New to BaseX. Working on a project where 100's or sometimes 1000's of XML files are generated each day. Due to other exogenous factors, the preferred file structure would look like:
blah/20220714/
blah/20220715/
etc…
Is there some way to create this database architecture in BaseX?
In the documentation, a single folder seems to be the only option: “CREATE DB db /path/to/resources will add initial documents to a database”. It seems there is an ‘ADD’ command available to append files to the database; could this theoretically be run each day to append the new folder that gets created?
You can use CREATE DB
to create an empty database or a database with an initial set of documents. If you have a fixed set of resources that you want to import, it’s faster to use this bulk import feature than adding the documents in a second step.
With ADD
, you can import additional files, directories, remote source, etc. later on, whenever you like.
