Talend Studio allows you to
create multiple connections in one go using a connection creation script.
The following example demonstrates how to create a local connection and a Talend Administration Center connection in one go using a
script.
Procedure
-
Create a script file to define the connection details in JSON format.
In this example, name the script myConnections.json put
it in the Talend Studio
installation directory.
[
{
"name": "localConnection",
"description": "My local connection",
"local": true,
"user": "user@talend.com",
"workSpace": "D:\\Talend\\workspace"
},
{
"name": "remoteConnection",
"description": "My TAC connection",
"local": false,
"user": "studiouser@company.com",
"password": "mypassword",
"workSpace": "D:\\Talend\\remoteworkspace",
"url": "http://192.128.8.88:8081/org.talend.administrator"
}
]
Warning: Make sure that the
path of your workspace directory contains no space or special characters, which may
cause Talend Studio to fail to work because
of JVM compatibility issues.

In the Talend Studio
installation directory, run the following command:

Talend-Studio-win-x86_64.exe -nosplash -application org.talend.commandline.GenerateConnection -consoleLog -data commandline-workspace -f myConnections.json
-
Launch Talend Studio.

In the Talend Studio login
window, click the Manage Connections button to open the
Connections window and check your connections.

The connections defined in the script file are created and shown in
the Connections window.
