Description

WDL Input Overview

This workflow splits a multi-sample VCF file into individual single-sample VCF files. This is achieved by first extracting all the samples from the provided multi-sample VCF file. The extracted samples are then broken up into "chunks" based on the specified chunk size. A new sample list is generated per chunk. Finally, this new "chunked" sample list is used to extract the corresponding samples from the original multi-sample VCF file, creating new single-sample VCF files. These files (and corresponding index files, if requested) are then copied to the specified output location.

Inputs:
