Running Workflows and Pipelines
You can specify an environment or a project when executing a pipeline or a workflow. By doing so you are automatically configuring metadata, variables without too much fuss.
The easiest example is shown by executing the "complex" pipeline from the Apache Beam examples:
 
-  Windows 
-  Linux, macOS 
hop-run.bat --project samples --file 'beam/pipelines/complex.hpl' --runconfig DirectExpected output:
C:\<YOUR_PATH>\hop>echo off

-DHOP_PLATFORM_RUNTIME=Run -DHOP_AUTO_CREATE_CONFIG=Y
Consolidated parameters to pass to HopRun are
--project samples --file beam/pipelines/complex.hpl --runconfig Direct
Command to start HopRun will be:

2022/12/16 14:27:42 - General - Executing this pipeline using the Beam Pipeline Engine with run configuration 'Direct'To execute an Apache Beam pipeline a lot of information and metadata is needed. Let’s dive into a few fun information tidbits:
-  By referencing the samplesconfig/projects/samples
-  Since we know the location of the project, we can specify pipelines and workflows with a relative path 
-  The project knows where its metadata is stored ( config/projects/samples/metadataDirectconfig/projects/samples/metadata/pipeline-run-configuration/Direct.json
-  This run configuration defines its own pipeline engine specific variables, in this case the output folder : DATA_OUTPUT=${PROJECT_HOME}/beam/output/
-  The output of the samples is as such written to config/projects/samples/beam/output
To reference an environment you can execute using -e--environment
Cloud Storage Configuration
Hop Conf can be used to configure your AWS, Azure and Google Cloud (Cloud Storage and Drive) accounts with Hop through VFS
Azure
Set the account, block increment size for new files and your Azure key
      -aza, --azure-account=<account>
                            The account to use for the Azure VFS
      -azi, --azure-block-increment=<blockIncrement>
                            The block increment size for new files on Azure,
                              multiples of 512 only.
      -azk, --azure-key=<key>
                            The key to use for the Azure VFSGoogle Cloud Storage
Set the path to your Google Cloud service account JSON key file
      -gck, --google-cloud-service-account-key-file=<serviceAccountKeyFile>
                            Configure the path to a Google Cloud service account JSON key fileGoogle Drive
Set the path to your Google Drive credentials JSON file or Google Drive tokens folder.
      -gdc, --google-drive-credentials-file=<credentialsFile>
                            Configure the path to a Google Drive credentials JSON
                              file
      -gdt, --google-drive-tokens-folder=<tokensFolder>
                            Configure the path to a Google Drive tokens folder
