[MarkLogic Dev General] Re: Saving a document with properties

Wed May 20 10:54:48 PDT 2009

I do think that my example would be atomic.  I was just asking if this
is the best way to accomplish this.  Sorry if the last line of my
previous post was misleading.  The example is just one call to the
database.

Hello,

here's another question from a MarkLogic newbie.  I was thinking of
indexing Apache log files (or any other line-based log files, for this
matter) for later exploitation.  I was thinking of feeding  this XML to
some kind of dashboard application which would be able to create nice
graphs and buckets etc.

Is it possible and does it make sense at all to create a CPF pipeline
that will parse and enrich each line to create an XML representation?
Is something like this already worked on? Another approach?

cheers,
Jakob.

Hi,

Sorry for the following question but I'm new to MarkLogic and have some
difficulties with some basic stuff you mention in the lib-search. 

In the Get-started section some steps are mentioned, where some
clarrification could help: 

Step 1: Create a project folder. Where should I create the project
folder?
Inside the installation directory of MarkLogic? Or anywhere on my
computer?

Step 3: Createn an XDMP site. What is an XDMP site? I know that xdmp is
a
namespace prefix that is used for invoking some build - in functions.
But
how I create a XDMP site? And how do I point to a project folder and to
the
database I want. 

Step 4: Fire up CQ. The CQ is the known Content Query Application I
installed to start working with my uploaded data? If yes then its until
there Okay. But how I point to the XDMP site using CQ? 

I suggest that understanding these 3 steps will make it easier to
understand
to make step 4 and step 5. 

Thank you. 

With Regards,

Meropi

What is the difference between session.insertContent and
xdmp:document-insert?  When using xcc is there any advantage to using
one over the other?  Thanks.

I want to insert a new document with some custom properties using xcc.
The xdmp:document-add-properties function requires the document to exist
in the database and I want the insert and add of the properties to be
atomic.  While I could probably do something like

xdmp:document-insert($document, $documentUri),
xdmp:document-add-properties($documentUri, $properties)

I'm wondering if there is a way to do this with a single call to to the
database.  Thanks.

Robert,

Why wouldn't your example be an atomic statement?

The transaction model might be clearer after a review of chapter 3 in 
the developer guide: "Understanding Transactions in MarkLogic Server"

   http://developer.marklogic.com/pubs/

You may find the section titled "Example: Incrementing the System 
Timestamp" especially illuminating.

Hi Robert,

I am not a much of a Java guy, so others might be better to comment on
this one, but I think the difference is that with session.insertContent,
you are using Java to stream in the content to MarkLogic Server.  With
xdmp:document-insert, you are using XQuery to create the content in
memory to insert.  If you have a large amount of content on the client
machine (where the XCC program is running) to load, then it makes sense
to use insertContent.  I believe this is what the open source project
RecordLoader does (http://developer.marklogic.com/code/#recordloader).
