An implementation of RESTful Annotations for XQuery (RESTXQ) in plain XQuery. Most of this code is standard XQuery 3.0 with map extension, except for the function used to inspect a function signature and the calls to the HTTP request module.
This started as a temporary solution until the Java implementation was available, but I now use it as a quick fallback when I don't want to or cannot enable the restxq trigger.

restxq:process#2

restxq:process($path-info as xs:string?, $functions as function(*)+) as item()

Main entry point: takes a sequence of functions and tries to match them against the current HTTP request by inspecting their %rest annotations.

Parameters:
$path-infothe HTTP request path to compare with in %restxq:path. If empty, we'll use the value returned by request:get-path-info(), i.e. any extra path information in the URL after the path leading to the called XQuery. If you call restxq from a controller.xql, you probably want to pass $exist:path as $path-info.
$functionsthe sequence of function items to inspect, usually obtained by calling util:list-functions on a module URI.
Returns:
item()*
