It targets repositories that follow best-practices guidelines from the Galaxy, Nextflow, and Snakemake communities, extracting metadata from known files and repository structure to populate an RO-Crate automatically. The tool can either add metadata in-place to an existing repository or build a complete RO-Crate in a separate directory, with options to override or supplement auto-detected values.\n\nThe package depends on click for CLI handling, pyyaml for configuration, and rocrate for RO-Crate generation. It's designed for researchers and workflow developers who need to package workflows with standardized, machine-readable metadata for reproducibility and FAIR data principles. The tool assumes repositories follow established community structure conventions; custom or non-standard layouts may require manual metadata additions.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you maintain Galaxy, Nextflow, or Snakemake workflows and need to generate RO-Crate metadata following community best-practices. Install with caution if your workflows deviate significantly from standard repository layouts, as the tool relies on known file structures. The aging maintenance status (no updates since May 2023) means compatibility with recent ecosystem changes is unverified; check whether your workflow language version is still supported."},"id":"repo2rocrate","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/repo2rocrate","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/repo2rocrate.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/repo2rocrate/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2023-05-03","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"repo2rocrate","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Generate RO-Crates from workflow repositories"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":94048,"position":13346,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.2"}
