Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to pass the parameter in xml file in UNIX shell script? Post 302943083 by jim mcnamara on Tuesday 5th of May 2015 08:53:19 AM

Your example does not seem to be valid xml. Anyway, assuming it is just a typo what exactly do you have to pass to the process? Something to read from stdin like a stream or file, an environment variable or simply the xml string as a parameter?

I'm guessing xml string : if you flatten the xml string to one line which will not change the meaning of the contents at all - I do not know etl that well so here is a nonsense example:
Code:
etl '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?><ONDEMAND_JOB VERSION="5.1" LOCALE="en_US"><IMPORT_JOBSET TC_CONNECTION_NAME="default" ENVIRONMENT="PRD" USERNAME="Administrator" PASSWORD="AdminPassword" CALENDAR="Main Monthly Calendar" STOP_ON_ERROR_FLAG="true"><ETL_START PERIOD="May 2008" /></IMPORT_JOBSET></ONDEMAND_JOB>'

Note the starting and terminating single quotes - otherwise the shell will try to interpret the xml with bad results.

NAME
CGI::XML - Perl extension for converting CGI.pm variables to/from XML SYNOPSIS
use CGI::XML; $q = new CGI::XML; # convert CGI.pm variables to XML $xml = $q->toXML; $xml = $q->toXML($root); # convert XML to CGI.pm variables $q->toCGI($xml); DESCRIPTION
The CGI::XML module converts CGI.pm variables to XML and vice versa. CGI::XML is a subclass of CGI.pm, so it reads the CGI variables just as CGI.pm would. METHODS
$q = new CGI::XML creates a new instance of CGI::XML. You also have access to all of the methods in CGI.pm. $q->toXML([$root]) where $root is an optional parameter that specifies the root element. By default, toXML will not return a root element. $q->toCGI($xml) where $xml is the XML you would like to convert to CGI.pm parameters. Values in the XML will overwrite any existing values if they exist. NOTE
CGI::XML does not currently handle multiple selections passed from HTML forms. This will be added in a future release. AUTHOR
