cwltool --print-dot generate same format as cwl viewer

Question

[tony]

The graph generated by cwltool using cwltool --print-dot my-wf.cwl doesn't contain inputs and outputs for the workflow as cwlviewer does. Is there a way to generate graphs that are formatted in the same way as cwlviewer?

This is due to local workflows not yet on github/lab

Many thanks!

Hello tony, and thanks for your question.

view.commonwl.org is open source, though it is not yet configured to run on a one-off basis: https://github.com/common-workflow-language/cwlviewer

Existing related GitHub issues: https://github.com/common-workflow-language/cwltool/issues/7 https://github.com/common-workflow-language/cwlviewer/issues/203 https://github.com/common-workflow-language/cwlviewer/issues/202

This would be a good Google Summer of Code project if we can find a mentor (or two) and a willing student, perhaps through https://obf.github.io/GSoC/ideas/
