Workflow Hub: FAIR registry of COVID-19 Workflows
Stian Soiland-Reyes
The Workflow Hub community has agreed to work on a new topic that we think is a kind of sub-topic of both Worfklows and FAIR Data topics.
I've added
https://github.com/virtual-biohackathons/covid-19-bh20/wiki/Workflow-Hub
and welcome you to participate!
Several COVID-19 Workflows have already been identified and are being worked on in this BioHackathon.
The EOSC-Life Workflow Hub is in development to become a registry of life science workflows from multiple underlying repositories for many workflow systems.
This topic proposes to set up an early pre-production instance of the Workflow Hub, covid19.workflowhub.eu,
to be a registry that gather the COVID-19 workflows and their metadata.
Part of the tasks here is also to curate the existing workflows and
help making them interoperable, reusable and reproducible.
The curated metadata will be in a FAIR format based on RO-Crate and BioSchemas annotations and maintained separate from the Workflow Hub; where possible contributed back to the workflow's origin GitHub repositories.
Skills desired (one or more):
- One or more workflow systems
- Ruby on Rails
- Python
- BioSchemas
- JSON-LD
- Documentation writing
