[basex-talk] get-current-user()

2015-03-14 Thread Marc van Grootel
Hi,

Maybe I'm missing something but I cannot find the XQuery way to get
access to the logged in user from a web application using RESTXQ.

The servlet request object has getRemoteUser and Exist, for example,
has xmldb:get-current-user and Marklogic has xdmp:get-current-user.

I don't need to know intricate user details just need the handle on
the logged in / authenticated user (possibly from the servlet request
object?)

We could add a function user:current() to the new User Module [1].
More suggestions on other, possibly missing, functions are welcome.

Best,
