Running Talend jobs with Python


I'm trying to automate some stuff I would otherwise have to do manually, so I can run one python script instead of taking a whole bunch of steps. I want to find a way to run a Talend job from the python script.

How do I accomplish this? Is it even possible?


Solution

  • Oops! sorry.
    From the Studio, build the job to get an autonomous job you can launch from command line.
    Extract the files from the generated archive.
    Search for folder "script/yourJobname".
    Check the syntax from one of the .bat or .sh depending of which one you prefer. Launch the jar file using subprocess.call (or other way to execute a jar file from Python).

    Hope this helps.
