I must say I never > understood why namespaces must make things so complicated and > counterintuitive. > Hi Mark. Namespaces are a mean, which let you live in quite complex universe, where more spaces are intersecting. You may think of writting XQuery for $x from my_universe return the-thing-I-am-thinking-of($x) (Un)Fortunately, this function was not implemented yet :-) (Are you really sure, what would your thoughts return to you?) But back to intersecting space - if you think of it, you realize, it is very easy to pick up something wrong, or to miss something. And we shall be happy, that in our XML space those separate spaces have names, so we can be enough explicit in telling what we really want. OK, apart from philosophical thoughts, I have simple rules, which helped me using namespaces 1. prefixes are just temporary abbreviations for real namespaces (fully qualified) and the prefixes can change during single XML document 2. imagine, that all prefixes (including the empty one) are replaced by fully qualified namespace name (and you may get rid of xmlns: attribues as they become useless) So for <Traffic xmlns="myone" xmlns:openlr="http://www.openlr.org/openlr" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <openlr:OpenLR> <openlr:LocationID>defg123</openlr:LocationID> ...... </openlr:OpenLR> <OpenLR xmlns="http://www.openlr.org/openlr"> <LocationID>defg123</LocationID> </OpenLR> </Traffic> you get <myone:Traffic> <http://www.openlr.org/openlr:OpenLR> <http://www.openlr.org/openlr:LocationID>defg123</ http://www.openlr.org/openlr:LocationID> ...... </http://www.openlr.org/openlr:OpenLR> <http://www.openlr.org/openlr:OpenLR> <http://www.openlr.org/openlr:LocationID>defg123</ http://www.openlr.org/openlr:LocationID> </http://www.openlr.org/openlr:OpenLR> </myone:Traffic> This way it is perfectly clear, what namespaces are effective. I agree, namespaces are not easy to start with, but my feeling is, the complexity of namespace apparatus is balanced with complexity of the problem it should resolve. And once you get it - it will be clear and easy. Wish you the best. Jan

XQuery Globaler Zähler
by Burkert, Michael 21 Jan '11

21 Jan '11

Hallo ! Will man allen XML-Elementen eine eindeutige Zahl zuordnen, würde man das über einen globalen Zähler lösen. Die globalen Variablen in XQuery lassen sich offenbar nicht hochzählen. Hat XBase eine Lösung für dieses Problem ? Eine Art eigenen Namespace mit eigener Funktionalität ? Es wird zwar eine Funktion angeboten die ähnliches leistet functx:index-of-node( ... ) Nur bremst diese die Bearbeitung beträchtlich. Viele Grüße Michael
