Hi Kelly,

Thank you for explaining this MarkLogic feature! But sadly it doesn't seem to 
solve the problem. I added *.dat extension to text/xml mimetypes list but still 
these files are concerned as binary and still fn:doc() does not work right for 
them. Could you (or anyone on this list) suppose what else am I doing wrong? 
Thanks in advance!

Van

Van,

You're right - you cannot assign the output type when using fn:doc(). You need 
to set it correctly when you load the document, which you can do one of two 
ways:

1) go to the mimetype settings for your server and make .dat an xml document 
format. There are three options (text, xml, binary), and if the file format is 
not listed, the default is binary. I believe this is what occurred with your 
.dat file.

2) explicitly using xdmp:document-load() in the options node at the element 
<format/>.

For more info on this, see section 10.2 of the developer guide: 
http://developer.marklogic.com/pubs/4.0/books/dev_guide.pdf

I would also recommend reading section 10.1, which describes how the different 
document formats are treated for indexing. If you were having issues searching 
your .dat files, or issuing XPath expressions against them, it is because 
documents that are stored as binary are not indexed, and cannot be queried with 
XPath (even if they are *actually* XML).

Hope this helps.

Kelly

Hi Danny

Yes you're right but the problem is that fn:doc() does not allow to explicitly 
assign a document the XML format (at least I couldn't find any information on 
it). When I try to get, say, *.dat file from the database, its content is 
concerned as a binary() node even when it actually contains only XML tags. Is 
there any way to solve this?

Hi Ivan,

xdmp:document-get gets a file over http or from a filesystem path.  You are 
trying to get a document from the database.  Use fn:doc for that.

Hello everyone, 

I've got troubles when using xdmp:document-get() fuction. Code like this

define variable $get-options {
    <options xmlns="xdmp:document-get">
        <format>xml</format>
    </options>
}

define function process-packet ( $update-packet as element() ) as element() {
    let $dir := $update-packet/@dir
    
    return
        if ($dir) then
            try {
                <update-results dir="{$dir}">
                    {
                        let $destination :=
                             for $d in xdmp:directory(try-dir($dir), "infinity")
                             return
                                 if(xdmp:uri-is-file(xdmp:node-uri($d))) then
                                     xdmp:document-get(xdmp:node-uri($d), 
$get-options)
                                 else ()
                        return
                            xdmp:directory(try-dir($dir), "infinity")
                    }
                </update-results>
            }
            catch($ex) {
                $ex
            }
}

returns nothing or (with xdmp:uri-is-file() check commented out) it throws an 
error:

<err:error xsi:schemaLocation="http://marklogic.com/xdmp/error error.xsd">
      <err:code>SVC-FILOPN</err:code>
      <err:message>File open error</err:message>
      <err:format-string>
                SVC-FILOPN: xdmp:document-get("/root/test-dir/target.xml", 
<options xmlns="xdmp:document-get"><format>xml</format></options>) -- File open 
                     error: open '/root/test-dir/target.xml ': No such file or 
directory
      </err:format-string>
.
.
.

The file is there, root path is correct. What is wrong?

BTW can anyone tell me, is it true that xdmp:directory() takes only *.xml files 
as real XML content while all the other types are considered as binaries 
regardless to their content (even if it is node())? Seems like it is so.

Thanks in advance,
Van
