This Commented CUE demonstrates how to use dependencies to influence the order of execution of tasks in a workflow command.
package example
import (
	"strings"
	"tool/cli"
	"tool/file"
)
command: doStuff: {
	// The readFile task reads a greeting from a file.
	readFile: file.Read & {
		filename: "input.txt"
		contents: string
	}
	// The echoGreeting task prints the greeting read by readFile.
	echoGreeting: cli.Print & {
		text: "We read: \(strings.TrimSpace(readFile.contents))"
	}
	// The thankUser task prints a message after both readFile and echoGreeting are finished.
	thankUser: cli.Print & {
		$after: [readFile, echoGreeting]
		text: "Thank you"
	}
}Hello, world!TERMINAL
$ cue cmd doStuff
We read: Hello, world!
