…great, that was perfectly easy to reproduce.
If the EXPORT command is used, an alternative option needs to be used … And it’s called EXPORTER [1]. The following script should do the job:
SET CHOP false SET EXPORTER indent=no,omit-xml-declaration=no CREATE DB oshb-morphology morphhb/wlc RUN xquery/oshb-use-qere.xq EXPORT out/oshb
Some notes (just ignore those that you are already aware of, or that may not matter to you):
• If the options are specified in the script, the .basex file can be kept untouched • As the input files have an XML declaration, I have added the omit-xml-declaration parameter • DROP can be… skipped, as CREATE will remove an existing database • If the initial input is specified in the CREATE command, things will be slightly faster
I think we should merge the options SERIALIZER and EXPORTER in a future version of BaseX, as they have already been a source of confusion in the past.
I really appreciate all your help with this!
You are welcome! Christian

Sure. As I said, I am using these options in .basex:
CHOP = false SERIALIZER = indent=no
I am using data from the wlc subdirectory of this repo:
https://github.com/openscriptures/morphhb
Here is my .bxs file:
DROP DB oshb-morphology CREATE DB oshb-morphology ADD ./morphhb/wlc RUN ./xquery/oshb-use-qere.xq EXPORT ./out/oshb
This is the query (oshb-use-quere.xq):
declare default element namespace "http://www.bibletechnologies.net/2003/OSIS/namespace"; declare default function namespace "http://www.w3.org/2005/xquery-local-functions";
declare function local:get-ketiv($base, $catchword) { let $prev := $base/preceding-sibling::*[1] let $prevstring := fn:string($prev) where $prev and fn:ends-with($catchword, $prevstring) return ( $prev , if ($prevstring != $catchword) then get-ketiv($prev, fn:substring($catchword, 1, fn:string-length($catchword) - fn:string-length($prevstring))) else () ) };
declare updating function local:mark-ketiv($variant) { for $ketiv in get-ketiv($variant, $variant/catchWord) return ( delete node $ketiv/@type, insert node attribute type { fn:string-join(($ketiv/@type, "x-ketiv")," ") } into $ketiv ) };
let $oshb := db:open("oshb-morphology") for $verse in $oshb//verse[note[@type='variant']] for $variant in $verse/note[@type='variant'] return mark-ketiv($variant)
I really appreciate all your help with this!

Hi Jonathan,
Could you provide us with a little step-by-step description that allows us to reproduce your use case?
Thanks in advance, Christian

I tried adding these options to .basex:
# Local Options CHOP = false SERIALIZER = indent=no
It still seems to be putting elements on individual lines, as above, and not just for elements that have been modified. Is there a way to prevent this?

Hmmm, the original repo puts elements smack dab together on the same line to avoid whitespace issues, perhaps using CSS. When I do the update, it puts the updated elements on separate lines:
< <w lemma="1121 a" morph="HNcmsc" id="01PQe">בֶּן</w><seg type="x-maqqef">־</seg><w lemma="3967" morph="HAcbsa" id="01Exo">מֵאָ֥ה</w>

Yes, that is shorter and more readable. Thanks!
And if I don't have to worry about setting options, that's nicely convenient. Again, thanks!

Thanks, Jonathan, for the code snippet.

This statement should be completely safe, no matter which options you have set. If you want to avoid if/then/else, you can also do the following (but it’s not much shorter):
delete node $ketiv/@type, insert node attribute type { string-join(($ketiv/@type, "x-ketiv"), " ") } into $ketiv
