json2aRgs

Parse Parameters Inside a Docker Container (tool)

The function get_parameters() is intended to be used within a docker container with a certain file structure to read keyword arguments from the file /in/parameters.json automagically. The file /src/tool.yaml contains specifications on these keyword arguments, which are then passed as input to containerized R tools in the tool-runner framework.

A template for a containerized R tool, which can be used as a basis for developing new tools, is available at the following URL: https://github.com/VForWaTer/tool_template_r.
