xdmp:multipart-decode

xdmp:multipart-decode(
   $separator as xs:string,
   $data as binary(),
   [$options as element()]
) as node()*

Summary

Extract the parts from a multipart encoding. The first item in the sequence is a manifest, and the remaining items are the decoded parts.

An attempt will be made to determine the type of content based on headers such as the part's content-type. If possible, an element will be returned, falling back to an xs:string, and finally binary().

The options control how the parts are unpacked, and are similar to xdmp:zip-get - default-namespace, repair, format, default-language, and encoding. The options apply to all parts, so specifying a format of binary will cause all parts to be returned as binary, and specifying text will cause all parts to be returned as xs:string if possible, falling back to binary() if necessary. This is useful if different parts need different options, in which case the resulting strings can each be passed to xdmp:unquote() with appropriate options.

Parameters
separator The string that is to be used as a separator.
data The data (as a binary node) to be decoded.
options Decode options.
