The data-driven workflow dumps generated by the DPL (O2 Data Processing Layer) cannot be directly imported into AliECS. These workflow templates are JSON files describing a set of processes to run and how they communicate and are thus, essential. The same input workflow template does not follow a formal schema.

This project aims to develop an importer that converts a DPL workflow dump and convert it into a format that AliECS can work with. The importer would further benefit from a formally defined schema as well as building a package for validation of files against said schema.
