os: windows 7-64bit / splunk 6.2.0 / universal forwarder 6.2.0
current my python inputs.conf
[script://.\bin\test\test.py]
i know that universal forwarder doesn't include python bundle, but i want python script on the universal forwarder.
i tried python install and set [script://python_path\python .\bin\test\test.py], but it failed.
Is there any way?

Yes! You can run Python scripts on the UF. But, you need to launch your script from within a shell script (or BAT script on Windows).
So your inputs.conf would be
[script://.\bin\test\launchtest.sh]
And launchtest.sh would contain something like this
#!/bin/sh
# launch the python script
# you could include environment variables, more specific path names, etc as needed
./test.py
Make sure that launchtest.sh is executable. Thats's all you need!

Do we need to install Python to run the script? Or UF comes with Python interpreter?
