The following scripts, which are referenced in the Startup and Startup Options articles, are also included in the Windows and ZIP release files.

  • We recommend you to manually add the BaseX bin directory to the PATH variable of your environment.
  • The Windows installer automatically adds the project’s bin directory to your path environment.
  • If you work with maven or the GitHub source, you can directly run the scripts from the etc directory of our GitHub basex and basex-api repositories.

Main Package

The following scripts launch the standalone version of BaseX. Please replace the class name in org.basex.BaseX with either BaseXClient, BaseXServer, or BaseXGUI to run the client, server or GUI version.

Windows: basex.bat

@echo off
setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion

REM Path to this script
set PWD=%~dp0

REM Core and library classes
set CP=%PWD%/../BaseX.jar
set LIB=%PWD%/../lib
for /R "%LIB%" %%a in (*.jar) do set CP=!CP!;%%a

REM Options for virtual machine
set VM=-Xmx512m

REM Run code
java -cp "%CP%" %VM% org.basex.BaseX %*

Linux/Mac: basex

#!/bin/bash

# Path to this script
FILE="${BASH_SOURCE[0]}"
while [ -h "$FILE" ] ; do
  SRC="$(readlink "$FILE")"
  FILE="$( cd -P "$(dirname "$FILE")" && \
           cd -P "$(dirname "$SRC")" && pwd )/$(basename "$SRC")"
done
BX="$( cd -P "$(dirname "$FILE")/.." && pwd )"

# Core and library classes
CP="$BX/BaseX.jar"
CP="$CP$(for JAR in "$BX"/lib/*.jar; do echo -n ":$JAR"; done)"

# Options for virtual machine

# Run code
java -cp "$CP" $VM org.basex.BaseX "$@"

HTTP Server

The scripts for starting the HTTP server, which gives access to the REST, RESTXQ and WebDAV services, can be found below.

Windows: basexhttp.bat

@echo off
setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion

REM Path to this script

for /R "%LIB%" %%a in (*.jar) do set CP=!CP!;%%a
for /R "%LIB%" %%a in (*.jar) do set CP=!CP!;%%a

REM Options for virtual machine

REM Run code
java -cp "%CP%;." %VM% org.basex.BaseXHTTP %*

Linux/Mac: basexhttp

#!/bin/bash

# Path to this script
FILE="${BASH_SOURCE[0]}"
while [ -h "$FILE" ] ; do
  SRC="$(readlink "$FILE")"
  FILE="$( cd -P "$(dirname "$FILE")" && \
           cd -P "$(dirname "$SRC")" && pwd )/$(basename "$SRC")"
done
BX="$( cd -P "$(dirname "$FILE")/.." && pwd )"
BXCORE="$( cd -P "$BX/../basex" && pwd )"

# API, core, and library classes
CP="$BX/BaseX.jar$(printf ":%s" "$BX/BaseX.jar" "$BX/lib/"*.jar "$BXCORE/target/classes" "$BXCORE/lib/"*.jar)"
