Hello guys! I would like to know if it is possible to "extract" the file path of a partitioned dateset catalog used as an input in a node. I tried to look in the internet for alternatives but I couldn't find a solution for it.

So this has come up before

Hello @User ! First of all, thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get it working. However I came with two possible solutions for my problem:

so I'm not sure either is 'Kedrific'

Just to contextualise: my last node writes in a SQL data set some information calculated in the pipeline and also needs to write the path where is stored a STL (Also generated by the pipeline). The path in my database is important because the mesh is not stored directly in a SQL table . Since this mesh hast to be loaded in the front-end, we have to have its path as a reference. In my point of view, hook is rather a way to observe the pipeline's flow and, in my understanding, in your suggestion the hook is playing the role of a node that transforms data. In that way , wouldn't it be more "kedrific" to use a node instead of a hook? Or did i understand it wrong?

We like to ensure that the nodes have no knowledge of IO

hmm now i understand why the solutions aren't kedrific. I will give it some thought and find a way to solve my problem "kedrificly".

Pleasure
