Writing the blueprint code

Each blueprint project that you create must contain at a minimum the following files:

• A Python layout script that defines the workflow. The script contains a function that defines the entities (jobs and crawlers) in a workflow, and the dependencies between them.

• A configuration file, blueprint.cfg, which defines:

  • The full path of the workflow layout definition function.

  • The parameters that the blueprint accepts.
