Details#

version: 0.0.0 This module is automatically added to the beginning of every pipeline. This module ensures that every pipeline has a metadata file, which is requried for modules that add columns to the metadata. If the configuration file does not specify a metadata file, this module will create an empty table with a row for each file in the input directory. This also ensures that any pre-existing metadata file has a suitable format.
