-------------------------------------------------------------------

To provide the recipe properties file on command line and invoking the respective recipe for execution, it is also required to have workflow.xml and recipe template in path. To perform this, I have thought of passing the recipe property file as follows:
{code:java}
$ ./bin/falcon recipe -name hdfs-replication -operation HDFS_REPLICATION -properties <recipe properties file path>
{code}

For execution of recipe, if recipe properties file is provided on command line, look for the respective recipe workflow.xml and template file in the directory path where recipe properties file is located. Also users can still execute the recipe by specifying the directory path through falcon.recipe.path=<recipe directory path> in conf/client.properties. To perform this users can copy the recipe's related files from $FALCON_HOME/data-mirroring/hdfs-replication to accessible directory. 

Similar steps can be performed for Hive replication recipe as well.

Please provide thoughts on the above approach.

For execution of recipe, if recipe.properties file is provided on command line, look for the respective recipe workflow.xml and template file in one of the location on the basis of recipe name:
   a. In the directory path where recipe.properties file is located.
   a. In the $FALCON_HOME/data-mirroring directory.
   b. In the directory path specified through falcon.recipe.path=<recipe directory path>, if specified in conf/client.properties.

Please provide thoughts on the above approach.

> Currently recipe path option can only be specified through client.properties file. We should add an option to provide path for recipes through command line as well.
