<p>BaseX offers a standalone console mode in which all [[Commands]]
and XQuery queries can be executed.</p>
==Run the console version==
<code>java -cp BaseX*.jar org.basex.BaseX</code>
==First Steps==
#Start a console and run BaseX.
#Have a look at the different commands with 'help'.
#Create a database with your xml file(s).
#Run your query and receive the results.
==Start of BaseX in console mode==
<p>
Just enter: <code>java -cp BaseX.jar org.base.BaseX</code> on the command line.<br/>
The Java option <code>-Xmx...</code> reserves more memory, and the <code>-h</code> flag of BaseX lists all available flags:
</p>
<pre>
java -Xmx512m -cp BaseX.jar org.basex.BaseX -h
Usage: BaseX [-diosuvVwz] [-cq] [file]
[file] Execute XQuery file
-c<cmd> Execute database command(s)
-d Activate debugging mode
-i<input> Open initial file or database
-o<file> Write output to file
-q<expr> Execute XQuery expression
-s<pars> Set serialization parameter(s)
-u Write updates back to original files
-v/V Show (all) process info
-w Keep whitespaces from source files
-z Skip output of results
</pre>
==Working with the BaseX Console==
<p>After starting the BaseX Console you can type in <code>help</code> to get a list of all
[[Commands|BaseX commands]]. Several commands can be separated by semicolons.</p>
<p>
To evaluate commands without entering the console mode, you can use the
<code>-c</code> option on the command line:
</p>
<pre>
java -cp BaseX.jar org.basex.BaseX -Vc "create db input input.xml; xquery /"
Database 'input' created in 53.64 ms.
