Allow "keep:" references on command line.

Description
arvados-cwl-runner lets you provide input parameter values on the command line. However, currently it assumes they are relative paths local files and doesn't allow you to use references to keep. This should be fixed to permit references to keep.
As a secondary problem, "file not found" when checking command line parameters results in a backtrace, rather being caught and printing a friendlier error message.

I think I've tracked down the issue.
cwltool's main.py file does some argument parsing in init_job_order() and translates for example:
['--script', 'keep:zztop-4zz18-x9a7cx3mw6a2czo/OSC_Preprocessing.ssf', '--sessions', 'keep:3c2af8506ae4d7844701000867858f67+8593/20220113']
to
{'job_order': None, 'script': {'class': 'File', 'location': 'file:///Users/lucas/Devel/git/arvados/sdk/cwl/keep%3Azztop-4zz18-x9a7cx3mw6a2czo/OSC_Preprocessing.ssf'}, 'sessions': [{'class': 'Directory', 'location': 'file:///Users/lucas/Devel/git/arvados/sdk/cwl/keep%3A3c2af8506ae4d7844701000867858f67%2B8593/20220113'}]}
At a-c-r's side, there're some checks for inputs starting with "keep:" that don't get executed because of this translation.
What's not clear to me is if a-c-r should decode the file:///full-path/keep%3Asome-uuid/some-file URI to something understandable like keep:some-uuid/some-file, or if it's a cwltool bug (or feature that can be disabled)

I think the problem might be here:
The location of File and Directory inputs get translated to an os.path.abspath() without even checking that what we have is a valid (and existing) relative path.

Good catch! Probably not that hard to fix either, it just needs to expand those file/URI references differently.

My thought process is that as cwltool doesn't know the keep:xxx URIs, and it's not an existing relative path, it shouldn't translate it at all. I guess cwltool users will get an "file not found" error somewhere downstream anyways.
I've ran the tests and 5 fail, although the same number of tests fail on main, so I'm not sure if this change broke something.
What would be the correct procedure to submit these changes to the project? (provided that they make sense)

There's a better way to do this, there is a urljoin method that cwltool uses, which arvados-cwl-runner hooks into to make it aware of "keep:" URIs. It should "urljoin" on the file URI of the current directory and the string from the command line, and that has the correct logic to recognize when something is a URI and when it is a relative file reference (that's how this works for all the file loading, it should have been used here and was just overlooked).

Fix PR at: https://github.com/common-workflow-language/cwltool/pull/1613 -- we'll have to update arvados-cwl-runner's pin on cwltool when this gets merged & released.
Updated by Peter Amstutz about 3 years ago
Ticket #18723 is merged which includes the cwltool update with the bug fix, could you confirm this bug is fixed in arvados-cwl-runner?
Updated by Lucas Di Pentima about 3 years ago
Yes, it seems to be working now. Thanks!
