Database files

A database in BaseX consists of several files, which are all bundled in a folder with the database name. All of these files are stored in a BaseXData directory in your home directory. The path can be changed in the GUI via the Options/Preferences menu.

• The two configuration files .basex/.basewin are stored in the same directory. This path cannot be changed by the user.
• The global users are stored in the .basexperm file in the same directory. Local users and permissions are stored in the meta data of the database.
• All log files are stored in text format in the directory BaseXData/.logs.
