Calling MongoImport From Java

I have written a .bat file (as I am testing on Windows for now):-

echo Program Starts mongoimport.exe --host 127.0.0.1 -d myDB -c things --type csv --file
D:\MOCK_DATA.csv --fields id,Name.f_name,Name.l_name,email,gender echo Program Ends

  • I kept the .bat file in /bin folder of MongoDB.

  • The .bat file works fine if I call it directly from Windows Command Prompt.

  • But when I call the .bat file using Java Program, the mongoImport doesn't run. The program doesn't give any errors also. Here's my Java Program:-
    ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder("Path to my .bat File"); Process process = pb.start(); BufferedReader is = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(process.getInputStream())); StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(); String line = null; while ((line = is.readLine()) != null) { builder.append(line); builder.append(System.getProperty("line.separator")); } return builder.toString();

Following is the Java Console output: echo Program Starts Program Starts mongoimport.exe --host 127.0.0.1 -d myDB -c things --type csv --file D:\MOCK_DATA.csv --fields id,Name.f_name,Name.l_name,email,gender echo Program Ends Program Ends

I found the solution to the problem. Following lines helped in identifying the error:-
pb.redirectErrorStream(true);
pb.redirectOutput(new File("D:\\output.txt"));

The issue was that I didn't set the 'directory' where .bat file commands will run.
pb.directory(new File("\\MongoDB\\Server\\3.2\\bin"));
