karate.exec(['python3', 'filename.py', 'arg']) is ignoring the argument

I have a secretkey declared in karate-config.js file and use the variable in all my feature files, but that is not accessible in filename.py(which is obvious). So, I am using

karate.exec(['python3', 'filename.py', secretkey])

where secretkey is an argument for a function in filename.py. The problem here is karate is ignoring the argument i.e., secretkey. I am trying to access it in filename.py as sys.argv[1] The result is IndexError: list index out of range; because karate is ignoring the argument DEBUG com.intuit.karate - command: [python3, Ingest-snapshot.py]

  • My mistake, I was calling karate.exec('python3 filename.py') in Background. I think I should delete this question, It will be misleading. There is no issue with Karate. – dpedagada Nov 10 '22 at 11:32
