Parameterized year, month and day for workflow

["Kravtsov, Eugene" <EK...@luxoft.com>]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to do FS action (in Oozie workflow) like:

<mkdir path='/my/application/folder/${YEAR}/${MONTH}/${DAY}/data'/>

Where ${YEAR}, ${MONTH}, ${DAY} current year, month number and day in month.
Could you please pont me how to do this in a right way?
Are there any EL expressions suitable for that?


Thank you,
  Eugene.

PS:
Sorry if asking already answered question - I was not able to find answer yet.

Hi Eugene,

Your workflow will be able to get such parametrized values only if it is
started by an Oozie 'coordinator'. Then the values are resolved based on
the coordinator's frequency.

Refer docs:
http://oozie.apache.org/docs/3.3.1/CoordinatorFunctionalSpec.html#a6.8._Par
ameterization_of_Coordinator_Application


You will need to pass from your coordinator's <action> tag some
<configuration> properties like the following:
<configuration>
            <property>
              <name>mytime</name>
              <value>${coord:formatTime(coord:nominalTime(),
'yyyy-MM-dd')}</value>
            </property>
         </configuration>


By specifying a date format of your choice, you will have the fields -
year, month and day available to you as string ${myTime}.
