Get current project directory

[n999]

Hello

I am using the Talend Studio with Git.

we are using one git repository per project.

When I checkout a project and create a local branch it seems to create a folder called 

/Users/me/talend-workspace/.repositories/1942550470/branches/develop/TESTPROJECT

I was wondering if I can get this file location through the studio?

Looking through system envs and properties I can see that I get a 

HOME=/Users/me

env but not much else.

Is there a way of getting more/all of this path programmatically....?

seems impossible to construct given the numerical folder....?

cheers

Hi.

I would like to load some part of my context (Project wide properties that
are fixed across environments) from an external file at the root of my git
repository.

Hi Nomit
I have asked to our developers and was told that it is impossible to get this path programmatically in a job. For shared property file, we would suggest to put it to a server like FTP server, S3 server etc, download the file and load the value of context variable in the beginning of job, or store the value in database.

That would be 

System.getProperty("user.dir")

That gives you the folder of where your talend runtime is but not necessarily where your workspace/projects are.

Hi, in case anyone still needs this (we did !), you can get this directory by accessing the system properties :

System.getProperty("java.class.path")

Inside the classpath are several semicolon separated folders, one of which contains the

/Users/me/talend-workspace/.repositories/1942550470/branches/develop/TESTPROJECT

directory

Cheers !
