How to execute command present config file?

I have written the following shell script
Code:
#!/bin/bash
file="/home/CSV/data.csv"
badfile="/home/CSV/bad/"
while IFS= read -r line
do
num_fields=`echo "$line" | awk -F'|' '{print NF}'`
field1=`echo "$line" | awk -F'|' '{print $1}'`
	echo $num_fields
	echo $field1
done <"$file"

the code is checking number of fields present and the value of first field. the number of fields can vary in data.csv. I wwant to move these variable and commands into one config file. some thing like this:

Config file:
Code:
file="/home/CSV/data.csv"
badfile="/home/CSV/bad/"
num_fields=`echo "$line" | awk -F'|' '{print NF}'`
field1=`echo "$line" | awk -F'|' '{print $1}'`

Code:
#!/bin/bash
. ./config.cfg
while IFS= read -r line
do
	echo $num_fields
	echo $field1
done <"$file"

by doing this I am able to get the value of variable but not output of unix commands

ATF-SH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						 ATF-SH(1)

NAME
atf-sh [-s shell] -- interpreter for shell-based test programs SYNOPSIS
atf-sh script DESCRIPTION
atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh(3) library. atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by ATF_SHELL. atf-sh executes the inter- preter, loads the atf-sh(3) library and then runs the script. You must consider atf-sh to be a POSIX shell by default and thus should not use any non-standard extensions. The following options are available: -s shell Specifies the shell to use instead of the value provided by ATF_SHELL. ENVIRONMENT
ATF_LIBEXECDIR Overrides the builtin directory where atf-sh is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_PKGDATADIR Overrides the builtin directory where libatf-sh.subr is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. Scripts must not rely on this variable being set to select a specific interpreter. EXAMPLES
Scripts using atf-sh(3) should start with: #! /usr/bin/env atf-sh Alternatively, if you want to explicitly choose a shell interpreter, you cannot rely on env(1) to find atf-sh. Instead, you have to hardcode the path to atf-sh in the script and then use the -s option afterwards as a single parameter: #! /path/to/bin/atf-sh -s/bin/bash ENVIRONMENT
ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. SEE ALSO
atf-sh(3) BSD
