Suppose you’ve built an application using MarkLogic’s Visualization Widgets. At some point you decide you have too many and decide to remove one. I’ve seen a couple cases where someone does an incomplete removal, so I figured it’s worth laying out the steps. This write-up assumes that you’ve built an application using Application Builder, but […]
This post is an update to my earlier tutorial on how to use Roxy with MarkLogic‘s Application Builder. I finally wrapped up a feature that automates the process, so the procedure has changed. I’m working with: MarkLogic 6.0-3.1 (6.0-2+ required) Roxy 1.4 (see the version.txt file in the project’s base directory) Motivation Application Builder makes […]
This tutorial has been superseded by a more recent version, which makes the process easier. I’ve had a couple people ask me how to use Roxy with MarkLogic‘s Application Builder. The answer has changed recently, so I think it’s time to offer a tutorial. I’m writing this with: MarkLogic 6.0-2.3 Roxy 1.4 (see the version.txt file […]

I learned something interesting today, so I thought I’d share. A colleague of mine wanted to figure out how to express a range of dates as a query string for an Application Builder app. These applications use the Search API, so a lot of the search magic is in the options that get passed into the […]
In a recent post, I wrote a tutorial showing how to add a view to an Application Builder-based application. As one step, I made a copy of the rewrite.xqy module under the custom directory so that I had an easy way to add my new view. There was one thing about the approach that I […]
This post is based on how MarkLogic’s Application Builder worked in MarkLogic versions 4 and 5; it does not apply to versions 6+. In my last post, I showed how to add maps to the front page of a MarkLogic Server Application Builder-based application. But what if you want to add a whole new view? […]
Using MarkLogic’s Application Builder makes it a snap to put together an application quickly. Whenever I build an app this way, I feel like I’ve gotten 80% of what I need. This post shows how to take the next step and add a common feature: maps. To illustrate these steps, I’m going to use an […]
