Description
Bug report
Expected behavior and actual behavior
I am running nextflow lint -format . to check and pretty-print my nextflow files. My main.nf file includes a map assignment of the form: map_map = [(params.abc): params.defg] Note that the parens around (params.abc) are required. After running nextflow lint -format, the parens are removed, which leads to a parse error like this:
Error nextflow_tutorial/hello_world.nf:49:26: Unexpected input: ':'
│ 49 | map_map = [params.abc: params.defg]
Steps to reproduce the problem
Include this assignment map_map = [(params.abc): params.defg], where params.abc and params.defg are arbitrary strings assigned in nextlfow.config. Run nextflow lint -format
Program output
(Copy and paste the output produced by the failing execution. Please highlight it as a code block. Whenever possible upload the .nextflow.log file.)
Environment
- Nextflow version: 25.10.4
- Java version: openjdk version "17.0.10" 2024-01-16
- Operating system: macOS
- Bash version: zsh 5.9
Additional context
My overall goal is trying avoid using "magic strings". For maintainability reasons, I want to avoid including the same hard-coded string in several places across several files. In an effort to do that, I defined some strings in params. That's what's driving the use of params values as keys in a map.
