basexserver(1)							 The XML Database						    basexserver(1)

NAME
       basexserver - XML database system and XPath/XQuery processor (server mode)

SYNOPSIS
       basexserver [-cdeipSz] [stop]

DESCRIPTION
       basexserver starts the server mode of the native XML database system basex(1) on default port 1984.

OPTIONS
       A short description of option can be obtained from

	   $ basexserver -h

       or by browsing http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Startup_Options#BaseX_Server

USER MANAGEMENT
       On first startup a user 'admin' with default password 'admin' exists (make sure to change this)!

       Admin permissions are needed to execute one of the following processes.

       o  Creating user 'test' with password 'test':

	  > CREATE USER test test

       As global permissions valid options are 'none', 'read', 'write', 'create' and 'admin'.

       o  Revoking all global permissions from user 'test':

	  > GRANT none TO test

       Valid local permissions are 'none', 'read' and 'write'.

       o  Granting write permission on database 'factbook' to user 'test':

	   > GRANT write ON factbook TO test

       Note:  Local  permissions  overwrite  global  permissions. As a consequence, the 'test' user will only be allowed to access (i.e., read and
       write) the 'factbook' database. If no local permissions are set, the global rights are inherited.

       o  Showing global permissions:

	   > SHOW USERS

       o  Showing local permissions on database 'factbook':

	  > SHOW USERS ON factbook

       o  Dropping of user 'test':

	  > DROP USER test

       Further details on user management are to be found in the BaseX Documentation Wiki (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/User_Management).
