This package provides a stable interface for interactions between Snakemake and its storage plugins.

snakemake-interface-storage-plugins

This package provides a stable interface for interactions between Snakemake and its storage plugins.

Plugins should implement the following skeleton to comply with this interface. It is recommended to use Snakemake's poetry plugin to set up this skeleton (and automated testing) within a python package, see https://github.com/snakemake/poetry-snakemake-plugin.

# Optional:
# Define settings for your storage plugin (e.g. host url, credentials).
# They will occur in the Snakemake CLI as --storage-<storage-plugin-name>-<param-name>
# Make sure that all defined fields are 'Optional' and specify a default value
# of None or anything else that makes sense in your case.
# Note that we allow storage plugin settings to be tagged by the user. That means,
# that each of them can be specified multiple times (an implicit nargs=+), and
# the user can add a tag in front of each value (e.g. tagname1:value1 tagname2:value2).
# This way, a storage plugin can be used multiple times within a workflow with different
# settings.
