truffle exec with arguments

Can I pass argument to js script executed using “truffle exec”?

Example:

script.js module.exports = (callback, arg) => { console.log(arg); callback(); }

exeucution truffle exec “./script.js” “argument”

expected output argument

actual output undefined

bump to reopen. It’s quite annoying to deal with potential variations in executing like:

truffle exec script.js arg1
truffle exec script.js --network live arg1
truffle exec script.js --network live --compile arg1
truffle exec script.js arg1 --network live --compile

These should really all do the same thing as far as the script is concerned. It’d be nice to make it easier on the developer and provide an array of arguments. I’d support a function signature that looked like this…

module.exports = function(callback, CLIArgs) {}

You can use process.argv for this, but note the offset - I believe this will be interpreted as node /path/to/truffle/cli.js exec <args...>, so args start at index 4.

Closing this. Feel free to open a new issue for feature requests to expand on this, if it doesn’t meet your needs. Thanks!
