Re: [basex-talk] Database specific xquery modules

Hi Luke,

It isn't clear to me how RESTXQ helps with this.

Here is a (very minimal) example how an XQuery endpoint could look like:

declare %rest:path('{$db}/{$query}') function rest:execute( $db as xs:string, $query as xs:string ) { xquery:eval( xs:anyURI($db || '/' || $query), map { '': db:open($db) } ) };

One endpoint for all databases would suffice indeed.

Extending the semantics of our REST API would be another option, but we may need to clarify various questions (will there be an extra server directory for each database? What happens if people want to access both global and database-specific queries? etc).

Hope this helps, Christian
