This XQuery Module contains functions for evaluating XQuery strings and modules at runtime.
Contents
Conventions
All functions in this module are assigned to the http://basex.org/modules/xquery
namespace, which is statically bound to the xquery
prefix.
All errors are assigned to the http://basex.org/errors
namespace, which is statically bound to the bxerr
prefix.
Functions
xquery:eval
Signatures | xquery:eval($query as xs:string) as item()* xquery:eval($query as xs:string, $bindings as map(*)) as item()* |
Summary | Evaluates $query as XQuery expression at runtime and returns the resulting items.Variables and context items can be declared via $bindings . The specified keys must be QNames or strings, the values can be arbitrary item sequences:
|
Errors | BXXQ0001 : the query contains updating expressions.
|
Examples |
xquery:eval("//country", map{ '' := db:open('factbook') })
xquery:eval(".", map{ '' := 'XML' }) xquery:eval("$xml", map{ 'xml' := 'XML' }), xquery:eval("$xml", map{ '$xml' := 'XML' }), xquery:eval("declare namespace pref='URI'; $pref:xml", map{ '{URI}xml' := 'XML' }),
declare namespace pref = 'URI'; xquery:eval("$xml", map{ xs:QName('xml') := 'XML' }) xquery:eval("declare namespace pref='URI'; $pref:xml", map{ xs:QName('pref:xml') := 'XML' }), |
xquery:invoke
Signatures | xquery:invoke($uri as xs:string) as item()* xquery:invoke($expr as xs:string, $bindings as map(*)) as item()* |
Summary | Opens $uri as file, evaluates it as XQuery expression at runtime, and returns the resulting items.The semantics of the $bindings parameter is the same as for xquery:eval.
|
Errors | BXXQ0001 : the query contains updating expressions.
|
xquery:type
Signatures | xquery:type($expr as item()*) as item()*
|
Summary | Similar to fn:trace($expr, $msg) , but instead of a user-defined message, it emits the compile-time type and estimated result size of its argument.
|
Errors

BXXQ0001
|
A dynamically evaluated query must not contain any updating expressions. |
Changelog
This module was introduced with Version 7.3. Functions have been adopted from the obsolete Utility Module.
