Running workflows on the command line

Please note that this is an upcoming feature of Reflex version 1.1.

1. Instead of running workflows using the GUI they can be executed on the command line
2. To execute a workflow, type reflex workflowname -inputdoc inputfilename on the command line, where workflowname contains the absolute path to a workflow, and inputfilename contains the absolute path to a compatible input file, which can be either an xml-file created in Reflex, or an sof-file.
3. The workflow will then execute and the output will be displayed on the console

Troubleshooting

• If the workflow seems not to execute, check that your input document contains all the needed inputs for the workflow. The safest way is to create the input document (either xml or sof) using the Reflex GUI (please see here for instructions).
