Data Integration 4 kitchen param

[dramis]

Hello,

I made a simple job getting a parameter write it to log and quit.

It's working fine with data integration but when i run the job in command line with kitchen, the parmeter is not set.

I got this issus with osx and linux.


Thanks for your help.

Well, you have to specify the parameter value as a kitchen parameter (-param:PARAMETER=VALUE)

I am having the same issue:

Created a job with a parameter ZipFileName, default NONE. Added a write to log step with:
ZipFileName=${ZipFileName}

Run it:
/opt/pentaho/design-tools/pdi-ee-4.0.0-GA/kitchen.sh -norep -file=TestFile.kjb -level=Detailed -param:ZipFileName=ker.zip

Output: ZipFileName=NONE

Quoting the parameter had no impact:
/opt/pentaho/design-tools/pdi-ee-4.0.0-GA/kitchen.sh -file=/var/pdi-assets/bnsfldw/Cargowise/TestFile.kjb "-param:ZipFileName=ker.zip"

No benefits from making the parameter name all upper-case (it is linux after all) or removing the extra options from the comman line.

Ok, this is REALLY odd. Adding "-listparam" to the end of the command shows that the parameter is being picked up:

/opt/pentaho/design-tools/pdi-ee-4.0.0-GA/kitchen.sh -norep -file=TestFile.kjb -level=Detailed -param:ZipFileName=ker.zip -listparam

INFO 25-06 13:44:55,154 - Using "/tmp/vfs_cache" as temporary files store.
INFO 25-06 13:44:55,500 - Kitchen - Kitchen
Parameter: ZipFileName=ker.zip, default=NONE : Full path name and file name of zip archive

The exact same command line without the "-listparam" still returns that it has no value in the variable.

Are we accessing the parameter value within the job in the wrong way?

Filing a support case for this one. Will post any resolution. (Case 00011014)

The parameter on command line work in KEttle version 3.2.3.

Check if you have this:

1) Append
"-param:PARAM_NAME_1=PARAM_VALUE_1 -param:PARAM_NAME_2=PARAM_VALUE_2"
at end of kitchen command ?

2) That params are included in the job properties with right click + properties on the job canvas.

Dont work with

"-param:start_date=20100606"
