• Projecting tuples (like table rows) out of documents
• Single transactions and multi-statement transactions for database changes
• Writing, reading, and deleting graphs and executing SPARQL queries over graphs
• Extending the built-in services or evaluating or invoking your own JavaScript or XQuery on the server
• Basic, digest, certificate, Kerberos, and SAML authentication
• Import libraries as JavaScript mjs modules
• Data Services First - MarkLogic's support for microservices
• Optic query DSL, document matching, relevance, multiple groups
• Generate query based views, redaction on rows
• Data Movement SDK - move large amounts of data into, out of, or within a MarkLogic cluster

Getting Started

You can install the marklogic package as a dependency for your Node.js project using npm:

npm install marklogic --save

For Windows OS please use the below for Node Client 2.9.1:

npm install marklogic --save --ignore-scripts

With the marklogic package installed, the following inserts two documents in a collection into the Documents database using MarkLogic's built-in REST server at port 8000:

const marklogic = require('marklogic');

const db = marklogic.createDatabaseClient({
  host:     'localhost',
  port:     '8000',
  database: 'Documents',
  user:     'admin',
  password: 'admin',
  authType: 'DIGEST',
  // enableGzippedResponses is optional and can be set to true in order to request MarkLogic to compress the response for better performance,
    // the client will automatically decompress the response before it returns a value.
  enableGzippedResponses: true
});

// For MarkLogic Cloud
const db = marklogic.createDatabaseClient({
    apiKey:   'changeme',
    host:     'example.beta.marklogic.com',
    authType: 'cloud',
    // basePath is optional.
    basePath: '/marklogic/test',
    // accessTokenDuration (in seconds) is optional and can be used to customize the expiration of the access token.
    accessTokenDuration: 10,
    // enableGzippedResponses is optional and can be set to true in order to request MarkLogic to compress the response for better performance,
    // the client will automatically decompress the response before it returns a value.
    enableGzippedResponses: true
});

// For OAUTH
const db = marklogic.createDatabaseClient({
    host:     'localhost',
    port:     '8000',
    authType: 'oauth',
    oauthToken: ''
});

db.createCollection(
  '/books',
  {author: 'Beryl Markham', ...},
  {author: 'WG Sebald',     ...}
  )
.result(function(response) {
    console.log(JSON.stringify(response, null, 2));
  }, function (error) {
    console.log(JSON.stringify(error, null, 2));
  });
