MATLAB: Is there a way to call MATLAB from a Linux command line that would use a command line data file as input

command linelinux

I'd like to automate a process by calling MATLAB from the Linux command line in such a way that the name of the input datafile is on the command line and I can eliminate the gui to locate the input file from my M-code.

Simplistically, I'm looking for a command that would look something like this: matlab my-m-code.m my-input-data-file.csv

Try

./matlab -r "yourScript" and things should work as you expected !

Some examples method 1: ./matlab -nodesktop -nosplash -r disp('sreeram') method 2: ./matlab -automation -r disp('sreeram')

hope this helps

Since you are using -r flag with matlab command, you would not require the pipe symbol to invoke the 'hello.m'. Modifying the command as below might help resolve the issue:

>>sudo ./matlab -r fol1/hello.m -nosplash -nodesktop

MATLAB: Execute matlab files from C sharp

Your -r argument should be the command to execute, such as -r "file" without the .m .

If you also want to pass a reference value, then because it is a script instead of a function, you will need to do so as an assignment, such as

matlab -r "databasename='romulus';file"

Something else you should know when using -r is that it is safer to put in the "quit", and safer yet to ensure that the quit always happens even if there is an error. For example,

matlab -r "try databasename='romulus';file;end;quit"
