About:

talend-task is a Python CLI tool for remotely running Talend ETL jobs (tasks).

You can specify a job to run by its name (using the --job argument) or it will list all available jobs and let you select which one to run.

---

Installation:

Install from PyPI:

pip install talend-task

---

Configuration:

You need to configure an Access Token (generated in Talend Management Console) and the API endpoint URL you will connect to (i.e. https://api.<region>.talend.com).

These are setup using the API_URL and ACCESS_TOKEN environment variables:

$ export API_URL=<endpoint URL>
$ export ACCESS_TOKEN=<access token>

You can also set this in an .env file in the current directory.

For example:

API_URL=https://api.us-west.cloud.talend.com
ACCESS_TOKEN=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

CLI Options:

$ talend_task --help

options:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  --wait      wait for task to complete and show status
  --job JOB   Talend ETL task name

---

Usage Examples:

Launch the CLI to select a job to run:

talend_task

Run a job named "MyJob":

talend_task --job MyJob

Run a job named "MyJob" and wait (poll) until the job completes:
