FAQPage Schema
How do I configure Docker requirements in a Common Workflow Language package?▼

To configure Docker requirements in a CWL package, you use the DockerRequirement field. This Skill provides deep insights into configuring containerized processing efficiently within Weaver.

What is the best way to select Docker images for scientific and geospatial CWL workflows?▼

Selecting Docker images for CWL workflows involves evaluating official, scientific, and geospatial base images. This Skill assists in choosing the right Docker images by providing best practices tailored for containerized scientific processing.

Why does my Docker image pull fail when running a CWL workflow in Weaver?▼

Docker image pull failures in CWL workflows often stem from registry authentication or network issues. This Skill provides troubleshooting steps to resolve common Docker issues like image pull failures and permission problems during containerized execution.

Do I need prior Docker experience to use containerization in CWL packages?▼

Yes, you need a basic understanding of Docker and CWL v1.0 or higher. This Skill is designed for developers who already have foundational knowledge of containerization and are looking to master Docker configuration within CWL packages.

How does DockerRequirement work within Common Workflow Language?▼

DockerRequirement in Common Workflow Language forces a command line tool to run inside a specified Docker container. This Skill explains how this mechanism works to ensure consistent execution environments across different platforms in Weaver.
