sprocket validate

The validate subcommand allows you to validate that a set of inputs satisfies the requirements to run a particular task or workflow.

The arguments for validate are the same as the arguments for sprocket run. As such, you can check out the run subcommand documentation to learn more.

The subcommand will give a non-zero exit code if the inputs are not valid for the specified task or workflow. In addition to type checking, sprocket validate verifies that File and Directory inputs reference paths that exist on the filesystem, catching missing input files before a run is attempted.

This is useful for continuous integration purposes. The Sprocket GitHub action provides an easy way to do that on GitHub.
