This XQuery Module contains functions for evaluating XQuery strings and modules at runtime.
Contents
Conventions
All functions in this module are assigned to the http://basex.org/modules/xquery
namespace, which is statically bound to the xquery
prefix.
All errors are assigned to the http://basex.org/errors
namespace, which is statically bound to the bxerr
prefix.
Functions
xquery:eval
Template:Mark $options
argument added.
Signatures | xquery:eval($query as xs:string) as item()* xquery:eval($query as xs:string, $bindings as map(*)) as item()* xquery:eval($query as xs:string, $bindings as map(*), $options as item()) as item() |
Summary | Evaluates $query as XQuery expression at runtime and returns the resulting items.The evaluated query has its own query context. If a returned node is stored in a database, a main-memory copy will be returned as result, because the referenced database is closed after query execution and will not be accessible anymore. Variables and context items can be declared via $bindings . The specified keys must be QNames or strings, the values can be arbitrary item sequences:
The
<xquery:options> <xquery:permission value="none"/> </xquery:options>
map { "permission" := "none" } The following options are available:
|
Errors | BXXQ0001 : the query contains updating expressions.BXXQ0003 : insufficient permissions for evaluating the query.BXXQ0004 : query execution exceeded timeout or memory constraints.FOTY0013 : the expression yields function items.
|
Examples |
xquery:eval("//country", map { '' := db:open('factbook') })
xquery:eval(".", map { '': 'XML' }), xquery:eval("declare variable $xml external; $xml", map { 'xml' := 'XML' }), xquery:eval( "declare namespace pref='URI'; declare variable $pref:xml external; $pref:xml", map { '{URI}xml': 'XML' } )
declare namespace pref = 'URI'; xquery:eval("declare variable $xml external; $xml", map { xs:QName('xml'): 'XML' }), let $query := "declare namespace pref='URI'; declare variable $pref:xml external; $pref:xml" let $vars := map { xs:QName('pref:xml'): 'XML' } return xquery:eval($query, $vars) |
xquery:update
Signatures | xquery:update($query as xs:string) as item()* xquery:update($query as xs:string, $bindings as map(*)) as item()* xquery:update($query as xs:string, $bindings as map(*), $options as item()) as item() |
Summary | Evaluates $query as updating XQuery expression at runtime.All updates will be added to the Pending Update List of the main query and performed after the evaluation of the main query. |
Errors | BXXQ0002 : the query contains no updating expressions.BXXQ0003 : insufficient permissions for evaluating the query.BXXQ0004 : query execution exceeded timeout or memory constraints.FOTY0013 : the expression yields function items.
|
xquery:invoke
Template:Mark $options
argument added.
Signatures | xquery:invoke($uri as xs:string) as item()* xquery:invoke($uri as xs:string, $bindings as map(*)) as item()* xquery:invoke($uri as xs:string, $bindings as map(*), $options as item()) as item()* |
Summary | Opens $uri as file, evaluates it as XQuery expression at runtime, and returns the resulting items. Database nodes in the result will be copied and returned instead.The semantics of the $bindings and $options parameters is the same as for xquery:eval.
|
Errors | BXXQ0001 : the expression contains updating expressions.BXXQ0003 : insufficient permissions for evaluating the query.BXXQ0004 : query execution exceeded timeout.FOTY0013 : the expression yields function items.
|
xquery:type
Signatures | xquery:type($expr as item()*) as item()*
|
Summary | Similar to fn:trace($expr, $msg) , but instead of a user-defined message, it emits the compile-time type and estimated result size of its argument.
|
Errors
Code | Description |
---|---|
BXXQ0001
|
The specified query contains updating expressions. |
BXXQ0002
|
The specified query contains no updating expressions. |
BXXQ0003
|
Insufficient permissions for evaluating the query. |
BXXQ0004
|
Query execution exceeded timeout. |
Changelog
- Version 8.0
- Added: xquery:update
- Deleted: xquery:evaluate (opened databases will now be closed by main query)
- Version 7.8.2
- Added:
$options
argument
- Version 7.8
- Added: xquery:evaluate
- Updated: used variables must be explicitly declared in the query string.
This module was introduced with Version 7.3. Functions have been adopted from the obsolete Utility Module.
