Hello, I've got a native script written in Java and I would like to test this when my end-to-end integration tests run. The problem is that I do not know how to register the script with my test node. In my application a test node is created with a temporary directory in /tmp. It will be different for each test run, so it's not very easy to ensure that the native script exists within that folder. Maybe I will just have to faff around copying it into the directory for each test node, though. Any thoughts would be really helpful. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
