    <configuration name="synopsx">
        <output name="html" value="synopsx_html"/>
        <output name="oai" value="synopsx_oai"/>
    </configuration>

Project database

OPEN DB 'myproject'

ADD myproject_data.xml (or ADD TO 'myproject/' myproject_data.zip)

OPEN DB 'config'

ADD myproject.xml

    <!-- config file for 'myproject' -->
    <configuration name="myproject">
        <!-- The @value attribute gives the parent xqm module namespace -->
        <parent value="synopsx"/>  
        <!-- The @value attribute gives the output xqm module namespace -->
        <output name="html" value="myproject"/>  
        <!-- Uncomment this line to overwrite synopx oai default functions -->
        <!--<output name="oai" value="myproject_oai_namespace"/>-->
    </configuration>

You can also interact with BaseX with the XQuery syntax for the installation process : http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module

Config database

    <!-- create the config database (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module#db:create) -->
    db:create("config")

    <!-- open the config database (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module#db:open) -->
    db:open("config")

    <!-- add the XML sequence to the config database (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module#db:add) -->
    db:add("config",
    <configuration name="synopsx">
        <output name="html" value="synopsx_html"/>
        <output name="oai" value="synopsx_oai"/>
    </configuration>, "synopsx.xml" )

Project database

    <!-- create the project database (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module#db:create) -->
    db:create("myproject")

    <!-- open the project database (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module#db:open) -->
    db:open("myproject")

<!-- Add XML data to the project database -->

    <!-- add the project's config XML sequence to the config database (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Database_Module#db:add)

    db:open("config")

    db:add("config",
    <configuration name="myproject">
        <!-- The @value attribute gives the parent xqm module namespace -->
        <parent value="synopsx"/>  
        <!-- The @value attribute gives the output xqm module namespace -->
        <output name="html" value="myproject"/>  
        <!-- Uncomment this line to overwrite synopx oai default functions -->
        <!--<output name="oai" value="myproject_oai_namespace"/>-->
