es:database-properties-generate

es:database-properties-generate(
   $model as map:map
) as object-node()

Summary

This function is deprecated and will not be supported in MarkLogic 11.
Generate a database configuration artifact from a basic model. This data facilitates creating range indexes and lexicons required for searching instance data.

Parameters
model A valid basic entity model.

Usage Notes

This function produces JSON database configuration properties that you can use to configure a MarkLogic database. You can use the generated artifact as-is in an ml-gradle project, or customize it slightly for use with the REST Management API.

The configuration data includes a range index definition for each entity type property specified in a es:range-index element in the input model. Similarly, the configuration data includes a word lexicon definition for each property specified in a es:word-lexicon element in the input model. These indexes and lexicon definitions are compatible with the query options you can generate using es:search-options-generate function.

Your application might require additional database configuration. You can use the output of this function as a starting place from which to expand.

(: ==> A database configuration artifact similar to the following, as
 :     a JSON object node. You can use it as-is in an ml-gradle project,
 :     or set the values of the "database-name" and "schema-database"
 :     properties and use it with POST /manage/LATEST/databases to create
 :     a new database with this configuration.
