[kepler-dev] Passing arguments to Kepler

[Jianwu Wang]

Hi Michal,

    For Kepler.sh, you should be able to do like this: kepler.sh -runwf 
-nogui -nocache -property1 value1  -property2 value2 -property3 value3 
workflow.xml. For gui and cache choices:

-gui run with GUI support (default).
-nogui run without GUI support.
-cache run with kepler cache (default).
-nocache run without kepler cache.


   

Best wishes

Sincerely yours
