This XQuery Module contains functions for accessing and modifying server-side session information. This module is mainly useful in the context of Web Applications.
Conventions
As sessions are side-effecting operations, all functions in this module are flagged as non-deterministic. This means that the evaluation order of the functions will not be influenced by the compiler.
All functions 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. Errors are assigned to the http://basex.org/errors
namespace, which is statically bound to the bxerr
prefix.

session:id() as xs:string
|

Running a RESTXQ function 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-names() as xs:string*
|
Summary
|
Returns the names of all attributes bound to the current session.

|
session:attribute($key as xs:string) as xs:string?
