Snakefile Nomenclature

[s-canchi]

So the snakemake file is always labeled snakefile? What are best practices for documentation?

[s-canchi]

We can specify any file with snakemake using the -s or --snakemake flag

--snakefile, -s
The workflow definition in form of a snakefile.Usually, you should not need to specify this. By default, Snakemake will search for ‘Snakefile’, ‘snakefile’, ‘workflow/Snakefile’, ‘workflow/snakefile’ beneath the current working directory, in this order. Only if you definitely want a different layout, you need to use this parameter.
