Re: [galaxy-dev] Tool to download galaxy datasets locally
by Nicola Soranzo 09 May '18

Dear Evan, you need to setup an environment variable for the tool to specify the directory where users are expected to save their files. One way to do that is: 1) create a directory called EXPORT_DIR_PREFIX in your tool dependencies directory (which by default is `database/dependencies/` ) 2) in this directory create a file called env.sh with a content similar to the following template: EXPORT_DIR_PREFIX=/PATH/WHERE/TO/SAVE/FILES; export EXPORT_DIR_PREFIX 3) create a symlink called `default` inside the EXPORT_DIR_PREFIX directory pointing to the same directory, e.g.: $ cd TOOL_DEPENDENCIES_DIR/EXPORT_DIR_PREFIX/ $ ln -s . default Alternatively, you could define the EXPORT_DIR_PREFIX environment variable in your config/job_conf.xml for the destination where the export_to_cluster tool is going to run (for an example, see `_JAVA_OPTIONS` in config/job_conf.xml.sample_advanced ), but this would define the environment variable also for all the other tools that use that destination (normally not a problem, but worth to mention).

ELIXIR Workshop for Galaxy training material and skills improvement
by Nicola Soranzo 08 May '18

08 May '18

Dear all, we'd like to invite you to the "ELIXIR Workshop for Galaxy training material and skills improvement", which will be held 21-23 May at the Earlham Institute in Norwich, UK: http://www.earlham.ac.uk/elixir-workshop-galaxy-training-material-and-skill… The Galaxy Training Network (GTN) has been working for several years with GOBLET and the ELIXIR Training Platform to create material and deliver training for scientists, developers and system administrators. A selection of 72 tutorials, developed by more than 60 contributors, is already available at http://training.galaxyproject.org/ In this workshop, we intend to improve the participants’ understanding of learning principles, training techniques and best practices for materials preparation. We will then work together to expand the existing collection of Galaxy training materials by covering more topics relevant to the ELIXIR use cases, add missing annotation and metadata and make the materials easily accessible. The workshop will start with a 1-day "Train the Trainer" course, similar to the Carpentries' Instructor Training and the ELIXIR-EXCELERATE Train the Trainer. Here Galaxy trainers will develop an insight into different learning styles, understand what makes a good trainer, and learn new approaches to training from experienced trainers. This course will help them to better contribute and shape the materials during the hackathon. This workshop is kindly sponsored by ELIXIR-UK and the ELIXIR Training Platform. Registration closes soon, hurry up! https://www.eiseverywhere.com/galaxy We look forward to seeing many of you in Norwich!

Best practices for utilising Unique Molecular Indexing (UMI's)
by Brooks, Tony 04 May '18

04 May '18

Hi We are currently seeing a number of methods that are utilising the power of unique molecular indexing. Unfortunately, there is no consensus on how libraries should be configured, and therefore no consensus for how to deal with them within Galaxy. Often libraries that have the UMI placed directly downstream of the first (i7) index, such as ones using the IDT xGen adapter set (https://www.idtdna.com/pages/products/next-generation-sequencing/adapters/x…). Sometimes UMI's exist in place of the second (i5) index (https://www.neb.com/nebnext-direct/nebnext-direct-for-target-enrichment). In both cases, the recommended workflows are convoluted and all the necessary tools do not currently exist in the toolshed (so that the datasets need to be taken out of galaxy, processed and reloaded). It is possible to use bcl2fastq to output the UMI as an additional fastq file, but this would then require me to create a dataset triplicate (not pair) which afaik we can't do (yet). A quick Google/toolshed search had me find UMI-Tools & Je-Suite which both exist in Galaxy. Both these tools assume the UMI is "in-line" (i.e. at the beginning of the read 1 or read2 - not its own read), extract/remove the UMI and place it in the read header, where it is then used further down the line to dedup the bam file. Does anyone know of any tools that would take the UMI from a separate fastq and use it to tag the headers of actual read data. Or alternatively, a tool that will paste the UMI tag onto the 5' end of the read fastq? And whether these steps can be done within Galaxy, or maybe prior to fastq upload? Anyone have a method/workflow for UMI's? Thanks in advance Tony

Hi, I would like to use the info (log) HISAT is showing, for another tool. e.g.: 26781724 reads; of these: 26781724 (100.00%) were unpaired; of these: 2445411 (9.13%) aligned 0 times 20399099 (76.17%) aligned exactly 1 time 3937214 (14.70%) aligned >1 times 90.87% overall alignment rate [bam_sort_core] merging from 21 f Is it possible to access these logs? Cheers Jochen
