first draft of workflow format #171

Closed kba closed 2 years ago

kba commented 4 years ago

Spec defines a format for describing OCR-D workflows, independent of the workflow engine to run the workflow.

See https://github.com/kba/ocrd-workflows for examples of workflows defined in this format

One feature that might be worth considering for this format as well is (automatically) versioning workflows, as explained here.

Also: inclusion of other files!

Definitely. The idea behind adding variables - even if unsure about the semantics yet - was to support some form of inheritance.

Thanks everybody for the effort in reviewing this but we have since decided to go down the Nextflow route, so this PR has become obsolete.
