Foreword
This book comes at MarkLogic from the opposite direction of my own book, Inside MarkLogic Server (recently updated by Mike Wooldridge). In my book, I aimed to describe MarkLogic’s internals: its data model, indexing system, and operational behaviors. I made the decision to avoid getting into how exactly to accomplish specific goals, because to do so would have to be a book of its own.
This is that book!
In MarkLogic Cookbook, Dave documents a set of MarkLogic recipes: ways to do common things that can be a bit too tricky to remember without a reference by your side. This first installment covers XQuery. Over time, this book will issue additional installments with more recipes and topics.
What you’ll find here today is:
-
Getting the best performance
-
Manipulating maps with the
map:mapdata type -
Viewing security details on documents
-
Managing tasks on the Task Server
We hope you enjoy it. If you have your own ideas (favorite tricks!) that you think should be included in future installments, please send them to recipes@marklogic.com.
