This package defines a high-level Galaxy workflow description termed "Format 2". The current schema version is v19_09 and the schema can be found here. This version of workflow format can be consumed by Galaxy since version 19.09.
The Format 2 workflow description is still somewhat experimental and may yet change in small potentially backward incompatible ways until the format is exported by Galaxy by default.
The traditional Galaxy workflow description (files ending in .ga extension,
sometimes called native workflows in this project) was not designed to be
concise and is neither readily human readable or human writable. Galaxy
workflow Format 2 is being designed to address these limitations,
while also moving Galaxy's workflow description language toward standards such
as the Common Workflow Language.
This Python project can be installed from PyPI using pip.
