Data analysis

Hello, I’m new to basex and really like the functionality. I have very complex XML files with deep nesting. Each file is like a document with test output values and parameters. Basex ingested the files easily and I’m able to write queries to pull out data. My end goal is to plot, graph trend data. I can do basic plotting within Basex. Do you have any suggestions for tools to visualize the data trending ? I have Power BI , but its’ not great with XML input. Thanks in advance Tim

Hi Tim, You can serialize your data as you prefer in BaseX [1]: therefore you can easily make your computations in XML and then output whatever format is required for your visualization tool. For a fully automated approach, you can also take advantage of the Process Module [2], which enables you to invoke data/visualization functions from other programming languages by giving as an input what you create in BaseX.
