if (contains($str, 'AE')) then 'Failure'
else if (contains($str, 'GE') or contains($str, 'SE') then 'Error'
else 'Success'

you get the idea....  if that's not sufficient then tokenize on comma
and iterate the sequence checking each using starts-with().

Subject: [xquery-talk] [ANN] Lux XML search engine
Message-ID: <51C04820.1030409@safaribooksonline.com>

I'm pleased to announce the first public release of Lux (version 0.9.1), 
an XML search engine embedding Saxon 9 and Lucene/Solr 4. Lux offers 
many features found in XML databases: persistent XML storage, 
index-optimized querying, an interactive query window, and some 
application support features - it is possible to build applications 
written exclusively in XQuery and XSLT using Lux. I call it a search 
engine, though, to indicate this is not a replacement for a 
full-featured database. I hope existing Solr/Lucene users dealing with 
XML documents will find Lux adds a unique and compelling query capability.

Lux grew out of the need to provide an XML-aware query capability for 
documents stored in and indexed by Solr/Lucene; it is currently in use 
at my workplace, both as an ad hoc query tool for developers and as part 
of our content ingestion process. We believe that others may find it 
useful as well, and are providing it under an open source license in the 
hope that wider exposure will lead to a longer, healthier life.

Lux is built on a production quality code base.  It has been rigorously 
tested, and all known critical defects have been resolved. However, it 
is in a fairly early stage of development (it's about a year old).  This 
means there are features users will miss.  Some of them we already know 
about (see the Plans page on the web site or the issue tracker), but the 
relatively narrow distribution so far means there are certainly more to 
be found.  I encourage you to report these on the mailing list (see 
below): this is a unique opportunity to influence the direction Lux 
takes in the future.

Lots more information, including downloads and setup instructions, is 
available at http://luxdb.org, source code is at 
http://github.com/msokolov/lux, issues are tracked at 
http://issues.luxdb.org/, and please let us know what you think using 
the (brand new) mailing list at luxdb at luxdb.org, archived at 
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/luxdb. (Please note 
the mailing list is hosted as a google group, which makes it a bit 
tricky to sign up with a non-gmail address, but you can.  To do that, 
just tack your email address on to this link: 
http://groups.google.com/group/luxdb/boxsubscribe?email=)

PS: apologies for cross-posting; there is some overlap among the 
readership of these groups, I know -- but they are not identical, and 
we'll keep any followup to a single list -- or on the luxdb list.

Subject: [xquery-talk] [ANN] Syntax-highlighting XQuery 3.0 with XSLT
Message-ID: <CADV2FzSKuS2VoQn_Cz=7OLiQDooTjUPC3-XfmD1YcPbWUTc2dQ@mail.gmail.com>

Dear list members,

I'm pleased to announce that I've just updated the XMLSpectrum project
so it can now generate syntax-highlighted HTML for XQuery code
conforming to the candidate recommendation for XQuery 3.0.

XMLSpectrum comprises a set of standard-XSLT 2.0 stylesheets for
syntax-highlighting languages that are part of the XPath family. Other
supported specifications include XSLT 3.0, Schematron, XProc and XML
Schema 1.1.

XSLT parameters allow control over a range of options including 6
customisable color themes  and css placement
(inline/internal/external). Though this is purely an XSLT solution, a
light-weight Java GUI front-end is included with the project -
providing quick access to many of the rendering options for the
transform and a built-in webkit browser for reviewing the result.

To give an idea of how this performs for XQuery, the XHTML result from
running the XMLSpectrum XSLT against the W3C (XQuery 3.0)
specification samples is shown here:

http://qutoric.com/samples/xquery-3.0cr-samples.html

XMLSpectrum is an open source project hosted on GitHub at:

https://github.com/pgfearo/xmlspectrum

Many thanks

As you have to bind external variables in XQuery 1.0, just bind it to an 
empty sequence. So in your scenario: In case you get an empty result set 
for your values / nodes, just bind the external variable $a to an empty 
sequence. This way you can than also check for fn:empty($a).

Cheers,
Dirk

Hi Daniela,

Congratulations to you and the authors - I see a lot of value with
JSONiq and hope the book leads to broader interest and adoption.

I see the book is available as a Kindle edition too.  Do you have a
sense of whether the Kindle edition is formatted well enough that you
would recommend it for readers?

Joe

In the absence of a schema declaring that <a> and <b> are numbers, 
the values are considered to be text strings.  In your third example, 
the values are not nodes but are numbers by the syntax you've used, 
so you get what you expect.

I hope this helps.

The comparisons of element values are being done with string semantics. 
With untyped XML you should cast to a numeric type to reliably get 
numeric comparisons.

Comparison under the default collation is simple codepoint-wise 
lexicographical comparison.

Hi,
I need to log users into existdb using xquery. Of course I can use this code:

xquery version "3.0";
declare namespace exist = "http://exist.sourceforge.net/NS/exist";
declare namespace request="http://exist-db.org/xquery/request";
declare namespace xmldb="http://exist-db.org/xquery/xmldb";
declare option exist:serialize "method=json media-type=text/javascript";

let $userName := request:get-parameter("userName", ())
let $hash := request:get-parameter("hash", ())
let $login := xmldb:authenticate('/db', $userName, $hash)
return  <ajax-response>
            <success>{$login}</success>
        <username>{$userName}</username>
    </ajax-response>

The problem is that, due to the fact that I receive the password and the username from another service, I receive them in hash form encrypted with md5 (because the can't be passed in clear from a service to another).
But the xmldb:authenticate function needs the password in clear. How can I resolve this? Any idea? Is there a way to login 'manually' in xquery without using the authenticate function?

Luca,

As this is a very eXist-db specific question can I ask you to re-post
this on the exist-open mailing list please? Here is not really the
correct forum for eXist specific questions...
