This XQuery Module contains functions for handling session information on an HTTP request that has triggered the query. This module is mainly useful in the context of Web Applications.
Contents
Conventions
All functions in this module are assigned to the http://basex.org/modules/session
namespace, which must be dynamically imported. In this documentation, the namespace is bound to the session
prefix.
Functions
session:id
Signatures | session:id() as xs:string
|
Summary | Returns the session ID of a servlet request. |
Examples | The following RESTXQ function can be called via http://localhost:8984/restxq/id :
module namespace test = 'http://basex.org/examples/test'; import module namespace session = "http://basex.org/modules/session"; declare %restxq:path("/id") function test:id() { 'Session ID: ' || session:id() }; |
session:attribute
Signatures | session:attribute($key as xs:string) as xs:string? session:attribute($key as xs:string, $default as xs:string) as xs:string
|
Summary | Returns the value of an attribute bound to the current session, or an empty sequence if no value was bound. If the attribute does not exist, an empty sequence or the optionally specified default value is returned instead. |
Examples | The following RESTXQ function can e.g. be called via http://localhost:8984/restxq/get?key=user :
module namespace test = 'http://basex.org/examples/test'; import module namespace session = "http://basex.org/modules/session"; declare %restxq:path("/get") %restxq:query-param("key", "{$key}", "") function test:get($key) { 'Value of ' || $key || ': ' || session:attribute($key) }; |
session:update-attribute
Signatures | session:update-attribute($key as xs:string, $value as xs:string) as empty-sequence()
|
Summary | Assigns a value to a session attribute. |
Properties | The function is non-deterministic: evaluation order will be preserved by the compiler. |
Examples | The following RESTXQ function can e.g. be called via http://localhost:8984/restxq/set?key=user&value=john :
module namespace test = 'http://basex.org/examples/test'; import module namespace session = "http://basex.org/modules/session"; declare %restxq:path("/set") %restxq:query-param("key", "{$key}", "") %restxq:query-param("value", "{$value}", "") function test:update($key, $value) { session:update-attribute($key, $value), 'Attribute was set.' }; |
