Description

The ExecuteScript processor currently does not support pointing to python modules.

The Module Directory property is unable to find/process modules it is set to. See below [1] for example

Also, if Module Directory property is set to /usr/lib/python<version number> (or wherever python packages are installed) the processor will AdminYield when flowfile passes through.

 

 

 

[1] Set processor properties:
Script Engine to python
Script Body to

import hello

flowFile = session.get()
flowFile = session.putAttribute(flowFile,"helloKey",hello.hello())
session.transfer(flowFile, REL_SUCCESS)

Module Directory  to /tmp/testModule

where /tmp/testModule has a file in it named hello.py
with the code

def hello():
  return "hello"

and pass a flowfile through.

 

The processor will roll back the session saying `hello` is not defined
