Document replication: quick test

• Setup an ActiveMQ server
• download distribution from http://activemq.apache.org/download.html: The ZIP file for Windows, the TGZ for Unix.
• start server (for testing purposes almost no configuration changes required)
• Setup and configure one or more 'consumer' eXist-db instances
• modify conf.xml as hinted
• create collection /db/replicated
• start servers
• Setup one 'master' eXist-db instance
• start server
• start eXide
• create the collection /db/replicated
• create a collection.xconf' file, store it in /db/replicated`. eXide asks if the file needs to be processed. Please do.
• Test document creation replication
  • execute the following query.
  • verify the 'consumer' instances, each instance should contain 10 documents in /db/replicated

let $doc := <doc>just some data</doc>
for $i in (1000 to 1010)
return
    xmldb:store('/db/replicated', concat('mydoc', $i , ".xml"), $doc)

• Test document removal replication
• execute the following query.
• verify the 'consumer' instances, each instance should contain 0 documents in /db/replicated

for $i in (1000 to 1010)
return
    xmldb:remove('/db/replicated/', concat('mydoc', $i , ".xml"))
