Welcome to the Query Portal, which is one of the main sections of this documentation. Here you can find more information on performing XPath and XQuery requests. Apart from standard features, BaseX offers numerous extensions, which are listed on this page.
XQuery
- Full-Text: full-text features of XQuery
- Update: update mechanism of XQuery
- XQuery 3.0: supported features of the upcoming W3C XQuery 3.0 Recommendation
- Java Bindings: how to call Java code from XQuery
- Errors: errors raised by XQuery expressions

Note that all namespace URIs are statically bound in BaseX, i.e., they need not be declared in the query prolog. All XQuery 3.0 functions are listed in the XQuery 3.0 Functions and Operators draft; we have made a list of all new functions that have already been implemented in BaseX.
Indexes
Queries will be analyzed and optimized for index access on the fly.
- Overview: All indexes and their functionality
- Execution Plan: Execution plans of the queries
