Re: [Exist-development] Confused about permissions and defaults for XQuery files

[Wolfgang M. <wol...@ex...>]

Chris,

a quick way of changing permissions on a collection tree would be to
run a query like the following:

xquery version "1.0";

declare function local:fix-permissions($collection, $permissions,
$xqpermissions) {
    sm:chmod(xs:anyURI($collection), $permissions),
    for $resource in xmldb:get-child-resources($collection)
    return
        if (xmldb:get-mime-type(xs:anyURI((concat($collection, "/",
$resource)))) eq "application/xquery") then
            sm:chmod(xs:anyURI(concat($collection, "/", $resource)),
$xqpermissions)
        else
            sm:chmod(xs:anyURI(concat($collection, "/", $resource)),
$permissions),
    for $child in xmldb:get-child-collections($collection)
    return
        local:fix-permissions(xs:anyURI(concat($collection, "/",
$child)), $permissions, $xqpermissions)
};

local:fix-permissions("/db", "rw-r--r--")

But this doesn't solve the problem if you are constantly uploading new
resources. I wonder how difficult it would be to re-enable the default
collection permissions for now? I'll look at the corresponding
revisions.
