| +### Content overview | ||
| + | ||
| This directory contains WDL scripts developed at the Broad Institute and supported by the DSDE group (which develops GATK, Picard and Cromwell/WDL among other things). These scripts are NOT run in production at Broad; for production pipeline scripts, see the `broad_pipelines` directory. | ||
| When these scripts get updated, old versions are stored in the `archive` directory. Versions are distinguished with a datestamp (format: YYMMDD). Each WDL script is accompanied by a JSON file of example inputs bearing the same name, with the `.inputs.json` extension instead of `.wdl`. Unless otherwise specified, all WDL scripts can be run with the generic options file `generic.options.json`. | ||
| +### Important limitations | ||
| + | ||
| +These scripts are provided "as-is", without any guarantees as to performance | ||
| +or results. It is the responsibility of the user to test these scripts | ||
| +fully before running them in production. | ||
| + | ||
| +Many parameters and implementation decisions are optimized for our use of | ||
| +the Google Cloud Platform. In some cases (such as dynamic filename modifications and extension swapping using the sub() function) the scripts may need to be | ||
| +modified in order to be run successfully on a different platform. | ||
