Spark properties file read

Question

I tried to read a properties file in spark where my file location is available while run the job getting below error code is

object runEmpJob {    
  def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {

    println("starting emp job")
    val props = ConfigFactory.load()
    val envProps = props.getConfig("C:\\Users\\mmishra092815\\IdeaProjects\\use_case_1\\src\\main\\Resource\\filepath.properties")

    System.setProperty("hadoop.home.directory", "D:\\SHARED\\winutils-master\\hadoop-2.6.3\\bin")

    val spark = SparkSession.builder().
         appName("emp dept operation").
         master(envProps.getString("Dev.executionMode")).
         getOrCreate()
    val empObj = new EmpOperation

    empObj.runEmpOperation(spark, "String", fileType = "csv")

    val inPutPath = args(1)
    val outPutPath = args(2)    
  }
}


getting error:

Exception in thread "main" com.typesafe.config.ConfigException$BadPath: path parameter: Invalid path C:\\Users\\mmishra092815\\IdeaProjects\\use_case_1\\src\\main\\Resource\\filepath.properties': Token not allowed in path expression: ':' (you can double-quote this token if you really want it here)

Loading happens in ConfigFactory.load() . If you want to load configuration from specific file, pass it like:

val props = ConfigFactory.load("C:\\Users\\mmishra092815\\IdeaProjects\\use_case_1\\src\\main\\Resource\\filepath.properties")

As described in API documentation , getConfig method does not load configuration from file - it returns a Config object for given config path (not filesystem path!)
