Passing Parameters

Spectre scripts pass parameters using the pass-parameter tag. The following snippets layout basic options:

  pass-parameter <parameter_name> <value_string>

 

  pass-parameter <parameter_name> {
    all-values
  }

 

  pass-parameter <parameter_name> {
    values <strings of values> 
  }

 

  pass parameter <parameter_name>{
    values-extended <values list> type=<type string> 
  }

Where <parameter_name> is replaced with the name of the parameter in quotes, <value_string> is replaced with a value in quotes, <strings of values> is replaced with one or more values in quotes, <values list> is replaced with a list of actual values, and <type string> is replaced with one of the following: date, double, fixed100, integer, null, string, or datetime.

For example:

  pass-parameter "Year" "2016"

 

  pass-parameter "process-month" {
    all-values
  }

 

  pass-parameter "District" select=true {
    values "West" "South" 
  }

 

  pass parameter "sublevels" {
    values-extended "a-4" "a-5" "a-6" type="string" 
  }
