This page is part of the [[Getting Started]] Section.
The full distributions of BaseX are equipped with a simple powerful browser-based database administration interface, the '''DBA'''. It allows you to create and administrate databases, evaluate queries in realtime, view log files and , manage users, etc. The server-side code is completely written in [[XQuery]] and [[RESTXQ]].
These were our design goals:
* The code base is supposed to help and motivate you developing your own RESTXQ web applications.
* The whole XQuery DBA code consumes only around 100 KB. It uses very simple backward-compatible Javascript code that should run with nearly every browser. The interface is functional, but limited in terms of flashiness and interactivity.
* We tried to make the DBA features as self-explanatory as possible. All functionalities are also available via [[Commands]], [[Module Library|XQuery Modules]] or the Java [[GUI]].
* The {{Code|dba}} sub-directory can simply be copied and moved to any other place. All URL paths point to the same directory; it should be straightforward to adjust the RESTXQ path.
Please be aware that it is an obvious '''security risk''' if If you simply put DBA online along with your web page. At , please ensure at the very least, that:* you should change the DBA path and have changed the password of the your BaseX {{Code|admin}} user!, and The DBA * the BaseX process has just not been released, and it is in beta stage.We are looking forward to your reports and feature requests! Patches and extensions are even more welcomestarted with admin privileges.
=Startup=
=First Steps=
On the welcome page, you will need to authenticate yourself by entering a username the name and passwordof an admin user. The default user is {{Code|admin}}/{{Code|admin}}; after the first login, it the password should be changed in via the Users panel. By specifying a host and port, you can communicate with a remote BaseX server instance. If you keep the field empty, you will be connected to the local BaseX instance.

In the editor panel, you can execute XQuery expressions. If evaluation takes too long, or if it consumes too much memory, it will be interrupted. You need to choose if your query is updating. Inside the editor area, you can press Ctrl-Enter to execute the query.
Since {{Version|8.4}}, you You can press Shift-Ctrl-Enter to run your XQuery expression as updating query (or non-updating, if "Updating" is choosen in the dropdown menu). The realtime mode was removed.
