Re: [basex-talk] command script / batch-processing of xqueries

Hello Farbrice,

thanks for your advice and the tipps. They are really helpful. With memory-overflow I have to see, what happens ;)

Best regards, Günter

Hello Günter,

You do can run several xquery files in a single command script with a syntax like this :

<commands> <xquery>...</xquery> <xquery>...</xquery> <xquery>...</xquery> <xquery>...</xquery> </commands>

IMHO Xquery scripts are like transactions, You might overflow memory if you put all your updating functions in a single huge transaction. And in can remember db:create being executed after db:add, so your Pending update list might be meaningless at the end :

Hello Fabrice,

thanks for the info. Did see the SET, but didn't notice http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Options#Create_Options

...

You can use several XQUERY or RUN commands,

I'd like to run a lot of existing XQuery-files (where dbs are created and updated) with ONE command.

Perhaps I should define a new xq with xi:include the others and RUN this one file?

Thanks again, Günter

Hello Günter,

Did you have a look at

http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Commands#Command_Scripts

You can use several XQUERY or RUN commands, and the SET command to configure the db or index options.

Hi all, hi Christian,

I'm running some xqueries to create and update basex dbs over and over again. They all depend on the basic db 'mydata'. Whenever mydata is updated, I have to update the other dbs.

1. xq-file: db:create('mydata', path/to/my/xml .....
2. xq-file: db:create('searchindex', let $data0 := db:open('mydata') .....
3. xq-file: db:create('indd-xml', let $data0 := db:open('mydata')....
4. and so on

First question: Is there any way to put the whole process into one command-script? Or is there any kind of other batch-processing?

Second question: So far I'm creating the db 'mydata' with the GUI. I want to integrate the creating into the batch-processing via XQuery. In generell I know the create-command, but where to put the options: use XInclude, chop-whitespace OFF and Fulltext Language German internal, Stemming OFF, Case Sensitive and Diacritics ON? Can't find it in the docs.

Thanks for any help,

Günter
