Pass fille path in Shell Script

Retrobatch
1

I am trying to run a shell script on an external application but I get the error
Invalid file or directory path:
How do I pass the file path onto an application. I have tried the below

#!/bin/bash
#The last argument given to a script is the last known path of the image Retrobatch is passing to it.
imagePath=“${@: -1}”
/Applications/Topaz\ Photo\ AI.app/Contents/MacOS/Topaz\ Photo\ AI --cli --overwrite “$imagePath”

If you add something like:

echo "$imagePath" >> /tmp/path_info.txt

before you call the Topaz tool, what’s the path that is is showing up in the /tmp/path_info.txt file?

Hi,
The file /tmp/path_info.txt is blank when I add this in. I get this message from the log window

Checking if log directory should be pruned. Currently have 11 log files.
Number of logs exceeds max number to keep ( 10 ). Cleaning excess logs.
QObject::moveToThread: Cannot move objects with a parent

It sounds like Topaz Photo AI isn’t getting any files passed to it (and the logging info stuff is from it, not Retrobatch).

Do you have the Run at: argument set to “Every Image” in the Shell node properties?
