Bonjour France,

Didn’t you find Updindex and autooptimize options in the ‘Options’  panel of the db creation window ?

Db:create last parameter is the place to put all your options :

http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module#db:create

But the Pending update list may overflow memory during db creation/update.

You should definitively have a look at the BaseX Scripts (BXS).

You can declare a batch of commands in XML, and ask BaseX to run it :

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

This is the way to set options before invoking the CREATE-DB command :

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

I usually write XQuery to generate a BXS that will do the job.

Cordialement,

Fabrice

Objet : [basex-talk] Options for creating database...

Hi, I usually create dbs using the gui. I'm now trying to create asb without it to be able to set the updindex and autooptimize options, which I can't find in the GUI. 

I couldn't figure how to set them out using db:create either, so I switch to command line.  Now I'm feeling dumb, I can't find how to set up parsing/indexing options for the command line. I'm looking at: http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Command-Line_Options. I found -sindent and -wchop only.

What am I missing?

Here are all the options that I'd want to set:

let $options := map:merge((
map:entry("CHOP", false()),
map:entry('INDENT', false()),
map:entry('STRIPNS', false()),
map:entry('INTPARSE', true()),
map:entry('DTD', false()),
map:entry('XINCLUDE', false()),
map:entry('UPDINDEX', true()),
map:entry('AUTOOPTIMIZE', true())
   ))

I don't want to set UPDINDEX and AUTOOPTIMIZE in .basex because I only want them to be true() on one of my DBs. Other DBs should remain as is.
