Default value for data_column not working?
by Peter Cock 14 May '14

14 May '14

Hi all, I'm trying to write a new tool working with tabular data (specifically a Reciprocal Best Hits (RBH) tool using BLAST style tabular output). I want the user to be able to choose a column number (from one of the input files), but I have a default column in mind. However, Galaxy doesn't seem to obey the default column number: <inputs> <param name="a_vs_b" type="data" format="tabular" label="Hits from querying A against B" description="Tabular file, e.g. BLAST output" /> <param name="b_vs_a" type="data" format="tabular" label="Hits from querying B against A" description="Tabular file, e.g. BLAST output" /> <param name="id1" type="data_column" data_ref="a_vs_b" multiple="False" numerical="False" value="1" label="Column containing query ID" help="This is column 1 in standard BLAST tabular output" /> <param name="id2" type="data_column" data_ref="a_vs_b" multiple="False" numerical="False" value="2" label="Column containing match ID" help="This is column 2 in standard BLAST tabular output"/> <param name="score" type="data_column" data_ref="a_vs_b" multiple="False" numerical="False" value="12" label="Column containing containing score to rank on" help="The bitscore is column 12 in standard BLAST tabular output"/> </inputs> I've tried giving the default column value numerically (as shown), and also using value="c2" etc. Regardless, Galaxy just defaults to the first column. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Peter

Hi Yan, I've moved this discussion to the galaxy-dev list since it pertains to a local installation of Galaxy. Responses to your questions follow, in-line.

If starting with the --daemon flag (as above), you can use: % sh run.sh --stop-daemon If running in the foreground, you can use Ctrl-C to terminate the process. There is a recent bug whereby Ctrl-C is ineffective on some platforms under Python 2.6 - in this case you will have to kill/pkill the process manually. We are working on a fix for the latter. > (3) If I reset universe_wsgi.ini file and want to set an administrator > user(I can add a line in the above file), how can I get the password? Should > I stop galaxy(See question 2) first? then run "./setup.sh" and "./run.sh". setup.sh would have only been necessary prior to running Galaxy the first time, however, this step has recently been removed. If you are referencing documentation that still refers to setup.sh, please let us know so we can update it - I did notice this was still on the "Production Server" page, so I removed it from there. You no longer need to run setup.sh at all. > (4) If I run "setup.sh", will a new file "universe_wsgi.ini" be generated? > if I want to change this file,should I edit it before "run.sh" and after > "setup.sh".

Puzzling test failure with data_column parameter
by Peter Cock 25 Apr '13

25 Apr '13

Hi all, I'm working on a FASTA filter script, as per this email: http://lists.bx.psu.edu/pipermail/galaxy-dev/2010-November/003819.html Current code here: http://bitbucket.org/peterjc/galaxy-central/src/c3ac6d7a02f7/ I've added a basic test, but it won't run (see output below). I think the interesting bit of the error output is this exception: cannot find value/label "blastp_four_human_vs_rhodopsin.tabular" in list control, coming from function set_form_control_value in the twill.utils module. This is something to do with the columns parameter, a multiselect option referencing the columns in this tabular file. Removing the validator makes no difference. However, if I change the columns parameter to a plain text parameter, the test passes: $ hg diff diff -r c3ac6d7a02f7 tools/fasta_tools/fasta_filter_by_id.xml --- a/tools/fasta_tools/fasta_filter_by_id.xml Tue Nov 23 11:37:35 2010 +0000 +++ b/tools/fasta_tools/fasta_filter_by_id.xml Tue Nov 23 14:03:31 2010 +0000 @@ -4,9 +4,7 @@ <inputs> <param name="input_fasta" type="data" format="fasta" label="FASTA file to filter on the identifiers"/> <param name="input_tabular" type="data" format="tabular" label="Tabular file containing FASTA identifiers"/> - <param name="columns" type="data_column" data_ref="input_tabular" multiple="True" numerical="False" label="Column(s) containing FASTA identifiers" help="Multi-select list - hold the appropriate key while clicking to select multiple columns"> - <validator type="no_options" message="Pick at least one column"/> - </param> + <param name="columns" type="text" label="Column(s) containing FASTA identifiers" /> </inputs> <outputs> <data name="output_pos" format="fasta" label="With matched ID" /> I've tried searching the provided wrappers for similar examples (column multi-select from a tabular file). I found filters/uniq.xml (works but uses a bed file rather than a simple tabular file) and stats/cor.xml (needs R and rpy which I don't have installed yet) which have tests, and finally plotting/bar_chart.xml which has no unit tests. Would someone familiar with the internals of the Galaxy tests and how they set tool parameters be able to try reproducing this for me? The branch has all the unit test files required, and there are no new dependencies needed.

Tabular file metadata - columns names
by Peter 23 Feb '13

23 Feb '13

Hi all, I'd like to know more about Galaxy's column metadata for tabular files. In the workflow editor under "Edit Step Actions" you can pick "Assign Columns", and then give column numbers for five predefined cases: Chrom, Start, End, Strand, Name. Do these "named columns" get shown anywhere in the Galaxy UI? For example, in a column select parameter widget? Is it possible to assign these columns in a tool's wrapper XML file? >From http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/ToolConfigSyntax I'm aware of the metadata_source attribute to *copy* the meta data from the input file, but that isn't always relevant. Can I somehow specify that my tool has tabular output where column 1 is "Name"? Is it possible to introduce additional column types? e.g. "evalue" or "Description". Thanks, Peter

run_functional_tests.sh -sid option
by Peter 12 Feb '13

12 Feb '13

Hi, I'm trying to use run_functional_tests.sh to run all the tests for a section (group of tools). I've read the output from: ./run_functional_tests.sh help For example, from the tools_conf.xml.sample we have <section name="ENCODE Tools" id="EncodeTools"> <tool file="encode/gencode_partition.xml" /> <tool file="encode/random_intervals.xml" /> </section> And looking at these tools' XML files, <tool id="gencode_partition1" name="Gencode Partition"> and: <tool id="random_intervals1" name="Random Intervals"> I'd like to run the functional tests for the ENCODE tools, Using the switch for an individual tool id (-id) works, ./run_functional_tests.sh -id gencode_partition1 ... Ran 1 test in 22.302s ... and so does this (well, it say the tool doesn't have any tests which is true in this example): ./run_functional_tests.sh -id random_intervals1 ... Ran 1 test in 0.027s ... However, I also tried using the section id switch (-sid), ./run_functional_tests.sh -sid EncodeTools ... Ran 0 tests in 0.000s ... I also tried using the section name, /run_functional_tests.sh -sid "ENCODE Tools" Is this (-sid not working) a known issue, or am I using it wrong? Thanks, Peter

Hiding a tool via tool_conf.xml
by Peter Cock 30 Oct '12

30 Oct '12

Hi all, I'm aware that in an individual tool's XML wrapper you can add hidden="true" to the <tool> element to hide the tool from the listing shown in Galaxy's left hand panel (but the tool is still loaded and can be called by old workflows etc). Can this be done via the tool_conf.xml file as well? This would seem useful from a system configuration point of view where it seems wrong to edit the tool wrappers themselves. In fact, it might also be nice to add hidden="true" support to <section> as well as <tool> in tool_conf.xml - although I'm not so sure how useful that would be. Peter

Exporting histories through API
by Martin Dahlö 25 Jun '12

25 Jun '12

Hello there As the subject hints, I am trying to export histories through the API. Doing it through the web interface is a breeze, but has it been implemented in the API yet? I could not find anything about it in the examples or by searching the web/this list. I am planning to only use Galaxy through the API to import my data and run some workflows on it, and then export the results. Preferably specific files from the history, but a bundled history like the one you get from the web interface 'Export history' would be ok as well. Has anyone done something like this, and can point me in the right direction? :) Mvh Martin Dahlö --- Bioinformatic support martin.dahlo(a)scilifelab.uu.se +46 18 611 59 59 +46 706 70 79 55 http://www.scilifelab.uu.se/ http://www.uppnex.uu.se ---

by Richard Park 22 Jun '12

Hello, I was wondering what would be the best way to extend Galaxy's API functionality to allow for runtime modification of tool parameters? I have successfully been able to run workflows programmatically using the API, following the basic steps in: scripts/api/execute_workflow.py. scripts/api/example_watch_folder.py However, it is unclear to me, what would be the best way to run workflows through API with specific parameters at various steps. Should I generate new workflows for every workflow that requires different parameters and upload this to galaxy? Or would it be better to extend the API to allow for runtime parameter configuration? If this is the case, any pointers on how to extend this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Richard Park

I have performed a new install of Galaxy for development and deployment purposes. However, when I run the run.sh script I get the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./scripts/paster.py", line 34, in <module> command.run() File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/command.py", line 84, in run invoke(command, command_name, options, args[1:]) File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/command.py", line 123, in invoke exit_code = runner.run(args) File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/command.py", line 218, in run result = self.command() File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/serve.py", line 274, in command relative_to=base, global_conf=vars) File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteScript-1.7.3-py2.6.egg/paste/script/serve.py", line 308, in loadserver relative_to=relative_to, **kw) File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 210, in loadserver return loadobj(SERVER, uri, name=name, **kw) File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 224, in loadobj global_conf=global_conf) File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 248, in loadcontext global_conf=global_conf) File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 278, in _loadconfig return loader.get_context(object_type, name, global_conf) File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 363, in get_context object_type, name=name) File "/hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/eggs/PasteDeploy-1.3.3-py2.6.egg/paste/deploy/loadwsgi.py", line 528, in find_config_section self.filename)) LookupError: No section 'main' (prefixed by 'server') found in config /hpcdata/galaxy-test/galaxy-setup/galaxy-dist/universe_wsgi.ini I have modified the universe_wsgi.ini to reflect the way our production server is configured. The following is the server section of that file: # # Galaxy is configured by default to be useable in a single-user development # environment. To tune the application for a multi-user production # environment, see the documentation at: # # http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/Config/ProductionServer # # Throughout this sample configuration file, except where stated otherwise, # uncommented values override the default if left unset, whereas commented # values are set to the default value. # examples of many of these options are explained in more detail in the wiki: # # Config hackers are encouraged to check there before asking for help. # ---- HTTP Server ---------------------------------------------------------- # Configuration of the internal HTTP server. [server:web0] use = egg:Paste#http port = 8080 host = 0.0.0.0 use_threadpool = true threadpool_workers = 7 # Configuration of web server 2 [server:web1] use = egg:Paste#http port = 8081 host = 0.0.0.0 use_threadpool = true threadpool_workers = 7 # Configuration of web server 3 [server:web2] use = egg:Paste#http port = 8082 host = 0.0.0.0 use_threadpool = true threadpool_workers = 7 # The internal HTTP server to use.

[filter:proxy-prefix] use = egg:PasteDeploy#prefix prefix = /galaxy My production server works fine, but this one will not run. What am I missing? Thanks, Iry
