Is it possible to set the output file name in the script

Is it possible to set the output file name in the script

[Cecil Westerhof]

I am using a command line parameter to change the generated output. Is
it also possible to set the output file name depending on the
parameter?

That is on the command line. Then you need to give two parameters. Not
a very big problem, but I would prefer one parameter. I like DRY. Less
that can go wrong.

not possible but you can access the outputfilename at the tex and lua end

I have now (I need to use jobfilename, because I get an error when I
use outputfilename):
    \def\outputfilename{\jobfilename -\getvariable{meta}{type}}
    \def\outputfilenametwo{\jobfilename -\getvariable{meta}{type}}

When displaying outputfilenametwo I see that it is filled with the
correct value, but the output is still written to the same file.

The following script does what I want:
    #!/usr/bin/env bash

    set -o errexit
    set -o nounset

    declare -r DEFAULT=cecil
    declare -r DIR=${HOME}/Documenten/CV
    declare -r FILE=CV-Cecil-Westerhof
    declare -r SCRIPTNAME=$(basename ${0})

    declare RESULT
    declare TYPE

    if [[ ${#} -ge 1 ]] ; then
      TYPE=${1}; shift
    else
      TYPE=${DEFAULT}
    fi
    readonly TYPE

    if [[ ${#} -ne 0 ]] ; then
        echo "USAGE: ${SCRIPTNAME} [TYPE]"
        exit 1
    fi

    cd ${DIR}
    RESULT=${FILE}
    if [[ ${TYPE} != ${DEFAULT} ]] ; then
        RESULT+=-${TYPE}
    fi
    readonly RESULT

    context --CVType=${TYPE} --result=${RESULT} CV-Cecil-Westerhof

There is only one problem. If I first generate the default one and
after that a specific one, the default one does not exist anymore. I
suppose that when --result is used, first the pdf with the same name
as the tex file is generated and then moved. A little nuisance, but I
can live with it.

That can be solved by renaming the tex-file to CV.tex. The script is now:
    #!/usr/bin/env bash

    set -o errexit
    set -o nounset

    declare -r DEFAULT=cecil
    declare -r DIR=${HOME}/Documenten/CV
    declare -r FILE=CV
    declare -r SCRIPTNAME=$(basename ${0})

    declare RESULT=CV-Cecil-Westerhof
    declare TYPE

    if [[ ${#} -ge 1 ]] ; then
      TYPE=${1}; shift
    else
      TYPE=${DEFAULT}
    fi
    readonly TYPE

    if [[ ${#} -ne 0 ]] ; then
        echo "USAGE: ${SCRIPTNAME} [TYPE]"
        exit 1
    fi

    cd ${DIR}
    if [[ ${TYPE} != ${DEFAULT} ]] ; then
        RESULT+=-${TYPE}
    fi
    readonly RESULT

    context --CVType=${TYPE} --result=${RESULT} ${FILE}

In CV-Cecil-Westerhof.tex you can check the result file:

\starttext
output file: \systemparameter{file} or \cldcontext{document.arguments.result}
\stoptext

A known bug: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2008/035125.html

You could add it to the tracker: http://tracker.luatex.org/

Nope, when the parameter is cecil, I want to add nothing. Also I am a
little paranoid, so I want the script to not execute when there are to
many parameters.

I already went around it. But it would not hurt to report it.
