[jira] [Commented] (PIG-2165) Need a way to deal with params and param_file in embedded pig in python

["Julien Le Dem (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2165?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13065725#comment-13065725 ] 

Julien Le Dem commented on PIG-2165:
------------------------------------

I see two options:
- One way would be to use the pig parameters and assign the values to global variables. 
{code}pig -p foo=bar myscript.py{code}
and then in the script, the variable foo contains "bar"

- The other would be to populate sys.argv with the command line parameters
{code}sys.argv = [ "pig", "-p", "foo=bar", "myscript.py" ]{code}

> I am using embedded pig in python and cannot pass param key value pairs to the python script. The only way to pass params  seem to be by passing it in the bind command.
> Is there a plan to have command line parameters to a pig embedded python script? Similar needs for param_file and using the environment variables.
> Thanks
