[resolved] Execution of .jar with specific parameters

[Dazbellboy]

Hi everyone.
I have a job made in Talend. The job has a tFileList and it iterates on a tFileInputPositional. The tFileInputPositional has the value of ((String)globalMap.get("tFileList_1_CURRENT_FILEPATH"))



And the tFileList has the filemask of "*.FIL"



I need to execute the .jar generated after the build job by the .sh... but I need to send the filemask value of the tFileList in that .sh. The .sh content is this:



But I need add some value like "-fileName=some.FIL" to replace the file mask of the tFileList.
Can I modify the job before build it in order to configure the filemask of the tFileList to be passed as a parameter?

Thanks for your help.

You want a context variable.  Within your Talend job, click on the Contexts tab and add a variable named fileName.  Set the filemask in your tFileList to context.fileName.

Edit your .sh file to add --context_param fileName="some.fil" 

You may not need to edit the .sh file, actually.  I think it would be ok to add the --context_param when you call the .sh

Thank you very much for your help. It works.
