Hi Emmanuel,

At some point BaseX was changed so that variables must be declared.
Now you must declare the variables used in the template. I do this see [1]

This loses the advantages of the templates being XML but otherwise works fine.

Hi,

I’ve been trying to use the templating proposed by Andy Bunce here
http://cubeb.blogspot.fr/2012/11/xquery-templating-engines-and-txq.html
https://mailman.uni-konstanz.de/pipermail/basex-talk/2012-November/004209.html

I’ve tried with txq module in different ways. But, I can’t figure out why I couldn’t reproduce it.
Here is the simpler exemple I’ve tried :

In the webapp folder an xml file, named `view1.xml` wich contains :
```xml
<div>{map:get($map, 'greeting')}</div>
```

In webapp a restxq file with :

```xquery

module namespace test = 'test.test';
import module namespace xquery = "http://basex.org/modules/xquery";

declare function test:render($template as xs:string, $map as map(*)){
   xquery:invoke($template,$map)
};

declare %restxq:path('/test')
        %restxq:GET
function test:test(){
  let $map := map{ "greeting" : "hello",
                   "who": "world"}
  return test:render('view1.xml', $map )
};
```

Arrêté à /Users/emmanuelchateau/Documents/basex/webapp/view1.xq, 1/15:
[XPST0008] Undefined variable $map.


I’m running BaseX version 7.9
Is there still anybody with this kind of templating running ?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Emmanuel
