I’m thrilled to announce MarkLogic 4.1 and with it my project App Services, is here. Top-of-the-post props go out to Colleen, David, and Ryan who made it happen.<\/p>\n

You might already know that MarkLogic Server is a super-powerful database slash search engine powering projects like MarkMail<\/a>. (But did you know there’s a free<\/a>-as-in-beer edition?) The next step is to make it easier to use and build your own apps on top of the server.<\/p>\n

The first big piece is the Search API, which lets you do “Google-style” searches over your content like this:<\/p>\n

search:search(“MP3 OR iPod AND color:black -Zune”)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The built-in grammar includes AND, OR, parens for grouping, – for negation, quotations for phrases, and easy ways to define facets like date:today or author:”Bill Shakespeare” or GPA:3.95. By passing in additional options, you can redefine the grammar and control all aspects of the search and how the results are returned. Numerous grass-roots efforts at doing someting like this had begun to spring up, so the time was right to come out with an officially-sanctioned API. For those developers who haven’t seen the light yet and don’t fancy XQuery, an API like this is a huge benefit.<\/p>\n

The next piece builds on the Search API to offer a graphical App Builder tool that produces a simplified MarkMail-type app around your content. It looks like this:<\/p>\n

\"App<\/p>\n

The App Builder itself is based on XForms via the excellent XSLTForms<\/a> library and REST, making it a full-blown XRX application.<\/p>\n

Lots more info, videos, screencasts, articles, and more are coming soon.<\/p>\n

You can start playing with this now by visiting the download page. Under the Community License, you can put 10 gigs of content into it for noncommercial production free-as-in-beer.<\/p>\n

Enjoy! I’ll be catching my breath for the next two months*. -m<\/p>\n
