Xform:submission

simone_bernardi
In the example Xform-Bookcast there is the  submit save that reference ago to:

<xforms:submission id="save-submission" ref="instance('books-instance')"
                    action="/exist/rest/db/orbeon/xforms-bookcast/books.xml"
                    method="put" replace="none">

the instruction "action="/exist/rest/db/orbeon/xforms-bookcast/books.xml""
what makes?

I do not succeed to understand where they come saves the data to you, because the directory (/exist/rest/db/orbeon/xforms-bookcast/books.xml) he does not exist

Hi Simone,

action="/exist/rest/db/orbeon/xforms-bookcast/books.xml"

This actions saves your books.xml into the internal exist-database. The
files are stored to "ops/WEB-INF/exist-data/" but you won't find your file
there either, cause exist stores them to its own database-files (*.dbx)

So the URL in the action discribes, to store "into exist" over the
"rest"-protokol where "db" is the root-element of the database-tree. Taking
a look inside your exist-db isn't that easy. But you can find more
information on the homepage from exist itself. There you also find an GUI to
connect to an exist-db, acting just like a browser. But if you want to use
it, you first have to add some additional lines to your tomcat/web-xml and
restart your server.

I myself do not use the internal exist-db, but an own installation of the
hole exist-suit you find on the own homepage. I do that beacuse i wanted to
use the GUI and first worked with exist before ops. Both are equal, but to
understand how exist works and to get in touch with xquery, there you'll
find many examples how to work with exist. So i prefer the external
exist-db.
http://exist.sourceforge.net/

Hope that helps a bit, but i'm a newby myself working with ops and exist.
Have fun,
Marcus
