This page is part of the Developer Section. It describes how to use BaseX from other programming languages.
With the following light-weight bindings in different programming languages, you will be able to connect to a running BaseX server instance, execute database commands, perform queries or listen to events.
- Standard Mode: connecting to a server, sending commands
- Query Mode: defining queries, binding variables, iterative evaluation
Bindings for other languages are easy to write, and welcome! Please have a look at our Server Protocol for more information.
Currently, we offer bindings for the following programming languages:
- Imperative
- C
- Object oriented
- C#, VB, Java, Scala
- Qt (contributed by Hendrik Strobelt)
- Scripting
- PHP, Python, Perl, Ruby
- Rebol (contributed by Sabu Francis)
- Functional
- Lisp (contributed by Andy Chambers)
- Haskell (contributed by Leo Wörteler)
Many of the interfaces contain the following files:
BaseXClient
contains the actual code for creating a session, sending and executing commands and receiving results. Furthermore there is an inner class calledquery
which offers the evaluation of queries in an iterative manner.Example
demonstrates how to send database commands.QueryExample
shows you how to evaluate queries in an iterative manner.QueryBindExample
shows you how to bind a variable to your query and evaluates the query in an iterative manner.CreateExample
shows how new databases can be created by using streams.AddExample
shows how documents can be added to a database by using streams.EventExample
demonstrates how to watch and unwatch Events.
