Re: [basex-talk] mapping functions
You can import the library module in the evaluated expression. Example:

Subject: [basex-talk] mapping functions
Hello --
I have various databases that will be run through the same code after their
contents is regularized. So the only different function is the one used
for regularization.
This can be handled by writing a wrapper function and passing in a label to
say which function to use, but I was wondering if there's a way to do it in
the configuration map directly. The configuration map exists as a text
file and gets run through xquery:eval() at the start of the process.
declare namespace abc='http://some/uri';
'regularizationFunction': map {
'typeOne': abc:regularizationOne#1,
'typeTwo': abc:regularizationTwo#1
}
doesn't work, because the abc functions aren't known at evaluation time.
These functions are defined in the library module that's evaluating the
configuration file but xquery:eval() doesn't know that. I don't see a way
to use bindings to get around this.
Is there a way to map a locally-defined function reference so xquery:eval()
will recognize it?
thanks!

[basex-talk] Use Bash to construct multi-file form submission
This is not strictly a BaseX question but it is in the context of communicating
with a BaseX-implemented REST service and I’m hoping someone in this community
can answer my question as I’ve not found a solution the interwebs.
I’ve implemented a POST method that expects a multi-part form request with
multiple files that then loads those files into a database. The files are all
related such that I want something close to an atomic commit for the set of
files. Thus the multi-file form approach.
The REST method works and I can use from the command line using curl, i.e:
curl --location http://localhost:9984/now/rest/validation/reports?debug=false \
--form
'files=@"/Users/eliot.kimber/git-basex/product-content-analytics/validation-reports/vancouver/bundle-strategic-portfolio-mgmt_errors_vancouver_2023-08-14T22~11~28Z_1ae692f8_1692054936.xml"'
\
--form
'files=@"/Users/eliot.kimber/git-basex/product-content-analytics/validation-reports/vancouver/bundle-tech-technology-industry_errors_vancouver_2023-08-14T22~11~28Z_1ae692f8_1692054971.xml"'
What I haven’t been able to figure out is how to construct the equivalent curl
command in a bash script, where the script gets a list of flies to load and
then constructs the –form parameters.
Everything I’ve tried results in a “Warning: Trailing data after quoted form
parameter” message or some more utter failure.
It must be some subtlety of how to escape the quotes—my googling around
produces lots of stack overflow discussions of how to manage the escapes, but
nothing I’ve tried has so far worked.
My bash approach is simply:
curlcmd=”curl --location …”
for file in ${files[@]}; do
curlcmd+=” --form ‘files=@\”${file}\”’
done
And then execute the resulting string:
bash -c $curlcmd
I have a separate script that successfully constructs a curl call to a
companion end point that takes one file:
curl \
"--location"
"${serverUrl}:${serverPort}/now/rest/validation/report/${fileName}?debug=${debug}"
\
"--header" "Content-Type: text/xml" \
"--data-binary" "@${filePath}"
And I’m currently just calling this for each file, which is OK.
But I’d really like to be able to send a set of files as a single REST call.
Thanks,
Eliot
