galaxy testing on 'repeat' elements
by WANGYi 19 Oct '10

19 Oct '10

Hi, Our team is now testing our integrated tools under galaxy testing framework. At present, we are trying to test the '<repeat>' elements in one of our tools, e.g. <repeat name="replicates" title="Replicate"> <param name="tfile" type="data" label="Treatment file"/> <param name="cfile" type="data" label="Control file"/> </repeat> we tried add the following section into the <test> tag and ran the test, but did not make it. <test> <param name="tfile" value="ma2c_treatment_ce4.pair" /> <param name="tfile" value="ma2c_treatment_ce5.pair" /> </test> after searching all over the internet, we were not able to come up with any solution (maybe we missed). I dont know if it proper to ask you a question like this. but we are kinda desprated for this issue. Could you please kindly tell us, how to write the test section when there are two or more 'replicates' inputed? Appreciate so much. Regards Yi

Dynamic output format
by Zhe Chen 19 Oct '10

19 Oct '10

Hi, Can the format of a tool's "output" be dynamic according to the user's input? See example below, when user chose fasta, let the output format be fasta, when user choose table, let the output format be tabular. <input> <param name="outputFormat" type="select" label="Select output format"> <option value="fasta" selected="true">Fasta</option> <option value="table">Table</option> <option value="mase">Mase/IG</option> <option value="pretty">Pretty print</option> <option value="outali">Output aligned</option> <option value="clustal">Clustal</option> <option value="phylipi">Phylip interleaved</option> <option value="phylips">Phylip sequential</option> <option value="msf">MSF</option> <option value="rsf">RSF</option> <option value="megai">MEGA interleaved</option> <option value="megas">MEGA sequential</option> <option value="slx">SLX</option> <option value="gde">GDE</option> <option value="GDEFlat">GDEflat</option> <option value="stockholm">Stockholm</option> <option value="nexusi">Nexus interleaved</option> <option value="nexuss">Nexus sequential</option> <option value="pir">PIR/NBRF</option> <option value="gcg">GCG</option> <option value="raw">Raw</option> </param> </input> <outputs> <data name="output" format="tabular"/> </outputs> Thanks

Fastq_filter fails on large files
by Isabelle Phan 18 Oct '10

18 Oct '10

Hello, The tool fastq_filter worked on 1M reads, but fails (hangs) on 15M reads. I had to kill the job after the user let it run for a whole day. The debug.txt file containing a python function "fastq_read_pass_filter" is created in the files/000/dataset_xxx_files directory. I am getting no error from the galaxy server. I wonder what could cause fastq_filter to fail? The fastx equivalent tool works, but it misses all the options of fastq_filter. I'd be grateful for any hints to help me get fastq_filter to work on large fastq files. Thanks Isabelle

data_column parameter with empty tabular file / FASTA filtering
by Peter 18 Oct '10

18 Oct '10

Hi all, As part of the BLAST+ wrappers I wrote a short Python script to divide a FASTA file into those records with or without an ID found in column of a tabular file: http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/src/tip/tools/ncbi_blast_plus/bl… http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/src/tip/tools/ncbi_blast_plus/bl… While working on the wrapper I ran into a problem: In general a tabular file might contain sequence IDs in any column. When I tried using a data_column parameter it does not work if the tabular file has no rows in it. I think this is actually quite a common situation (e.g. sequences with no BLAST hits, or any tabular file after a strict filter). For BLAST tabular output only columns 1 and 2 contain sequence identifiers (query and subject), so I used a select parameter instead: http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/changeset/aa7f4bdc2eab The functionality to filter a FASTA file using IDs in a tabular file is actually very general. As an example work flow, I want to be able to take a FASTA file of proteins and get a FASTA file of those proteins with prediction transmembrane helices. (1) Upload FASTA file (already in Galaxy) (2) Run TMHMM to get tabular file (see other thread for wrapper) (3) Filter tabular file to get just positive results (already in Galaxy) (4) Filter FASTA file using those IDs found in new tabular file (above script) I therefore think it might make more sense for this script to live under tools/fasta_tools - does that seem reasonable? I would also need to generalise the help text etc - but how should the data_column problem be addressed? Thanks, Peter

Hi all, forget my previous mail, my mistake (it was intended for the samtools-devel mailing list).

Hi there, I guess most of you have seen this: http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/11/514 is it time to resume an old thread (about compression strategies)? d /* Davide Cittaro Cogentech - Consortium for Genomic Technologies via adamello, 16 20139 Milano Italy tel.: +39(02)574303007 e-mail: davide.cittaro(a)ifom-ieo-campus.it */

However, what I originally had in mind was setting the hash bang and executable bit with chmod so that you can do this at the command line: ./hello_world.R "Args go here" Once that works, calling it from Galaxy should be trivial. I think one way to do this is with the little r package: http://code.google.com/p/littler/ Peter

Re: [galaxy-dev] concerning: "All SNPs in Personal Genomes"
by Greg Von Kuster 14 Oct '10

14 Oct '10

Hello Oskar, "N" in the file "All SNPs in Personal Genomes" implies lack of information. The file has SNP data from the Southern African genomes as well as a lot of other published personal genomes. For the other personal genomes, we did not have the consensus calls at all locations (we just have the SNP locations and calls) and hence that lack of information is depicted by the base "N". For the Southern African genomes, the lack of information could be because of the method used e.g. genotyping does not give the consensus call on every location, or because we had no coverage on that location. In the future, please send Galaxy questions / correspondence to one of the Galaxy mail lists ( galaxy-dev(a)bx.psu.edu, galaxy-user(a)bx.psu.edu, galaxy-bugs(a)bx.psu.edu ) instead of my personal email address. Thanks!

Re: [galaxy-dev] [galaxy-user] how to cancel a upload to data library?

And feedback here again? Hi Kevin, Are you using PBS, SGE, or another cluster job runner? Otherwise, these jobs should automatically set to the "error" state upon server startup. Are you sure that they actually run (at the command line), or are they just stuck in the "running" state in the library interface? There was a bug fixed a while back that could be preventing these jobs from being set to error upon server startup. If you're running an older revision of Galaxy, I would suggest updating. If you send us which database you're using (just the database type as in SQLite, Postgres, or MySQL, not the database itself), I can send you appropriate SQL to fix the job state. Unfortunately there is no interface in Galaxy to correct these. --nate > > Sent from my iPod > > On 13-Oct-2010, at 1:23 AM, Jennifer Jackson <jen(a)bx.psu.edu> wrote: > > >Hi Kevin, > > > >Sorry for misunderstanding your question the first time ... you > >are asking about a library upload (not a dataset). > > > >In this case, you will have to manually change the job state in > >the database to 'error' to get Galaxy to stop recovering it at > >start up. > > > >Our developers are curious whether you are using cluster job > >runner and a URL or server directory upload though, since > >otherwise the job should have failed on its own.
