sprocket inputs

The inputs subcommand generates a template input JSON file for a given task or workflow. Required inputs appear with a <REQUIRED> placeholder and their type, inputs with defaults show their default values directly, and optional inputs without defaults appear as null.

sprocket inputs example.wdl --target main

{
  "main.name": "String <REQUIRED>",
  "main.greeting": "hello"
}

Options

• --target (-t) — selects which task or workflow to generate inputs for, consistent with the run and validate subcommands.
• --hide-defaults — hides any inputs with default values, allowing you to focus only on the required inputs.
• --show-non-literals — includes inputs whose default values are non-literal expressions in the template. These appear as <NON-LITERAL: expression>.
• --nested-inputs — includes overrideable inputs for each task called in the workflow, not just the top-level workflow inputs.
• --yaml — outputs the template as YAML instead of JSON.
