Requirements
Java
A Runtime Environment of Java 1.6 (JRE) is needed to run BaseX. BaseX is platform-independent and should run on any platform that has a Java Virtual Machine available. BaseX has been tested on Windows (2000, XP, Vista, 7), Max OS X (10.x), Linux(SuSE xxx, Debian) and OpenBSD (4.x).
BaseX
Please download the latest BaseX version from our homepage.
All official releases include the BaseX runnable, Start Scripts, and API files. If you do not use the Windows installer, we recommend to add the bin directory, which contains all the start scripts, to your path environment; this way, you can run BaseX from every folder in the shell/terminal.
BaseX GUI
There are several ways of starting the GUI:
- Double click on the BaseX icon, or
BaseX.jar - Start the script
basexgui/basexgui.bat - Execute the command:
java -cp BaseX.jar org.basex.BaseXGUI
Note: The BaseX GUI is just working on local databases. While you can always access local database from a BaseX server instance, you should avoid accessing databases concurrently with the GUI and the server, esp. if updates are performed.
BaseX Server
There are several ways of starting the server (get more information here):
- Click on the BaseX Server icon
- Start one of the
basexserver/basexserver.batscripts - Execute the command:
java -cp BaseX.jar org.basex.BaseXServer
Note: For concurrently accessing the databases (especially for write transactions), you have to use the BaseX Server. Please don't use any other BaseX mode with the databases from the BaseX Server while the server is working.
BaseX Client
There are several ways of starting the client communicating with the server (get more information here):
- Click on the BaseX Client icon
- Start one of the
basexclient/basexclient.batscripts - Execute the command:
java -cp BaseX.jar org.basex.BaseXClient
A default admin user can be used to connect:
- Username:
admin - Password:
admin
The password can be changed using the PASSWORD command.
Check out the Server Tutorial section for more details.
BaseX Standalone
There are several ways of starting the standalone client (get more information here):
- Click on the BaseX Standalone icon
- Start one of the
basex/basex.batscripts - Execute the command:
java -cp BaseX.jar org.basex.BaseX
