Arguments

moduleInput	moduleInput object
inputList	list of input objects provided to module
outputDirectory	working directory for module execution

Details

For any moduleInput wrapping a internalVessel or fileVessel with a relative ref, the relevant input object is copied into the module outputDirectory.

For any moduleInput that is not found in inputList (e.g., when the module is being run directly), the moduleInput itself is tried (e.g., a URL vessel should work).
