If you want to test in a conditional:
if (doc($uri))
If you actually want a boolean value:
exists(doc($uri))

Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] xml file existence
Hi all,
Is there a function to determine if an xml file exists within the ML
database? I thought it would be xdmp:uri-is-file, but as far as I
can
tell this checks for the existence of a file on the application
server
(not IN the database). I can't find a native function to check this,
currently I'm doing:
define function util:uri-exists($uri as xs:string)
as xs:boolean
{
fn:exists(fn:doc($uri))
}
Is there a better way?
Cheers,
Eric
