I think the right syntax is
declare namespace output =
'http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization';
declare option output:method 'basex';
declare option output:indent 'yes';
declare option output:newline '\n';

Greetings! I have the following in the prolog of an XQuery:
declare namespace output =
'http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization';
declare option output:method 'basex';
declare option output:basex 'indent=yes, newline=\n';
I'm following the example at: https://docs.basex.org/wiki/Serialization for CSV, reasoning the same form should work for basex. Sadly, BaseX 10.4 on Debian reports: [XQST0109] Unknown option 'basex Is it because basex isn't in the namespace of 'http://www.w3.org/2010/xslt-xquery-serialization'; ? OK so I change the namespace to http://tm.durusau.net and it runs! Sadly not applying the requested formatting. Some guidance on serialization please? Thanks! Patrick

Thanks! That works! I have a separate question on formatting attributes but will post that separately. Hope you are having a great week! Patrick
