We run Kettle from our Java Application. It has its own way of loading configuration from a remote area. In addition, our Java Application sets up and runs the Kettle Core.
I was wondering if system properties can be passed directly into the Kettle Engine, or if they are readily available somehow. Is there a transformation to simply read passed in System Properties?
I haven't been able to find a transformation or any documentation on this, or anyone trying to do this.
Start kettle pdi, create new transformation add "Get variable" step. Press "Get variables" button at bottom and you will see all different variable including the one present system properties.
