FW: how do I pass the URL of the input and output files to my tool wrapper?
by Chorny, Ilya
I thought I would add this to the list in case anyone in the galaxy :) knew the answer. I get a mapping error every time I invoke url_for. What variable stores the base url for the galaxy instance?
Thanks,
Ilya

Hi James,
I got the code working but I can't figure out how to set the URL. I have a hack right now (i.e. url = 'http://' + socket.getfqdn() + config_info.cookie_path + '/datasets/' + sec.encode_id(dataset.id) + '/display/?preview=True' ). I tried using url_for() but was unable to get that to work. Attached are the diff's for the files I made changes to.
If you have any suggestions on how to properly set the url please let me know.
Thanks,
Ilya

Hi Ilya, I think any case where $__app__ is used should raise red flags, it is definitely breaking abstraction. In this case, you're passing a very specific implementation detail of the web layer all the way down to your tool.
I think the right way to do what you want is to add a 'web_display_url'
attribute to the class DatasetFilenameWrapper in tools/__init__.py.
Every dataset gets wrapped by this when put into the namespace for building command lines. If you added an attribute it would them be available as ${input.web_display_url} in the command line template.
Historically tool wrappers were designed so that they have no knowledge of the UI, allowing non-web UIs to be added on top. At this point it seems unlikely that this will ever happen, but it is still a good idea to avoid this kind of coupling. Otherwise we can't change how the web interface does security without changing individual tools.
Excerpts from Chorny, Ilya's message of 2011-10-17 22:56:40 +0000:
> So we came up with a work around and I wouldn't mind getting your opinion on it. Specifically with respect to passing cookie_path. I could not figure out how to get the proxy prefix from the universe_wsgi.ini file via the $__app__ call. Also you mention in the wiki the the $__app__ may get deprecated.

Data Retention Policies
by John Chilton
Hello All,
This is more of a general policy question. The head of our Research
Informatics Support Systems group here at the University of Minnesota
wants to know how other institutions are handling the large amount of
data generated by next generation sequencing facilities and processed by
local Galaxy instances. Specifically, I think she is interested in what
sort of data retention policies institutions have in place - for
instance how long do you store data, what sort of quotas do you put in
place, what sort of backups do you have in place, etc....
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks for your time,
-John

You didn't try the precise combination I meant,
<command>$hisapWrapperScript &> $logFile</command>
where $hisapWrapperScript is marked as executable and has a Unix
hashbang line saying which shell to use, e.g. #!/usr/bin/bash
Apologies if I was too vague.

To be expected, Galaxy captures any stdout (assuming nothing else captured
it first) and puts it in the info field.

Yes, it is a long standing Galaxy bug that any stderr out is treated as an
error condition, rather than looking at the return code:

Glad you got there in the end :)

By the way - this whole discussion would have been better suited to the
galaxy-dev list (CC'd) since it is about developing tools for Galaxy rather
than Galaxy end users.

Fill field with user email, if logged in
by Steven Platt
Hi,
I a similar vein to
http://gmod.827538.n3.nabble.com/Dynamic-default-values-tt3010740.html I
am trying to populate a default value based on settings elsewhere, in
this case the user email if they are logged in.
So far I have:
<conditional name="email_on_completion">
<param name="send_email" type="select" label="Send email when job
is complete?">
<option value="yes">Yes</option>
<option value="no">No</option>
</param>
<when value="no"/>
<when value="yes">
<param name="address" type="text" value="$userEmail"
label="Email address"/>
</when>
</conditional>
Which views OK, except that the field contains $userEmail instead of
e.g. bob(a)gmail.com
Can anyone tell me how to dynamically populate a field with a users
email address?
(I'd like to allow non-registered users to manually enter their address
if necessary, hence the text field rather than capturing the email
address directly in the command string.)
Thanks
Steve

update of cufflinks and tophat to use dbkey attribute of input files
by Chorny, Ilya
Hi Jeremy,
I made some more modifications to the wrappers to allow for the tools to pull the genome information from the input files. The only drawback is that there is no way to validate whether the input has the dbkey attribute as a parameter (can you suggest a way to validate?). Attached are the diff's to the current version in galaxy-central.
Best,
Ilya

OK, I found a better way by
(a) go to the admin panel, push the 'add a new dataset in the library'
button and selecting the one needed from the current history
(b) move the selected dataset from the library to a location mounted to
galaxy.
that is ok for me.
However, if someone has a better solution, any advices are fine for me

Multiple formats for tool options
by Alex R Bigelow
Hi,
I've been tweaking the GATK wrappers to try to get my pipeline working in Galaxy; for drop-down menus, I've been able to add additional eligible formats to some parameters:
<param name="input_rod" type="data" format="vcf,gatk_dbsnp,bed" label="ROD file" />
This works just fine, but it doesn't work for others:
<param name="input_intervals" type="data" format="bed,gatk_interval,picard_interval_list" optional="True" label="A list of genomic intervals over which to operate" />
When I make the change, and reload the configuration (or even restart Galaxy), the menu still doesn't show any options, even though I have a bed file loaded in my history (the same bed file WILL show up in the first menu). Does anyone have an idea what might be wrong?
Thanks,
Alex Bigelow

Upload File Button
by Chorny, Ilya
I create an upload file button using upload.xml in one of my xml scripts.
<param name="file_data" type="file" size="30" label="File" ajax-upload="true" help="TIP: Due to browser limitations, uploading files larger than 2GB is guaranteed to fail. To upload large files, use the URL method (below) or FTP (if enabled by the site administrator).">
</param>
But when I add it to a work flow and try to have it set the parameters at runtime, the set at runtime options fails. Any ideas why?
Thanks,
Ilya

Questions about reusing workflows
by Lukasse, Pieter
Hi,
I have some questions about adding new custom tools to my Galaxy instance:
1- How can I reuse workflows?
a. Should I wrap a workflow as a tool?
b. Or can I just add a custom workflow as a workflow step in another workflow?
2- I noticed that option 1.b above seems to copy the complete workflow into my new workflow, so if I have an existing workflow A with N steps and want to use this in workflow B which already has M steps, I end up with a workflow that has M+N steps while I would expect M+1 steps... This behaviour gives me the impression that if I change workflow A, this will not automatically imply a change in workflow B. Is my interpretation correct?
3- If option 1.a above is the way to go for now, what are the steps to do this? E.g. what is the command to run a workflow from the command line?
Thanks and regards,
Pieter Lukasse.
