Passing CLI parameters from a file

One or more text files may be used to pass some or all the parameters to the CLI. The @ prefix is used followed by the name of the file in the command. The file uses the JVM's default character encoding however file matching or globbing is not supported.

  • Add parameters and values as separate lines.

  • Both short and long parameter names are supported.

  • File paths are relative to the current process. Absolute file paths are supported. Include multiple paths as separate lines.

Example command

java -jar ./nexus-iq-cli*.jar @cli-params.txt

-a
