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.

This is written and tested for 

Python
_ 
3.x {x = 6, 7, 8, 9}

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 is optional and 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. 

cwltool
is provided by the CWL project, 
a member project of Software Freedom Conservancy
_ and our 
many contributors
_.

Install

cwltool
packages ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Your operating system may offer cwltool directly. For 

Debian
, 
Ubuntu
, and similar Linux distribution try

.. code:: bash

sudo apt-get install cwltool

If you are running MacOS X or other UNIXes and you want to use packages prepared by the conda-forge project, then please follow the install instructions for 

conda-forge
_ (if you haven't already) and then

.. code:: bash

conda install -c conda-forge cwltool

All of the above methods of installing 

cwltool
use packages which might contain bugs already fixed in newer versions, or be missing features that you desire. If the packaged version of 
cwltool
available to you is too old, then we recommend installing using 
pip
and `
venv
::

.. code:: bash

python3 -m venv env # Create a virtual environment named 'env' in the current directory source env/bin/activate # Activate environment before installing 

cwltool

Then install the latest 

cwlref-runner
package from PyPi (which will install the latest 
cwltool
package as well)

.. code:: bash

pip install cwlref-runner

If installing alongside another CWL implementation (like 

toil-cwl-runner
or 
arvados-cwl-runner
) then instead run

.. code:: bash

pip install cwltool

MS Windows users ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

  1. Install 
    "Windows Subsystem for Linux 2" (WSL2) and Docker Desktop
    _
  2. Install 
    Debian from the Microsoft Store
    _
  3. Set Debian as your default WSL 2 distro: 
    wsl --set-default debian
  4. Reboot if you have not yet already.
  5. Launch Debian and follow the Linux instructions above (
    apt-get install cwltool
    or use the 
    venv
    method)

cwltool
development version ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Or you can skip the direct 

pip
commands above and install the latest development version of 
cwltool
:

.. code:: bash

git clone https://github.com/common-workflow-language/cwltool.git # clone (copy) the cwltool git repository cd cwltool # Change to source directory that git clone just downloaded pip install . # Installs 

cwltool
from source cwltool --version # Check if the installation works correctly

Remember, if co-installing multiple CWL implementations then you need to maintain which implementation 

cwl-runner
points to via a symbolic file system link or 
another facility
_.

Recommended Software ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You may also want to have the following installed: - 

node.js
_ - Docker, udocker, or Singularity (optional)

Without these, some examples in the CWL tutorials at http://www.commonwl.org/user_guide/ may not work.

Run on the command line

Simple command::

cwl-runner [tool-or-workflow-description] [input-job-settings]

Or if you have multiple CWL implementations installed and you want to override the default cwl-runner then use::

cwltool [tool-or-workflow-description] [input-job-settings]

You can set cwltool options in the environment with CWLTOOL_OPTIONS, these will be inserted at the beginning of the command line::

export CWLTOOL_OPTIONS="--debug"

Use with boot2docker on macOS

boot2docker runs Docker inside a virtual machine and it only mounts 

Users
on it. The default behavior of CWL is to create temporary directories under e.g. 
/Var
which is not accessible to Docker containers.

To run CWL successfully with boot2docker you need to set the 

--tmpdir-prefix
and 
--tmp-outdir-prefix
to somewhere under 
/Users
:: 
$ cwl-runner --tmp-outdir-prefix=/Users/username/project --tmpdir-prefix=/Users/username/project wc-tool.cwl wc-job.json

Using uDocker

Some shared computing environments don't support Docker software containers for technical or policy reasons. As a work around, the CWL reference runner supports using alternative 

docker
implementations on Linux with the 
--user-space-docker-cmd
option.

One such "user space" friendly docker replacement is 

udocker
https://github.com/indigo-dc/udocker

udocker installation: https://github.com/indigo-dc/udocker/blob/master/doc/installation_manual.md#22-install-from-udockertools-tarball

Run 

cwltool
just as you normally would, but with the new option, e.g. from the conformance tests:

.. code:: bash

cwltool --user-space-docker-cmd=udocker https://raw.githubusercontent.com/common-workflow-language/common-workflow-language/main/v1.0/v1.0/test-cwl-out2.cwl https://github.com/common-workflow-language/common-workflow-language/raw/main/v1.0/v1.0/empty.json

cwltool
can also use 
Singularity
_ version 2.6.1 or later as a Docker container runtime. 
cwltool
with Singularity will run software containers specified in 
DockerRequirement
and therefore works with Docker images only, native Singularity images are not supported. To use Singularity as the Docker container runtime, provide 
--singularity
command line option to 
cwltool
. With Singularity, 
cwltool
can pass all CWL v1.0 conformance tests, except those involving Docker container ENTRYPOINTs.

Example: .. code:: bash

cwltool --singularity https://raw.githubusercontent.com/common-workflow-language/common-workflow-language/main/v1.0/v1.0/v1.0/cat3-tool-mediumcut.cwl https://github.com/common-workflow-language/common-workflow-language/blob/main/v1.0/v1.0/cat-job.json

Running a tool or workflow from remote or local locations

cwltool
can run tool and workflow descriptions on both local and remote systems via its support for HTTP[S] URLs.

Input job files and Workflow steps (via the 

run
directive) can reference CWL documents using absolute or relative local filesytem paths. If a relative path is referenced and that document isn't found in the current directory then the following locations will be searched: http://www.commonwl.org/v1.0/CommandLineTool.html#DiscoveringCWLdocumentsonalocalfilesystem

You can also use 

cwldep
to manage dependencies on external tools and workflows.

Overriding workflow requirements at load time

Sometimes a workflow needs additional requirements to run in a particular environment or with a particular dataset. To avoid the need to modify the underlying workflow, cwltool supports requirement "overrides".

The format of the "overrides" object is a mapping of item identifier (workflow, workflow step, or command line tool) to the process requirements that should be applied.

.. code:: yaml

cwltool:overrides: echo.cwl: requirements: EnvVarRequirement: envDef: MESSAGE: override_value

Overrides can be specified either on the command line, or as part of the job input document. Workflow steps are identified using the name of the workflow file followed by the step name as a document fragment identifier "#id". Override identifiers are relative to the toplevel workflow document.

.. code:: bash

cwltool --overrides overrides.yml my-tool.cwl my-job.yml

.. code:: yaml

inputparameter1: value1 inputparameter2: value2 cwltool:overrides: workflow.cwl#step1: requirements: EnvVarRequirement: envDef: MESSAGE: override_value

.. code:: bash

cwltool my-tool.cwl my-job-with-overrides.yml

Combining parts of a workflow into a single document

Use 

--pack
to combine a workflow made up of multiple files into a single compound document. This operation takes all the CWL files referenced by a workflow and builds a new CWL document with all Process objects (CommandLineTool and Workflow) in a list in the 
$graph
field. Cross references (such as 
run:
and 
source:
fields) are updated to internal references within the new packed document. The top level workflow is named 
#main
.

.. code:: bash

cwltool --pack my-wf.cwl > my-packed-wf.cwl

Running only part of a workflow

You can run a partial workflow with the 

--target
(
-t
) option. This takes the name of an output parameter, workflow step, or input parameter in the top level workflow. You may provide multiple targets.

.. code:: bash

cwltool --target step3 my-wf.cwl

If a target is an output parameter, it will only run only the steps that contribute to that output. If a target is a workflow step, it will run the workflow starting from that step. If a target is an input parameter, it will only run only the steps that are connected to that input.

Use 

--print-targets
to get a listing of the targets of a workflow. To see exactly which steps will run, use 
--print-subgraph
with 
--target
to get a printout of the workflow subgraph for the selected targets.

.. code:: bash

cwltool --print-targets my-wf.cwl

cwltool --target step3 --print-subgraph my-wf.cwl > my-wf-starting-from-step3.cwl

Visualizing a CWL document

The 

--print-dot
option will print a file suitable for Graphviz 
dot
program. Here is a bash onliner to generate a Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG) file:

.. code:: bash

cwltool --print-dot my-wf.cwl | dot -Tsvg > my-wf.svg

Modeling a CWL document as RDF

CWL documents can be expressed as RDF triple graphs.

.. code:: bash

cwltool --print-rdf --rdf-serializer=turtle mywf.cwl

Leveraging SoftwareRequirements (Beta)

CWL tools may be decorated with 

SoftwareRequirement
hints that cwltool may in turn use to resolve to packages in various package managers or dependency management systems such as 
Environment Modules
__.

Utilizing 

SoftwareRequirement
hints using cwltool requires an optional dependency, for this reason be sure to use specify the 
deps
modifier when installing cwltool. For instance::

$ pip install 'cwltool[deps]'

Installing cwltool in this fashion enables several new command line options. The most general of these options is 

--beta-dependency-resolvers-configuration
. This option allows one to specify a dependency resolver's configuration file. This file may be specified as either XML or YAML and very simply describes various plugins to enable to "resolve" 
SoftwareRequirement
dependencies.

To discuss some of these plugins and how to configure them, first consider the following 

hint
definition for an example CWL tool.

.. code:: yaml

SoftwareRequirement: packages: - package: seqtk version: - r93

Now imagine deploying cwltool on a cluster with Software Modules installed and that a 

seqtk
module is available at version 
r93
. This means cluster users likely won't have the binary 
seqtk
on their 
PATH
by default, but after sourcing this module with the command 
modulecmd sh load seqtk/r93
seqtk
is available on the 
PATH
. A simple dependency resolvers configuration file, called 
dependency-resolvers-conf.yml
for instance, that would enable cwltool to source the correct module environment before executing the above tool would simply be:

.. code:: yaml

  • type: modules

The outer list indicates that one plugin is being enabled, the plugin parameters are defined as a dictionary for this one list item. There is only one required parameter for the plugin above, this is 

type
and defines the plugin type. This parameter is required for all plugins. The available plugins and the parameters available for each are documented (incompletely) 
here
__. Unfortunately, this documentation is in the context of Galaxy tool 
requirement
s instead of CWL 
SoftwareRequirement
s, but the concepts map fairly directly.

cwltool is distributed with an example of such seqtk tool and sample corresponding job. It could executed from the cwltool root using a dependency resolvers configuration file such as the above one using the command::

cwltool --beta-dependency-resolvers-configuration /path/to/dependency-resolvers-conf.yml \ tests/seqtkseq.cwl \ tests/seqtkseq_job.json

This example demonstrates both that cwltool can leverage existing software installations and also handle workflows with dependencies on different versions of the same software and libraries. However the above example does require an existing module setup so it is impossible to test this example "out of the box" with cwltool. For a more isolated test that demonstrates all the same concepts - the resolver plugin type 

galaxy_packages
can be used.

"Galaxy packages" are a lighter weight alternative to Environment Modules that are really just defined by a way to lay out directories into packages and versions to find little scripts that are sourced to modify the environment. They have been used for years in Galaxy community to adapt Galaxy tools to cluster environments but require neither knowledge of Galaxy nor any special tools to setup. These should work just fine for CWL tools.

The cwltool source code repository's test directory is setup with a very simple directory that defines a set of "Galaxy packages" (but really just defines one package named 

random-lines
). The directory layout is simply::

tests/testdepsenv/ random-lines/ 1.0/ env.sh

If the 

galaxy_packages
plugin is enabled and pointed at the 
tests/test_deps_env
directory in cwltool's root and a 
SoftwareRequirement
such as the following is encountered.

.. code:: yaml

hints: SoftwareRequirement: packages: - package: 'random-lines' version: - '1.0'

Then cwltool will simply find that 

env.sh
file and source it before executing the corresponding tool. That 
env.sh
script is only responsible for modifying the job's 
PATH
to add the required binaries.

This is a full example that works since resolving "Galaxy packages" has no external requirements. Try it out by executing the following command from cwltool's root directory::

cwltool --beta-dependency-resolvers-configuration tests/testdepsenvresolversconf.yml \ tests/randomlines.cwl \ tests/randomlines_job.json

The resolvers configuration file in the above example was simply:

.. code:: yaml

  • type: galaxypackages basepath: ./tests/testdepsenv

It is possible that the 

SoftwareRequirement
s in a given CWL tool will not match the module names for a given cluster. Such requirements can be re-mapped to specific deployed packages and/or versions using another file specified using the resolver plugin parameter 
mapping_files
. We will demonstrate this using 
galaxy_packages
but the concepts apply equally well to Environment Modules or Conda packages (described below) for instance.

So consider the resolvers configuration file (

tests/test_deps_env_resolvers_conf_rewrite.yml
):

.. code:: yaml

  • type: galaxypackages basepath: ./tests/testdepsenv mappingfiles: ./tests/testdeps_mapping.yml

And the corresponding mapping configuraiton file (

tests/test_deps_mapping.yml
):

.. code:: yaml

  • from: name: randomLines version: 1.0.0-rc1 to: name: random-lines version: '1.0'

This is saying if cwltool encounters a requirement of 

randomLines
at version 
1.0.0-rc1
in a tool, to rewrite to our specific plugin as 
random-lines
at version 
1.0
. cwltool has such a test tool called 
random_lines_mapping.cwl
that contains such a source 
SoftwareRequirement
. To try out this example with mapping, execute the following command from the cwltool root directory::

cwltool --beta-dependency-resolvers-configuration tests/testdepsenvresolversconfrewrite.yml \ tests/randomlinesmapping.cwl \ tests/randomlines_job.json

The previous examples demonstrated leveraging existing infrastructure to provide requirements for CWL tools. If instead a real package manager is used cwltool has the opportunity to install requirements as needed. While initial support for Homebrew/Linuxbrew plugins is available, the most developed such plugin is for the 

Conda
__ package manager. Conda has the nice properties of allowing multiple versions of a package to be installed simultaneously, not requiring evaluated permissions to install Conda itself or packages using Conda, and being cross platform. For these reasons, cwltool may run as a normal user, install its own Conda environment and manage multiple versions of Conda packages on both Linux and Mac OS X.

The Conda plugin can be endlessly configured, but a sensible set of defaults that has proven a powerful stack for dependency management within the Galaxy tool development ecosystem can be enabled by simply passing cwltool the 

--beta-conda-dependencies
flag.

With this we can use the seqtk example above without Docker and without any externally managed services - cwltool should install everything it needs and create an environment for the tool. Try it out with the follwing command::

cwltool --beta-conda-dependencies tests/seqtkseq.cwl tests/seqtkseq_job.json

The CWL specification allows URIs to be attached to 

SoftwareRequirement
s that allow disambiguation of package names. If the mapping files described above allow deployers to adapt tools to their infrastructure, this mechanism allows tools to adapt their requirements to multiple package managers. To demonstrate this within the context of the seqtk, we can simply break the package name we use and then specify a specific Conda package as follows:

.. code:: yaml

hints: SoftwareRequirement: packages: - package: seqtk_seq version: - '1.2' specs: - https://anaconda.org/bioconda/seqtk - https://packages.debian.org/sid/seqtk

The example can be executed using the command::

cwltool --beta-conda-dependencies tests/seqtkseqwrongname.cwl tests/seqtkseq_job.json

The plugin framework for managing resolution of these software requirements as maintained as part of 

galaxy-tool-util
__ - a small, portable subset of the Galaxy project. More information on configuration and implementation can be found at the following links:

Use with GA4GH Tool Registry API

Cwltool can launch tools directly from 

GA4GH Tool Registry API
_ endpoints.

By default, cwltool searches https://dockstore.org/ . Use 

--add-tool-registry
to add other registries to the search path.

For example ::

cwltool quay.io/collaboratory/dockstore-tool-bamstats:develop test.json

and (defaults to latest when a version is not specified) ::

cwltool quay.io/collaboratory/dockstore-tool-bamstats test.json

For this example, grab the test.json (and input file) from https://github.com/CancerCollaboratory/dockstore-tool-bamstats ::

wget https://dockstore.org/api/api/ga4gh/v2/tools/quay.io%2Fbriandoconnor%2Fdockstore-tool-bamstats/versions/develop/PLAIN-CWL/descriptor/test.json wget https://github.com/CancerCollaboratory/dockstore-tool-bamstats/raw/develop/rna.SRR948778.bam

Running MPI-based tools that need to be launched

Cwltool supports an extension to the CWL spec 

http://commonwl.org/cwltool#MPIRequirement
. When the tool definition has this in its 
requirements
/
hints
section, and cwltool has been run with 
--enable-ext
, then the tool's command line will be extended with the commands needed to launch it with 
mpirun
or similar. You can specify the number of processes to start as either a literal integer or an expression (that will result in an integer). For example::

#!/usr/bin/env cwl-runner cwlVersion: v1.1 class: CommandLineTool $namespaces: cwltool: "http://commonwl.org/cwltool#" requirements: cwltool:MPIRequirement: processes: $(inputs.nproc) inputs: nproc: type: int

Interaction with containers: the MPIRequirement currently prepends its commands to the front of the command line that is constructed. If you wish to run a containerised application in parallel, for simple use cases this does work with Singularity, depending upon the platform setup. However this combination should be considered "alpha" -- please do report any issues you have! This does not work with Docker at the moment. (More precisely, you get 

n
copies of the same single process image run at the same time that cannot communicate with each other.)

The host-specific parameters are configured in a simple YAML file (specified with the 

--mpi-config-file
flag). The allowed keys are given in the following table; all are optional.

+----------------+------------------+----------+------------------------------+ | Key | Type | Default | Description | +================+==================+==========+==============================+ | runner | str | "mpirun" | The primary command to use. | +----------------+------------------+----------+------------------------------+ | nprocflag | str | "-n" | Flag to set number of | | | | | processes to start. | +----------------+------------------+----------+------------------------------+ | defaultnproc | int | 1 | Default number of processes. | +----------------+------------------+----------+------------------------------+ | extraflags | List[str] | [] | A list of any other flags to | | | | | be added to the runner's | | | | | command line before | | | | | the 

baseCommand
. | +----------------+------------------+----------+------------------------------+ | envpass | List[str] | [] | A list of environment | | | | | variables that should be | | | | | passed from the host | | | | | environment through to the | | | | | tool (e.g. giving the | | | | | nodelist as set by your | | | | | scheduler). | +----------------+------------------+----------+------------------------------+ | envpassregex | List[str] | [] | A list of python regular | | | | | expressions that will be | | | | | matched against the host's | | | | | environment. Those that match| | | | | will be passed through. | +----------------+------------------+----------+------------------------------+ | env_set | Mapping[str,str] | {} | A dictionary whose keys are | | | | | the environment variables set| | | | | and the values being the | | | | | values. | +----------------+------------------+----------+------------------------------+

===========

Development

Running tests locally

  • Running basic tests 
    (/tests)
    :

To run the basic tests after installing 

cwltool
execute the following:

.. code:: bash

pip install -rtest-requirements.txt py.test --ignore cwltool/schemas/ --pyarg cwltool

To run various tests in all supported Python environments we use 

tox
_. To run the test suite in all supported Python environments first downloading the complete code repository (see the 
git clone
instructions above) and then run the following in the terminal: 
pip install tox; tox

List of all environment can be seen using: 

tox --listenvs
and running a specfic test env using: 
tox -e
and additionally run a specific test using this format: 
tox -e py36-unit -- tests/test_examples.py::TestParamMatching
  • Running the entire suite of CWL conformance tests:

The GitHub repository for the CWL specifications contains a script that tests a CWL implementation against a wide array of valid CWL files using the 

cwltest
_ program

Instructions for running these tests can be found in the Common Workflow Language Specification repository at https://github.com/common-workflow-language/common-workflow-language/blob/main/CONFORMANCE_TESTS.md

Import as a module

Add

.. code:: python

import cwltool

to your script.

The easiest way to use cwltool to run a tool or workflow from Python is to use a Factory

.. code:: python

import cwltool.factory fac = cwltool.factory.Factory()

echo = fac.make("echo.cwl") result = echo(inp="foo")

# result["out"] == "foo"

CWL Tool Control Flow

Technical outline of how cwltool works internally, for maintainers.

. Use CWL 
load_tool()
to load document.

#. Fetches the document from file or URL #. Applies preprocessing (syntax/identifier expansion and normalization) #. Validates the document based on cwlVersion #. If necessary, updates the document to latest spec #. Constructs a Process object using 

make_tool()
callback.  This yields a
      CommandLineTool, Workflow, or ExpressionTool.  For workflows, this
      recursively constructs each workflow step.
   #. To construct custom types for CommandLineTool, Workflow, or
      ExpressionTool, provide a custom
make_tool()
`

. Iterate on the 
job()
method of the Process object to get back runnable jobs.

#. 

job()
is a generator method (uses the Python iterator protocol) #. Each time the 
job()
method is invoked in an iteration, it returns one of: a runnable item (an object with a 
run()
method), 
None
(indicating there is currently no work ready to run) or end of iteration (indicating the process is complete.) #. Invoke the runnable item by calling 
run()
. This runs the tool and gets output. #. Output of a process is reported by an output callback. #. 
job()
may be iterated over multiple times. It will yield all the work that is currently ready to run and then yield None.

. 
Workflow
objects create a corresponding 
WorkflowJob
and 
WorkflowJobStep
objects to hold the workflow state for the duration of the job invocation.

#. The WorkflowJob iterates over each WorkflowJobStep and determines if the inputs the step are ready. #. When a step is ready, it constructs an input object for that step and iterates on the 

job()
method of the workflow job step. #. Each runnable item is yielded back up to top level run loop #. When a step job completes and receives an output callback, the job outputs are assigned to the output of the workflow step. #. When all steps are complete, the intermediate files are moved to a final workflow output, intermediate directories are deleted, and the output callback for the workflow is called.

. 
CommandLineTool
job() objects yield a single runnable object.

#. The CommandLineTool 

job()
method calls 
make_job_runner()
to create a 
CommandLineJob
object #. The job method configures the CommandLineJob object by setting public attributes #. The job method iterates over file and directories inputs to the CommandLineTool and creates a "path map". #. Files are mapped from their "resolved" location to a "target" path where they will appear at tool invocation (for example, a location inside a Docker container.) The target paths are used on the command line. #. Files are staged to targets paths using either Docker volume binds (when using containers) or symlinks (if not). This staging step enables files to be logically rearranged or renamed independent of their source layout. #. The 
run()
method of CommandLineJob executes the command line tool or Docker container, waits for it to complete, collects output, and makes the output callback.
