Re: [basex-talk] update expression
by Ioannis Kavvouras 22 Jul '14

22 Jul '14

Hello, I've tried to use the update expression (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Updates#update) in basex releases after 7.8, but it always throws the exception: --- code --- - XQJQS001 - Invalid XQuery syntax, syntax does not pass static validation. - Root Cause: - net.xqj.basex.bin.bx: Encountered " <QNameToken> "update "" -------------- I try to run the simple xquery: for $ft in /server return $ft update delete node $ft/formal Regards Yannis PS: the copy expression cannot be used inside a for loop , is it?

by nguyen my 22 Jul '14

Hello all. I have a problem I have a document : <otx xmlns="http://iso.org/OTX/1.0.0" xmlns:math=" http://iso.org/OTX/1.0.0/Math"> <..> </otx> I want to add more namespace to the otx tag. I use a query is: declare default element namespace "http://iso.org/OTX/1.0.0"; for $otx in collection()/otx return replace node $otx with <otx xmlns="http://iso.org/OTX/1.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xmime="http://www.w3.org/2005/05/xmlmime" xmlns:diag="http://iso.org/OTX/1.0.0/DiagCom" xmlns:quant="http://iso.org/OTX/1.0.0/Quantities" xmlns:event="http://iso.org/OTX/1.0.0/Event" ... > {$otx/@*} { $otx/metaData, $otx/specification,$otx/adminData,$otx/imports, $otx/declarations, $otx/validities, $otx/signatures, for $p in $otx/procedures let $r:= $p/realisation return $p } </otx> but it run very slow if the database is pretty largely. Please help me for a best solution. Thanks so much!

Ripple of effect of db corruption
by France Baril 19 Jul '14

19 Jul '14

Hi, In the end of May we had issue with a BaseX release that was corrupting our DBs. We were able to identify this pattern: 1) Update/insert @status on the root element of multiple files. Eveything seems fine here, but something occured that made the DB unstable. We can read data without problem. 2) Change the status a second time, DBs gets corrupted. We didn't track all operations that occured during that period, but now that we are running a new translation process. We are updating the various language DBs and we are ovewhelmed by corrupted DBs. We thought we had rolled back all the problematic DBs, and apparently we missed some as issues are popping here and there. I am writing with the hope that you remember an issue with the end of May release and that you can send details on tracking issues before they show up and/or know of a way to resolve the issue before the second run of updates. Rolling back means that we lose a full run of translation and we have nearly 30 languages, which means 30 DBs, so it's not a small job to roll them back and run translation again. And once a DB is corrupted, I can't even open it. Any clue would help. Thanks, France -- France Baril Architecte documentaire / Documentation architect france.baril(a)architextus.com

internal database format changes between 7.X and 8.0 versions
by Fabrice Etanchaud 19 Jul '14

19 Jul '14

Dear all @BaseX, We are currently in the process of reloading a huge volume of data (about 47 Go of zipped xml), And wondering if we can safely do that in the 8.0 beta version. I heard format will change with the 8.0 version. If we stay with the 7.9 version, will OPTIMIZE ALL upgrade the format (or any other way to do so) ? Best regards, Fabrice Questel/Orbit

JSON or JSONML output formatting
by Zachary Pride 16 Jul '14

16 Jul '14

Hello, I've been playing with BaseX lately and all-in-all am very impressed. Something I'm wrestling with however is the JSON output options. I've got various web applications that would really be simplified by receiving JSON straight away for the obvious scripting benefits. The JSON method has been giving me a lot of grief, stipulating rules I'm not sure how to follow. right now I have an element that "is typed as string and cannot be nested." I've been able to get JSONML to output but the JSON is this morass of nested Arrays... Attributes seem to get transformed into Objects but elements/tags and their values are pushed into Arrays for some rationale - which I suppose is on purpose. My question is how can I get Objects for simple key:value properties from <tag>value</tag> 's. Are there options I'm not utilizing? Would it be feasible to transform the XML output to some middle form first - setting it up to become Objects, before serializing it to JSON? Thanks!

Cannot get MIXUPDATES working
by Marc van Grootel 15 Jul '14

15 Jul '14

This is with basex 7.9 on Windows I am trying to get (RESTXQ) queries to run with MIXUPDATES. I tried adding MIXUPDATES = true to each of the sections in the .basex file. For all but the last section (# Local Options) the MIXUPDATES line would be deleted upon startup of basexhttp.bat So if I would add the line to the top under # General Options and then start the http server I would get: >basexhttp -d C:/apps/basex/.basex: Unknown option 'MIXUPDATES'. C:/apps/basex/.basex: writing new configuration file. DEBUG: true PASSWORD: admin USER: admin DEBUG: true WEBPATH: F:\home\data\basex\webapp BaseX 7.9 [Server] Server was started (port: 1984) HTTP Server was started (port: 8984) When I put it under # Local Options it won't complain but it won't pick up MIXUPDATES so my queries still fail. >basexhttp -d DEBUG: true PASSWORD: admin USER: admin DEBUG: true WEBPATH: F:\home\data\basex\webapp BaseX 7.9 [Server] Server was started (port: 1984) HTTP Server was started (port: 8984) Am I doing something wrong here? --Marc

Re: [basex-talk] Understanding the DBLocking mechanism

Hi, ok - guess I need to dig deeper into constraints of a "two phase commit" then... So, when using the core-API in embedded mode, the preferred way would be to create a new Thread per query - somewhat like the ClientListener does in server mode?

Understanding the DBLocking mechanism
by Maximilian Gärber 14 Jul '14

14 Jul '14

Hi, while trying to understand the locking internals I stumbled over DBLocking.java#L106 (in core) which throws an Exception when the same thread tries to get a lock again. The Java documentation states that ReentrantReadWriteLock should be able to handle this [1], are there any extra-conditions that make this neccessary? Regards, Max [1] "The method will return immediately if the current thread already owns the lock." http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/locks/Reentra… http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/locks/Reentra…

JSON output in PHP client
by Paul Swennenhuis 11 Jul '14

11 Jul '14

I've been playing a bit with BaseX the last couple of days - and very excited about the product while doing so - but now I am having problems outputting JSON from a PHP script. I have this XQuery: declare option output:method "json"; declare option output:json "format=jsonml"; <json type="object"> { for $user in collection("saveresult")//user[_id="1f2cda8f-a18a-44ba-8d17-73626d472306"] return <testResults> <testId>{$user/test/_id}</testId> <grade>{$user/user_info/user_grade}</grade> </testResults> } </json> In the BaseX GUI this yields: ["json", {"type":"object"}, ["testResults", ["testId", ["_id", "Bio-1"]], ["grade", ["user_grade", "7"]]], ["testResults", ["testId", ["_id", "Bio-2"]], ["grade", ["user_grade", "1"]]]] Which is what I expected after reading about the JSONML format. (Not too happy with that format, but that's another story). Running exactly the same XQuery form within a PHP script however yields this: <json type="object"> <testResults> <testId> <_id>Bio-1</_id> </testId> <grade> <user_grade>7</user_grade> </grade> </testResults> <testResults> <testId> <_id>Bio-2</_id> </testId> <grade> <user_grade>1</user_grade> </grade> </testResults> </json> (script is attached; note that the $ signs have been escaped there so that PHP will not try to evaluate them) In other words, the result is being output as XML with an enclosing <json> root tag, not as JSON. What is happening here? And how can I have BaseX return JSON from PHP? Paul Swennenhuis
