Passing parameters to .tpl from command line

netsnaveen

I am trying to generate .html pages using iwgen command. But from the command line I want to pass a value which I can read in the tpl( consider it as passing a flag ). Is there a way to do it?

Thanks,
Naveen

I haven't tried, but maybe it works with iwpt_compile.ipl

This is easy to do. When you call the publish command add the following to the end of your statement:
-iw_pt-arg parameter value

Where parameter is the name of a parameter you wish to pass and value is... well the value.

Here is an example
[CMD]
iwperl c:\iw-home\bin\iwpt_compile.ipl -pt ptfile -ofile outputfile -iw_pt-arg xml_summary summary_list.xml

[ptfile]
$xml_summary = $iw_arg{"xml_summary"};

In the presentation template (called ptile, substitute a full path) I would just grab whatever is passed in from the presentation template arguments. In this case it is a xml_summary file which is then used in the PT to generate another output page.

I was checking for responses and noticed you wanted to know if it was possible with iwgen, not the iwpt_compile.ipl. Then the anwser would be NO. There shouldn't be any reason why you couldn't use the compile command since iwgen calls it anyway.
