Way to specify step dependencies but not include them in the input object #41

Description

@tetron

To help with reshaping inputs, it would be helpful to be able to specify input sources explicitly not propagated to the actual input or output object. This gives the user a way to inform the workflow checker that the input parameter isn't expected to match the signature of the underlying 'run', and doesn't pass through parameters to the underlying 'run' which may be problematic.

I believe it is the case that cwltool already does not pass through input object elements that do not match the signature, but this would make it formally specified.

  • need to decide on the name

Example:

  in:
      render: { source: render, propagate: false }
      source: {valueFrom: $(inputs.render.source)}
      target: {valueFrom: $(inputs.render.target)}
      renderlist: {valueFrom: $(inputs.render.renderlist)}
