Hello all,
I am trying to copy (duplicate) an existing document via REST API, but can not
get it working.
I tried via POST as commands. Can somebody please provide me a working example ?
My use case is simply duplicate an existing document in a databse, as a backup
file.
>From the documentation: <add (path='...')>[input]</add>,
I translated it to xml command similar:
<commands>
<command>OPEN db</command>
<command>ADD copy.xml source.xml</command>
</commands>
with diffferent variations, like adding path argument etc.
However, in the end I got nothing working. I also tried it via xquery,
but I would prefer xml like above. But in the end I am happy with any working
example.
Two more questions in that context. What is the recommended header Content-Type
xml or text/plain?
Does it make sense rto use the http://basex_rest_url/?command url or just the
REST URL?
I am pretty sure, there is an easy solution for copying documents, so any help
on this is appreciated.
Thank you in advance
Alexander Liedtke
