Converts a CWL document with Inline Javascript expressions to a CWL document with steps that process those JavaScript expressions. This tool can be used for to convert CWL files to other workflow description formats which don't use JavaScript and also use different scripting languages in CWL, by providing a different expression evaluation driver.
$ unjsifycwl test/test_workflow.cwl -o test_out
$ cwltool test_out/test_workflow.cwl test/test_input.yaml
The script nojscwltool
is included to test running a transpiled file against cwltool
e.g. the above is equivalent to:
$ ./nojscwltool test/test_workflow.cwl test/test_input.yaml
To run the conformance tests, run the script run_conformance_tests
. Note: not all of the confomance tests will pass, due reasons specified below.
- The runtime object is not passed into JavaScript expressions
- Cannot generate CWL for which an step has the same input or output id as an existing id in a workflow, as input and output ids need to be generated.
- The nojscwltool file doesn't fully pass the conformance tests - this is due to a mixture of bugs in cwltool and bugs and limitations of this code.
