I am experimenting with CWL and cwltool. I have successfully written a workflow that can scatter jobs. However, cwltool runs them sequencially, whereas I would like to to use the Sun Grid Engine (SGE) to run jobs in parallel. I looked into Toil to run it but I have found it not capable of running the workflow so far. Here my questions:
- Does cwltool support integration with SGE?
- If not, is it planned, and if not, why? Would patches be accepted?
- Beside Toil, are there working implementation that do interact with SGE?
- What tools do you use to run cwl workflows with parrallel tasks?
Any other suggestion is welcome.
Thank you
I am getting this message: "CWL Directory inputs not yet supported in Toil"
That is correct, Toil's CWL support for
v1.0
is ongoing: https://toil.readthedocs.io/en/releases-3.6.x/running/running.html#running-cwl-workflows
