BaseX offers a standalone console mode from which all database commands can be executed. As first operations you can do the same as described in the first operations sections for client-server mode on a local basis.

Startup

See the Startup Overview.

Working with the BaseX Console

After the BaseX Console has been started, the help command lists all available BaseX commands. Several commands can be separated by semicolons.

To evaluate commands without entering the console mode, you can use the -c option on the command line:

basex -Vc "create db input input.xml; xquery /"

Database 'input' created in 53.64 ms.
<html>
  <!-- Header -->
  <head id="0">
    <title>XML</title>
  </head>
  <!-- Body -->
  <body id="1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000" link="#0000CC">
    <h1>Databases & XML</h1>
    <div align="right">
      <b>Assignments</b>
      <ul>
        <li>Exercise 1</li>
        <li>Exercise 2</li>
      </ul>
    </div>
  </body>
  <?pi bogus?>
