Hi all,
investigating the new features tagged 9.x, I discovered a lot of great stuff. I have teo smaller questions ...
I'd like to know whether the new "-c flag" for the Basex Http Server in [1] means that one can request a script of commands to be executed once at startup of the server. Is there a way to do something equivalent also at server shutdown?
In [2] with the new Service it is said that one could write jobs.xml file inside the database directory. I couldn't find the specification of the syntax of this file anywhere. Do you have some hints?
Bye,
Marco.

Right, that’s exactly what the flag does.

Currently no, but I’ll have some thoughts on how this could be realized.

The format is pretty similar to the output of
db:list-details(). Maybe the easiest approach right now is to create a persistent jobs and check out the created file.
Hope this helps, cheers,
