There's lots of tools for pipelines in Python. They are sophisticated that helps you decompose an analysis into parts and runs it robustly.

  • Snakemake is my favourite. It's (nearly) pure Python and can generate reports.
  • Nextflow is growing in popularity and is pretty straightforward
  • Ruffus used to be reasonably popular, seemed fine when I used it
  • Bpipe is for bioinformatics
  • Airflow is a more industrial "big" solution but in wide use
