Question

How do I tell FME to send the full path as a string and NOT $(FME_MF_DIR)?

Hello,

I have this problem when trying to open a directory with a python parameter.

The line in my script causing the error:

f=open(os.path.join(FME_MacroValues['path_orders'],ftp.nlst()[0]),'w')

IOError: No such file or directory: '$(FME_MF_DIR)orders\\\\1234567.WI02290100.vg'

How do I tell FME to send the full path as a string and NOT $(FME_MF_DIR)?

I Solved this by accessing the same dictionary FME_MacroValues['FME_MF_DIR']

path = FME_MacroValues['path_orders']

if re.search('\\$\\(',path):

_path = path.split('(')[1].split(')')[0]

_path_rest = path.split(')')[1]

path = os.path.join(FME_MacroValues[_path],_path_rest)
