import BaseXClient

# create session
session = BaseXClient.Session('localhost', 1984, 'admin', 'admin')

try:
# create new database
session.create("database", "<x>Hello World!</x>")
print(session.info())

# run query on database
print("\n" + session.execute("xquery doc('database')"))

# drop database
session.execute("drop db database")
print(session.info())

finally:
# close session
if session:
session.close()


Query Example
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# This example shows how queries can be executed in an iterative manner.
# Iterative evaluation will be slower, as more server requests are performed.

import BaseXClient

# create session
session = BaseXClient.Session('localhost', 1984, 'admin', 'admin')

try:
# create query instance
input = "for $i in 1 to 10 return <xml>Text { $i }</xml>"
query = session.query(input)

# loop through all results
for typecode, item in query.iter():
print("typecode=%d" % typecode)
print("item=%s" % item)

# close query object
query.close()

finally:
# close session
if session:
session.close()
