Hi,
To get the execution context in custom reader,You need to implement beforeStep() or afterStep() method.
In that you have to put some value in execution context and you can access that value in next step wherever required,
Like

@BeforeStep
public void beforeStep(StepExecution stepExecution) throws Exception {
ExitStatus exitStatus = stepExecution.getExitStatus();
stepExecution.getJobExecution().getExecutionContex t().put("Name","testUser");

return exitStatus;
}

To access the value from execution context this way,
String str = (String) stepExecution.getJobExecution().getExecutionContex t().get("Name");
