How to specify relative search path when invoking liquibase from java

As mentioned here I am trying to invoke liquibase from Java.

val rootProjectDir = "/Users/debrajmanna/code/java/github/sp/src/java/";
//System.setProperty("LIQUIBASE_SEARCH_PATH", rootProjectDir);
System.setProperty("liquibase.searchPath", rootProjectDir);
val database =
        DatabaseFactory.getInstance()
            .findCorrectDatabaseImplementation(
                new JdbcConnection(
                    DriverManager.getConnection(
                        url,
                        getPostgresContainerConfig().username(),
                        getPostgresContainerConfig().password())));
   val relativePath = "analytics/target/classes/create_db.sql";
    val liquibase =
        new liquibase.Liquibase(
            relativePath, new ClassLoaderResourceAccessor(), database);
    liquibase.update(new Contexts(), new LabelExpression());

I am getting the below error

  • liquibase-core Version - 4.5.0

Can someone let me know what is going wrong here?

I had to do

new liquibase.Liquibase(
            // new DatabaseChangeLog(sqlChangelog.getFile().getAbsolutePath()),
            relativePath,
            new FileSystemResourceAccessor(
                new File("/Users/debrajmanna/code/java/github/sp/src/java/")),
            database);

There is no need to set any system property

you can look at my example GitHub - mhockett/liquibase_java_example: Demo using liquibase in java program.
i wrote quick / dirty script to show how I made it work.
