ewoks: main python API and CLI for workflow execution.ewokscore: runtime graph and task utilities used by Ewoks Engines and Ewoks Apps.
ewokscore: basic engine for sequential execution.ewoksdask: engine for distributed execution.ewoksppf: engine that supports loops and conditional links.ewoksorange: engine with a desktop graphical user interface.
Engines can be created by anyone.
The ewoks package can discover all engines installed in the same python environment.
ewoksjob: Job scheduling system- client: submit workflows (no
ewoksinstallation required) - worker: execute workflows (
