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.
