<message nick="cefn" time="12:22:21.181Z">I'd like to know how to load files from the filesystem where the xquery documents are stored, or how to get meaningful errors. Can I force exist to report where it's looking for documents? I want to load the document from ../schema/user.rng relative to the location of the currently executing xquery file. The file is there, but my doc("../schema/user.rng") returns nothing and no errors.</message>

<message nick="cefn" time="14:56:30.754Z">i was looking into using webdav to mount the filesystems inside the database, but it's a nasty hack</message>
<message nick="perig" time="15:04:09.837Z">cefn : do you know our function library which offers some convenience XQuery functions to perform a lot of things, including file upload ?</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="15:05:20.573Z">I understand some aspects of filesystem networking in eXist, but in this case I'm merely aiming to access the filesystem inside the webapp directory directly. The files are already there, but I can't seem to address them using the doc(...) function.</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="15:06:11.823Z">I must be missing some kind of protocol prefix or something</message>

<message nick="cefn" time="15:10:26.409Z">Could you give me an example of a valid one for addressing files inside the webapp directory. I don't want them to be served by the webserver. This could be a security issue in principle.</message>

<message nick="perig" time="15:12:51.676Z">see the source code of, say, webapp/admin/setup.xqm</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="15:13:06.516Z">will look at that back soon</message>
<message nick="perig" time="15:13:28.406Z">not sure about relative paths</message>

<message nick="perig" time="15:14:26.144Z">I've understood :-)</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="15:15:35.729Z">setup:importLocal gives some good pointers using exist's home directory, though relative would be preferred</message>
<message nick="perig" time="15:17:34.24Z">As I've said, I not sure you can use relative paths : we definitely lack some efficient and easy to use resolvers in eXist.</message>

<message nick="cefn" time="15:18:17.759Z">thanks for the pointer</message>
<message nick="perig" time="15:19:20.705Z">you're welcome</message>
<message nick="perig" time="15:22:08.683Z">it might also be possible to use resolve-uri() taking your XQuery's URI as the base URI</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="15:22:48.997Z">yes, I've used that with XSLT before, and didn't think about it for this case - good plan</message>
<message nick="perig" time="15:23:04.178Z">I think so :-)</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="15:25:34.562Z">any idea which URI would be imported when a function is called inside a module (the module's URI or the containing doc)?</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="15:25:47.63Z">sorry 'reported' not 'imported'</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="15:34:23.681Z">does base-uri report the URI of the doc being processed, and static-base-uri report the URI of the doc which imports it?</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="15:46:35.715Z">Apparently can't introspect the URI of the executing xquery document itself (searching eXist function names for 'doc' or 'uri' doesn't show up anything useful)</message>
<message nick="perig" time="16:27:39.041Z">the static context's base URI should make it though... </message>
<message nick="cefn" time="16:28:39.523Z">The static-base-uri inside an XQuery evaluation shows up as xmldb://existEmbedded/db or something like that. Seems to have nothing to do with the filesystem</message>
<message nick="perig" time="16:29:12.848Z">... which looks lika a bug then</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="16:29:21.55Z">where should I file it?</message>
<message nick="perig" time="16:29:38.773Z">In the bug tracker ?</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="16:29:49.418Z">will do</message>
<message nick="perig" time="16:30:15.353Z">However, this bug is more likely to be fixed if you provide a test case (that could ideally be patched on our test suite)</message>
<message nick="cefn" time="16:30:25.246Z">yup</message>
<message nick="perig" time="16:31:09.076Z">bugs without test cases can remain open... quite a long time</message>
