Hi Andreas, In BaseX, you can use the EXPORT command or the db:export function to write all database contents to disk [1,2]. I know too little about eXist-db; maybe they offer a similar feature?
After that, as Fabrice indicated, you can use the CREATE DB command to create a database by pointing to that directory. If the database contains non-XML resources, you may need to write a little XQuery script or a BaseX command script that imports the data in the format you prefer. Hope this helps Christian [1] http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Commands#EXPORT [2] http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module#db:export On Tue, Jan 1, 2019 at 4:21 PM Andreas Jung <li...@zopyx.com> wrote: > > Hi there, > > consider moving my XML stuff for a particular project from eXist to BaseX. > > I have a full dump from eXist with all related content and I want to import > it 1:1 > into BaseX…is there a bulk loader or what is the preferred way to import an > existing folder structure? > Of course I can create my own script what would import the data through > WebDAV but the dump has about > 50.000 files. > > Andreas
