Assuming you mean using Version 6 of MarkLogic. JSON documents can be loaded into MarkLogic in several ways. If you load using the REST or Java API's the JSON documents are converted to a "black box" XML format using this conversion
http://docs.marklogic.com/json:transform-from-json Using the "basic" strategy. You can see what that looks like by either loading documents then inspecting them as XML , or you can run say in QConsole the examples given at the above link. Default indexing is done for the resultant XML. You can also add your own indexes and work directly on the data as XML but you must then be aware of what this "black box" format is and use XML indexing and queries. Alternatively if you stick to the Java API or REST layer you can make queries in JSON directly. Another approach (more advanced) is to make use of the "custom" strategy to convert JSON to XML and back, this requires more thought and effort but you have greater control over the transformation and can produce XML or JSON closer to or identical to what you want. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- David Lee Lead Engineer MarkLogic Corporation d...@marklogic.com Phone: +1 812-482-5224 Cell: +1 812-630-7622 www.marklogic.com<http://www.marklogic.com/> From: general-boun...@developer.marklogic.com [mailto:general-boun...@developer.marklogic.com] On Behalf Of gnanaprakash.bodire...@cognizant.com Sent: Wednesday, June 26, 2013 9:24 AM To: general@developer.marklogic.com Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] using JSON and indexing and querying JSON Hi I am just wondering if we could load only JSON documents into MarkLogic and then index the keys as we do for XML elements? (I know indexing is possible but my though Can we create indexes similar to XML elements range, path range indexes? Can we query the JSON similar to XQuery?
