Setting a resource for Spring Batch reader from file system

I'd like to adjust my code to make the Spring Batch reader to read the resource file not from class path, but from the file system (like C:\inputData.xml). Is there any way, how to make it? My current code looks like this and reads given xml file from resources folder just fine:

@Bean
ItemReader<FamilyBatchEntity> xmlFamilyFileItemReader() {
    StaxEventItemReader<FamilyBatchEntity> xmlFileReader = new StaxEventItemReader<>();
    xmlFileReader.setResource(new ClassPathResource("inputData.xml"));
    xmlFileReader.setFragmentRootElementName("Familiendetails");

    Jaxb2Marshaller insurantMarshaller = new Jaxb2Marshaller();
    insurantMarshaller.setClassesToBeBound(FamilyBatchEntity.class);
    xmlFileReader.setUnmarshaller(insurantMarshaller);

    return xmlFileReader;
}

Change your ClassPathResource to a FileSystemResource and pass in the path. You can read more about the FileSystemResource in the documentation here: http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/javadoc-api/org/springframework/core/io/FileSystemResource.html
