using nginx instead of paste as Galaxy web server
by Dean Snyder 02 Nov '11

02 Nov '11

I switched from using the default Python Paste web server for my local Galaxy installation to nginx. I have verified that it works fine so far, but shouldn't the following option in the universe_wsgi.ini file be changed? (I don't see anything in the documentation about this.) # The internal HTTP server to use. Currently only Paste is provided. This # option is required. use = egg:Paste#http Dean A.

Re: [galaxy-dev] [galaxy-user] Cannot get rid of custom build error
by Jeremy Goecks 02 Nov '11

02 Nov '11

Hi Jim, You'll need to update your datatypes_conf.xml file to get custom builds + converters to work. This file is located in the root of your galaxy directory. If you haven't modified your datatypes_conf.xml file previously, you can just copy datatypes_conf.xml.sample to datatypes_conf.xml If you have modifed this file, please add the following lines to your datatypes_conf.xml: (a) <converter file="fasta_to_2bit.xml" target_datatype="twobit"/> <converter file="fasta_to_len.xml" target_datatype="len"/> to the fasta definition and (b) <converter file="len_to_linecount.xml" target_datatype="linecount"/> to the len definition See datatypes_conf.xml.sample for examples. Also, you'll need to download and add the UCSC program fastaToTwoBit to your path as well. You can find UCSC executables here: hgwdev.cse.ucsc.edu/~kent/exe/ Good luck, J. > Hello, > > I've tried to create a custom build (starting from the trackster page) > and clearly made some mistake.

Providing Data to Galaxy Users
by Ostell, Jim (NIH/NLM/NCBI) [E] 02 Nov '11

02 Nov '11

Hello Galaxy Folks, NCBI has received a few requests to provide a mechanism for people browsing the NCBI databases to download the data they have selected into Galaxy, so we are looking into it. I know some other sites have done this, it looks like through a URL based callback mechanism. However, I know things can change over time, and I'd like to be sure that we are assessing an approach that reflects your current best thinking, whether it turns out to be something well established you are happy with, or if you might be considering moving toward something new, we'd like you to tell us what you think would work best for your users in your environment. If you can just point me at a URL with the appropriate documentation, that's great. If you'd prefer to dialog a little, we're happy to talk. If there is a particular person we should be talking to, let me know. Thanks for your help. Regards, Jim Ostell James M. Ostell, Ph.D. Chief, Information Engineering Branch National Center for Biotechnology Information, NLM, NIH Bldg 45, Rm 5AN.44A 45 Center Drive Bethesda, MD 20892-6510

Dear All, Is there an API call for importing data sets into the current history (or a new history)? This feature exists in the web UI. Thanks so much, Oren

Appropriate method of coalescing tool output (not workflow)
by Jesse Erdmann 01 Nov '11

01 Nov '11

I have an in-house Perl tool that generates a double digit number of outputs that we'd like the user to have access to, but don't necessarily need to be in the history. A complicating factor is that the exact number is determined at run time as user input can add any number of outputs that can't be determined in the scope of the tools' XML processing. Ideally, the end result would be that executing the tool would produce a single output in the history with the other files either being hidden or in the extra_files path. The visible file should be an HTML file that can be used to describe and link to the other outputs as well as providing the option to either unhide or add the hidden outputs to the history for use in subsequent analysis. I've looked at composite datatypes, but as far as I can tell the documentation and examples don't cover how to produce a composite datatype with a variable number of outputs. I briefly tried to use the deprecated <code> tag to iterate over the results with the other outputs added as hidden extra files to the index after execution, but wasn't really excited about using a deprecated feature and couldn't get it working quickly, regardless. Any other suggestions? -- Jesse Erdmann Bioinformatics Analyst Masonic Cancer Center University of Minnesota jerdmann(a)umn.edu 612-626-3123

Running galaxy on external hard drive
by Alessia D 01 Nov '11

01 Nov '11

Hi, I am very new to Galaxy and so far have only used the online interface. However, I have an old Unix-running computer and I was hoping to run Galaxy as a local instance. However, the computer has a very small hard drive, that is already half full, so I was wondering if there is any way I can run Galaxy by installing it on an external hard drive. I tried already, and was able to install it properly and connect, but I get errors when I try to upload data. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don't have a lot of experience with Unix systems, so it might be something easy to solve or impossible to do, I have no idea. Thanks! Alessia

Can I contribute my Chinese locale files to the galaxy?
by Hanfei Sun 01 Nov '11

01 Nov '11

Hi, all I'm from China and was interested in the i18n of galaxy. I wrote 4 locale files such as ginga.po/mo and tools.po/mo ,tried them on my server and it worked well. I want to contribute it to the galaxy repository but don't know how to do that because I don't have the permission to push it to bitbucket. Could anyone tell me how to contribute them ? Thanks~ Best wishes, Hanfei Sun
