Let me complete the palet of alternatives. The xdmp:save is a simple approach.
It for instance doesn't allow creation of directories. It is possible though to
batch things a bit and let MarkLogic Server wrap each batch in a zip using
xdmp:create-zip. I have recently done a quick export using the following code:
let $export-base := 'c:\temp\myexport-part-'
let $count := count(doc())
let $part-size := 1000
let $nrparts := xs:integer(ceiling($count div $part-size))
let $partcounts :=
for $partnr in (1 to $nrparts)
let $start := ($part-size * ($partnr - 1)) + 1
let $end := $part-size * $partnr
let $docs := doc()[$start to $end]
let $save :=
xdmp:save(concat($export-base, $partnr, '.zip'),
xdmp:zip-create(
<parts xmlns="xdmp:zip">{
for $doc in $docs
let $uri := base-uri($doc)
return
<part>{$uri}</part>
}</parts>,
$docs
)
)
return
count($docs)
return (
concat('Succesfully exported ', $count, ' files in ', $nrparts, ' parts (',
sum($partcounts), ' partitems)'),
xdmp:query-meters()/*:elapsed-time/text()
)
Use xdmp:spawn to dispatch the export batches to the task server and to let
them run in background.
Kind regards,
Geert
