NAME

       basexserver - XML database system and XPath/XQuery processor (server mode)

SYNOPSIS

       basexserver [-cdinpSz] [stop]

DESCRIPTION

       basexserver starts the server mode of the native XML database system basex(1) on default port 1984.

OPTIONS

       A short description of option can be obtained from

           $ basexserver -h

       or by browsing http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Startup_Options#BaseX_Server

USER MANAGEMENT

       On first startup a user 'admin' with default password 'admin' exists (make sure to change this)!

       Admin permissions are needed to execute one of the following processes.

       •  Creating user 'test' with password 'test':

          > CREATE USER test test

       As global permissions valid options are 'none', 'read', 'write', 'create' and 'admin'.

       •  Revoking all global permissions from user 'test':

          > GRANT none TO test

       Valid local permissions are 'none', 'read' and 'write'.

       •  Granting write permission on database 'factbook' to user 'test':

           > GRANT write ON factbook TO test

       Note:  Local  permissions  overwrite  global  permissions. As a consequence, the 'test' user will only be
       allowed to access (i.e., read and write) the 'factbook' database. If no local permissions  are  set,  the
       global rights are inherited.

       •  Showing global permissions:

           > SHOW USERS

       •  Showing local permissions on database 'factbook':

          > SHOW USERS ON factbook

       •  Dropping of user 'test':

          > DROP USER test

       Further   details   on   user   management   are   to   be   found   in   the  BaseX  Documentation  Wiki
       (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/User_Management).
