CWLtool

Description

cwltool website

This is the reference implementation of the Common Workflow Language. It is intended to be feature complete and provide comprehensive validation of CWL files as well as provide other tools related to working with CWL. The reference implementation consists of two packages. The cwltool package is the primary Python module containing the reference implementation in the cwltool module and console executable by the same name. The cwlref-runner package provides an additional entry point under the alias cwl-runner, which is the implementation-agnostic name for the default CWL interpreter installed on a host. The reference runner only support local execution. Use a more featureful workflow management system for SLURM and software dependency support. See https://www.commonwl.org/ for reference.
