IWC - Intergalactic Workflow Commission

The IWC maintains high-quality Galaxy Workflows

Workflows are categorized in the workflows directory, and listed in Dockstore and WorkflowHub.

All workflows are reviewed and tested before publication and with every new Galaxy release. Deposited workflows follow best practices and are versioned using github releases. Workflows also contain important metadata, such as:

• License
• Author
• Institutes

Additionally the IWC will collect further best practices, tips and tricks, FAQs and assist the community in designing high-quality Galaxy workflows.

Importing Workflows into Galaxy

To import IWC workflows into your Galaxy instance use the TRS workflow search in the Galaxy interface. Click on "Workflows", "Import" and click on the "search form" link.

When importing a workflow form workflowhub.eu you currently need to search for organization:"IWC Workflows".

Contributing a Workflow

• uploaded to a separate repository in https://github.com/iwc-workflows for versioning purposes
