Pass additional parameters to karate-config.js via command line via Maven

Question

I have additional settings that I need to pass to Karate when running via Maven that will be available in karate-config.js. Currently I can pass in a string using the karate.env property - is it necessary to encode my parameters as a JSON object and pass them in via this one property or can I do something like:

mvn test -DargLine="-Dkarate.env='production' -Dkarate.clientid='1234567890' ...

Such that I can then reference karate.clientid in karate-config.js where I can save it into the returned config object.

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here...

Answer 1

Yes ! Refer to the documentation for karate.properties['karate.clientid'].
