This is the repository for entity services, a feature in MarkLogic 9. Its code is shipped with MarkLogic server, but this repository is used for testing the feature, and also contains examples code.
- See
entity-services-examplesfor how to use Entity Services.
It contains several sub-projects configured to build with gradle.
-
one public API server module written in XQuery, several implementation modules. This code is shipped with the server. Unit tests are here under
entity-services. -
functional tests in
entity-services-functionaltests -
end-to-end scenario tests in
entity-services-e2e
To develop with this project, you'll need
- to clone this repository
Once you have cloned this repository, you'll use this code by making a symbolic link from either:
- A checkout of MarkLogic Server trunk svn
or
- A built and installed current nightly MarkLogic package. If you've used this
method, remove or rename the entity-services directory at
/opt/MarkLogic/Modules/MarkLogic/entity-services(on windows it's something likeC:\Program Files\MarkLogic\Modules\MarkLogic)
For either method of server development, you'll need to symbolically link
./entity-services/src/main/xdmp/entity-services
to
{MarkLogicdirectory}/Modules/MarkLogic/entity-services
Now, when you import and use entity services code, it will be the copy served from this local checkout.
To set up a server for running tests,
./gradlew mlDeploy from this directory (/entity-services)
This command takes the configuration at gradle.properties and creates forests, databases and servers for running the tests. It also sets up a separate database and server for examples.
