Changes

Since BaseX 10, results in the {{Code|rest}} namespace are returned unprefixed:

<!-- before -->

<rest:databases xmlns:rest="http://basex.org/rest"/>

:<code>http://localhost:8080/rest</code>

<databases xmlns="http://basex.org/rest">

<database resources="25742" size="43813599">articles</database>

:<code>http://localhost:8080/rest/articles</code>

<database name="articles" xmlns="http://basex.org/rest">

<dir>binaries</dir>

Create an empty database and return database information:

<commands>

<create-db name='db'/>

Return the first five city names of the <b>factbook</b> database:

<rest xmlns="http://basex.org/rest">

<rest><![CDATA[ (//city/name)[position() <= 5] ]]></text>

Return string lengths of all text nodes that are found in the node that has been specified as initial context node:

<query>

<text>for $i in .//text() return string-length($i)</text>

Return the registered database users encoded in <code>ISO-8859-1</code>:

<command>

<text>show users</text>

Create a new database from the specified input and preserve all whitespaces:

<command>

<text>create db test http://files.basex.org/xml/xmark.xml</text>

Bind value to the {{Code|$person}} variable and run query <code>find-person.xq</code>:

<run>

<variable name='person' value='Johannes Müller'/>

If <code>query</code> or <code>run</code> is used as an operation, external variables can be specified via the <code><variable/></code> element:

<query xmlns="http://basex.org/rest">

<text><![CDATA[

<code>org.basex.util.Base64</code> can be used for that purpose:

import java.net.*;

import org.basex.util.*;

the connection (in this example we explicitly store the input file as raw):

// store input as raw

conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/octet-stream");
