DNR File - execute command with filename

I am attempting to create a Deploy and Run File in a deployment and want to run a command based on certain mask but want to pass the failname to the command. This seems like this functionality should exist but it does not seem obvious how to get that information.

I was thinking the command could be something like:

Command:
"any command" $filename^

Anybody tried to do this?

How do you want to fill that variable ?

It could be a deployment variable, i.e.

script cmd="mail me@here.com < $filename^"

and you use a command like this

iwod ...... -k filename=thisone.txt

I know how to work the command line variables... but I want it to be based on what actually gets pushed... so..

if filename filename1.txt gets pushed this time based on the source and target parameters I want it to run a command like for example:
chmod u+x filename1.txt

but I need it to run for each file that gets pushed....

So not based on a static passed in variable but based on the actual filenames that get deployed.

Oh, OK.

What you need to do then is parse the XML of the manifest. There is a PM on the receiver to help you do that.

So instead of running

chomd +w foo

write a perlscript that iterate through the XML

something like:



my($xml) = IWXML::GetLogDataFromSTDIN();

my(@file_new_ok)     = $xml->GetItems("FILE","NEW","COMPLETED");
my(@file_mod_ok)     = $xml->GetItems("FILE","UPDATE","COMPLETED");

foreach (@file_new_ok) { `chmod u+x $_`}
foreach (@file_mod_ok) { `chmod u+x $_`}

Better ?
