Welcome, dear reader, to our book on eXist. Whether you have purchased, begged, borrowed, or stolen this book, we hope that you find its contents of great use when applied to solving your information management problems.
While its true that eXist has been around for some years nowin fact, for longer than many of the now popular NoSQL platformseXist has continued to innovate and evolve. eXist, while stable and widely used for many years, has now hit a milestone in its history where it can be considered battle-worna veteran, if you like (or as we like to say in software engineering, mature). We have considered writing a book on eXist for the past few years, but we now know that the time is right to share our knowledge with the world. Welcome eXist 2.0.
Perhaps we should first answer this question with another question: Who is eXist for?
eXist aims to meet the requirements of a wide user base, and therefore is probably the most feature-rich product in its class. eXist has been engineered over the years to meet the needs of users ranging from humanities students and professors undertaking interesting linguistic projects, to large international publishers working with millions of documents, to developers wishing to rapidly create document- and data-driven web applications, and most cases in between.
This book aims to meet the needs of a wide audience: from tinkerers, students, professors, and information managers right up to software engineers. This book assumes that you wish to learn and use eXist; if not, you may have bought the wrong book! No familiarity with eXist is assumed; we start with the basics and progresses to more complicated topics. This book does not set out to teach XML, XPath, XQuery, XSLT, XForms, or any of the other XML technologies. While of course you may gain an understanding of them from this book, there are other books and online resources available that focus on these topics as their raison d'tre. We assume that you have a working knowledge of, or access to learning resources for, XML technologies.
As always, beginners should start at the beginning, while those who already have some experience with eXist may find new insights in Chapters 4 to 6 onward. We hope you will find the book an excellent reference resource.
Should you be looking for books on XML technologies, in our experience and from the feedback of colleagues and beginners we have met, it is a good idea to have a copy of .
The following typographical conventions are used in this book:
ItalicIndicates new terms, URLs, email addresses, file- and pathnames, database collections, and file extensions.
Constant widthUsed for program listings, as well as within paragraphs to refer to program elements such as variable or function names, module names, data types, environment variables, statements, and keywords. Also used for commands and command-line output, database user and group names, and permission modes.
Constant width italicShows text that should be replaced with user-supplied values or by values determined by context.
$EXIST_HOMEWhile $EXIST_HOME typically follows the Unix-like syntactical expression of an environment variable, it is used throughout the book to refer to the location where you have installed eXist, whether that be on a Windows/Linux/Mac or any other type of system. The corresponding expression for referencing the equivalent environment variable on Windows platforms would be %EXIST_HOME%.

The XQuery specification as published by the W3C does not define a particular filename extension for XQuery files. The specification, however, does define two different types of XQuery module:
XQuery main moduleA main module is defined as having a query body. Simply put, this means that an XQuery processor can directly evaluate the XQuery code in this file.
XQuery library moduleA library module does not have a query body and must start with a module declaration. Again, simply put, this means that an XQuery processor cannot directly evaluate a library module; rather, the library module must be directly or indirectly imported into a main module.
As a result, there has been a proliferation of different filename extensions used for XQuery files, including .xq, .xql, .xqm, .xqy, .xql, .xqws, and .xquery. Each XQuery implementation vendor, and even individual XQuery developers, seem to have their own ideas about XQuery file naming. Some projects differentiate between main and library modules by using two different file extensions, but which two is entirely inconsistent across projects. Other projects opt to use a single file extension and apply it to both main and library modules. This proliferation of different file extensions can be disorienting and leads to confusion when youre approaching an existing code base.
eXist recognizes and supports XQuery files with any of the aforementioned file extensions, and will load and store them correctly into its database as XQuery. However, we believe that such an accumulation of different file extensions for what is effectively one or two (main and library) types of file is ridiculous and raises the barrier to truly reusable and portable XQuery code within projects, between projects, and across XQuery implementations.
