MXP — Modular eXpandable framework for building Pipelines

MXP is a tool that allows one to build pipelines easily.

MXP core (called “MXP base” below) is set of Bash scripts that arrange execution of other scripts, called “methods”. This arranged execution is a pipeline. Drawing the analogy between MXP and languages like Python or R, MXP base corresponds to language interpreter, groups of methods correspond to packages, and pipelines correspond to end-user applications.

Pipelines may be very general or very specific, as any program can be. MXP allows you to easily modify or extend existing pipelines without changing original pipeline code.
