Pydra: Dataflow Engine

A simple dataflow engine with scalable semantics.

Pydra is a rewrite of the Nipype engine with mapping and joining as first-class operations. It forms the core of the Nipype 2.0 ecosystem.

The goal of pydra is to provide a lightweight Python dataflow engine for DAG construction, manipulation, and distributed execution.

Feature list:

  1. Python 3.7+ using type annotation and attrs
  2. Composable dataflows with simple node semantics. A dataflow can be a node of another dataflow.
  3. splitter and combiner provides many ways of compressing complex loop semantics
  4. Cached execution with support for a global cache across dataflows and users
  5. Distributed execution, presently via ConcurrentFutures, SLURM, and Dask (this is an experimental implementation with limited testing)
