Collation in BaseX and Java
by Kristian Kankainen 06 Jul '16

06 Jul '16

Hello! In a lexicographic application I need a custom collation for ordering. The documentation for XML, Xquery and XSLT all somehow state that system available collations are to be used and all seem to support custom collations by specifying the URI. Is this possible also for custom created Java collators? I have been looking at the Java docs [1] and it looks easy enough for me, but I would like to get an affirmative from this list that it does work with BaseX. My initial guesses is that I'd need to package my collator class as a jar and install it in the Xquery module repository [2]. But how to use it from there I'm not sure. Is BaseX able to automatically use it correctly if I specify the correct URI as collation in the prolog "|declare| |default| |collation 'URI';|"? I'd me more than glad to write about it in the documentation/wiki if I get it working. Cheers! Kristian [1] http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/RuleBasedCollator.html [2] http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Repository

Remote IP access or configuration tweak?
by Chris Speare 05 Jul '16

05 Jul '16

I have BaseX installed and running happily on my desktop and trying to connect from java on my laptop to port 1984 (unchanged). Using the web interface (http://192.168.17.28:8984/dba/login) works happily enough, however I just get "connect timed out" when using the java API. I can't see anything in the config that indicate I need to "enable" remote access (unlike MySQL which only binds to localhost initially), so I was expecting this to just "work out the box".

Rounding Issue
by prasad gavhane 04 Jul '16

04 Jul '16

Hi, I am using BaseX 8.4.3. I found some discriminating results while executing following query in two different ways : Query : round(((( $V1 * $V2 )+( $V3 * $V4 )+( $V5 * $V6 ))div( $V1 + $V3 + $V5 ))*10000) div 10000 1. Type 1 (standalone values) let $V1 := 1500000000 let $V2 := 0.0926 let $V3 := 1000000000 let $V4 := 0.082 let $V5 := 500000000 let $V6 := 0.0931 let $V7 := 0.0892 return round(((( $V1 * $V2 )+( $V3 * $V4 )+( $V5 * $V6 ))div( $V1 + $V3 + $V5 ))*10000) div 10000 Output : 0.0892 2 : Type 2 (values from input xml attached in this mail - val.xml) let $V1 := data/V1 let $V2 := data/V2 let $V3 := data/V3 let $V4 := data/V4 let $V5 := data/V5 let $V6 := data/V6 let $V7 := data/V7 return round(((( $V1 * $V2 )+( $V3 * $V4 )+( $V5 * $V6 ))div( $V1 + $V3 + $V5 ))*10000) div 10000 Output : 0.0891 Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Prasad Gavhane.

Starting multiple sessions in BaseX with Perl: compilation failed at Carp.pm
by Bram Vanroy | KU Leuven 30 Jun '16

30 Jun '16

Hi there BaseX people! Original post on StackOverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38086358/starting-multiple-sessions-in-ba sex-with-perl-compilation-failed-at-carp-pm I wanted to see if I could start multiple BaseX sessions (on a single server) to try some things out, but I can't even get the sessions to launch - heck, I can't even get the Perl script to compile! This is odd to me, because the same code works perfectly without multiple sessions. Let's say I have a subroutine that creates sessions given an amount. E.g. the following code would create 3 sessions (variables for dbhost, user and password left out): CreateSessions(3); # For testing my $session = $sessions[0]; sub CreateSessions { my ($amountofsessions) = @_; our @sessions = (); for (my $i = 0; $i < $amountofsessions; $i++) { my $session = Session->new($dbhost, 1950, $usr, $pw); push(@sessions, $session); } } I also tried other approaches, e.g. creating each session individually and assigning it to a variable, and then building an array with these variables. The same problem occurs: Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/perl5/Carp.pm line 33. When I look up that file and that line, it states: eval { require Carp::Heavy }; Which, I guess, means that I don't have the Carp module installed? But I do not understand why I would need this, and why that the Perl script works when I only create one session. Is it possible to launch multiple sessions from Perl that can work simultaneously, and if so, how do you launch these sessions and access them? It's important to note that in PHP, for another project but the same database, having multiple sessions does work. In other words, there I can have multiple sessions that run in parallel. We're on BaseX 7.9 and Perl 5.10.1. (Old, I know, but I can't change it.) Thank you for your time! Bram

How to cite BaseX
by Kristian Kankainen 29 Jun '16

29 Jun '16

Hello! I'm writing an article about my work on retro-digitizing a dictionary. The work has been a very enjoyable process using BaseX and Xquery since an original XML of the printed dictionary could be retrieved from the print files. If some one else on this list has experience of similar work, I'd be glad to read about it. Now to my question: How should I cite BaseX? I can't find it in the wiki nor on the main publications page... Best regards Kristian

unexpected whitespace-handling behavior in BaseX 8.3.1
by C. M. Sperberg-McQueen 28 Jun '16

28 Jun '16

I am experiencing unexpected behavior with a database I am working with in BaseX 8.3.1. The database is a collection of information about trials in the late Roman Republic (see http://tlrr.blackmesatech.com/ for more information), and while the upper-level elements have only element content, most of the actual data values are mixed content. I reloaded the data the other day, having run some cleanup processes on it to regularize the whitespace and make the XML source more readable. In one trial record, for example, the information about the defendant looks like this: <defGrp> <defendant> <namelist> <person-entry> <person pid="pSulpicius58Ser.Galba" ix="2" form="Sulpicius (+58), Ser. Galba" >Ser. Sulpicius Galba (58)</person> cos. 144 spoke pro se (ORF 19.II, III)</person-entry> </namelist> </defendant> </defGrp> (This says that the defendant in the case was one Servius Sulpicius Galba, whose biography is given as the 58th entry under "Galba" in the Pauly/Wissowa Reallexikon, that this man was consul in 144 BC, that he spoke on his own behalf, and that the extant fragments of his speech are printed in the collection Oratorum Romanorum Fragmenta (ORF) as items 19.II and 19.III.) After a little research, I learned (I think) how to make the default settings for the database have the value CHOP = false (I call db:create($dbname,(),(), map{ "chop": false{}) to create the db), and also (redundantly, I hope) to specify CHOP = false as an option on the db:add() and db:replace() calls I am using to reload records in the database. When the web front end retrieves the individual trial record whose defendant information is shown above, I get a result that looks essentially like what is shown above. When a different query retrieves just portions of the trial record, using the expression <trial id="{$e/@id}" tlrr1="{$e/@tlrr1}" doc="{document-uri(root($e))}">{ $e/date, $e/ccGrp, $e/defGrp(: /defendant :), $e/ppGrp(: /prosecutor :), $e/partiesGrp, $e/advGrp }</trial> the defendant information looks like this, according to both Safari and Opera: <defGrp> <defendant> <namelist> <person-entry> <person pid="pSulpicius58Ser.Galba" ix="2" form="Sulpicius (+58), Ser. Galba">Ser. Sulpicius Galba (58)</person>cos. 144 spokepro se(ORF19.II, III)</person-entry> </namelist> </defendant> </defGrp> Note that within the person-entry element, the whitespace adjacent to the 'person' and 'i' elements has disappeared. It looks almost as if some queries were stripping whitespace as part of the query, or as part of returning a result. To confuse me even further, dynamic queries using the dba application on the server return data with the whitespace chopped. Is there something obvious I am overlooking or doing wrong? Actually, I guess i have two questions: first, I'd like to figure out why BaseX is currently behaving as it does. And then I'd like to make it behave differently. I realize now that the documents I just updated all had xml:space="preserve" on their root elements, because I couldn't make this work last time I tried, either. I would much much rather avoid resorting to that again, if I can, since it feels like a hack and it complicates processing of the data. I will try to construct a minimum repeatable example that illustrates the problem, but I have not done so yet. thanks for any help anyone on the list can provide, Michael -- **************************************************************** * C.

storing passwords ...
by C. M. Sperberg-McQueen 26 Jun '16

26 Jun '16

Can any readers of this list recommend some reasonably prudent technique for handling passwords that an XQuery module will need to retrieve things via http? I suppose there are two questions: (1) where do people store such userid/password pairs? and (2) what's the best way to use them? For storing, it has occurred to me that I can: - hard-code them in the XQuery source - store them in an admin-info document in the XQuery database and look them up when needed - don't store them at all but require the request to pass them in as parameters (which offloads the burden of storing these things onto the client) The simplest way to use them is of course to inject them into the URL, but I recall being warned that this means they can show up in logs, so it's not a recommended practice. Probably it is better to use http:send-request() with username and password specified as attributes on the http:request method; anyone who can confirm or deny this, please do. I will be grateful for any and all guidance. -- **************************************************************** * C. M.

basex function on db:store
by Wang, Genneva 24 Jun '16

24 Jun '16

Hi Basex guru, I understand that db:store and db:replace would replace the file for if the path already exist, I’m wondering if there is any other functions that would do the check on the path and provides an error code if path exists instead of just replace it ? Or do we need to check this specifically with db:exist ? Thanks! Regards, -Genneva

BaseX performance issue
by Wang, Yvonne 22 Jun '16

22 Jun '16

Hi BaseX team, We currently encountered performance issue using BaseX. We noticed that when # of documents increased in BaseX database, it will double time to retrieve documents in database. Our test cases execution time double when # of documents increased from 200 to 400. And If number of document reach to 5000, The test case execution time increase much more. Is that any performance testing BaseX team can share with us to compare, or there is any documentation or suggestion for BaseX database turning that we should follow? Thanks Yvonne

Dear members, I need to know if the prototypes described here [1] are available at BaseX package. Using the lastest version, I can distribute the database and queries with HTTP/REST functions in a collection, but I don't know how to execute a parallel query on a single document database replicated in N nodes of a cluster. My main idea is to reduce the total query time using only BaseX implementation (or any lib compatible).

Validate module and catalogs
by France Baril 20 Jun '16

20 Jun '16

I created an entire process for my xquery to read a catalog that is built from multiple catalogs (<nextCatalog/>) so I can find the correct schema to validate my XML topics based on the schema reference (My XML files don't all use the same schemas) <topic xmlns:xsi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xml:lang="en-us" class="- topic/topic " xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation=" urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:psd:ditabase.xsd:1.3", only to discover that once I have my schema and validate:xsd-info($doc, $xsd), it can't be processed because the main .xsd uses references that also require the catalog: <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:ditaarch=" http://dita.oasis-open.org/architecture/2005/" elementFormDefault= "qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">  <xs:include schemaLocation=" urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:abbreviateDomain.xsd:1.3"/> <xs:include schemaLocation= "urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:deliveryTargetAttDomain.xsd:1.3"/> <xs:include schemaLocation= "urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:equationDomain.xsd:1.3"/> <xs:include schemaLocation= "urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:hazardDomain.xsd:1.3"/> <xs:include schemaLocation= "urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:psd:highlightDomain.xsd:1.3"/> My question is: Is it worth it for me to keep going with my ugly parse/replace + export game or is BaseX going to support validate:xsd-info($doc, $catalog) soon? If so how soon? Also, any chance we can keep the DOCTYPE and allow the same type of validation with DTDs? Ya, I know, I'm pushing my luck... but I have to ask because some clients cannot move to schemas. -- France Baril Architecte documentaire / Documentation architect france.baril(a)architextus.com

client:connect reference to DB or storage in RAM (loss in performance?)
by Kapoor, Sumit 20 Jun '16

20 Jun '16

Hello, the Question is: If I open a connection, send a query and close the connection: What do I get? Just a Copy of the Database which will be stored in the core/main memory or a reference to the DB? Here a Code Example: let $cid := client:connect("localhost",port,"user","password") let $query := 'collection("BIG-DB")/*:node' let $req := client:query($cid,$query) let $close := client:close($cid) return $req If it's just a copy in the main memory than (depends on the size oft he DB) it will cost a lot of performance. We have to use such a workaround with "client:connect" because if we try to access directly the DB more than once it will be blocked. So do you have any experience with the return value of "$req" ? Is it still a reference of the DB or is it stored in the main memory?

Re: [basex-talk] Detect if the database is open
by Christian Grün 19 Jun '16

19 Jun '16

I had a look at the actual BaseX sources, and I saw that OPEN is extremely fast if your database is already opened (it boils down to a simple name equality test). Obviously you should only use it if the addressed database already exists. If you want to have a single operation for opening and updating documents, XQuery (with db:add and db:replace) is probably the best solution. Am 20.06.2016 1:03 vorm. schrieb "Kendall Shaw" <kendall.shaw(a)workday.com>: Right now I am just adding or removing documents and executing queries. So, I imagine the time it takes to run CHECK is insignificant. But, if I am going to reuse code, then using the technique of always running CHECK before every operation seem like it might not be the best thing to do. Similarly assuming that my code elsewhere is correctly opening the database and setting a variable to say “isOpen” before it is needed also doesn’t seem like the best idea. But, I gather using CHECK all the time is the typical way to do this. So, I will do that. I thought of CHECK as create or open, it didn’t occur to me that it would optionally open.

Detect if the database is open

19 Jun '16

Using ClientSession from java, I do this to check if the database is open: try { replace(somewhere, new ArrayInput(bytes)); } catch (IOException e) { String msg = e.getMessage(); if (msg == null || !msg.contains(“No database opened”)) throw e; execute(new Check(databaseName)); replace(somewhere, new ArrayInput(bytes)); } Is there a better way to detect if the database is open than testing the exception message text?

CACHERESTXQ always false with basexhttp
by Mathieu 19 Jun '16

19 Jun '16

Hi, I'm trying to activate CACHERESTXQ option while launching from "basexhttp". If I start only "basexserver", CACHERESTXQ value is successfully read it from my .basex configuration file and applied. From the client, "get CACHERESTXQ" return true. If launched from "basexhttp" (see logs below), it read the good value while launching basexhttp. It then start itself the server part. And what's strange, is that the debug show again CACHERESTXQ variable but this time setted to false. Am I doing something wrong? Should this option be set in another way? jetty.xml? Thanks for your help.

Geo Module Help

I have some XML files with geographical data. I can see they are using "http://www.opengis.net/gml/3.2" for the gml namespace. If I try to run some geo functions I get the error: [experr:GEO0001] Unrecognized Geo type: Point If I change the gml namespace to "http://www.opengis.net/gml" it runs fine. I don't know if it has to be fixed on the data level or it is something that BaseX needs to take care of. It's my first time I have to deal with XML geo data, so I'm clueless at the moment. Any thoughts? Thanks
