Nicola,
Just a note that the resolver setup worked nicely to have manual tool-deps for those that concern infosec – and can now use the tools we need.
Thanks again for the pointer to that!

Nicola,
Thanks! I completely missed that. That’s very useful to know.
Martin – yes a PR is on the to-do list, but unfortunately it’s a low-ish priority as the wish is to be using system / module deps. Have an impending vacation, so am having to get through a lot of stuff right now. Hopefully eventually we can get back to tool shed deps.

Hi David, in the server I am administering I don't use the Tool Shed dependency resolver and is not much work if you are used to environment modules. For more information, see:
https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/admin/dependency_resolvers.html
Cheers, Nicola

David,
You can have multiple versions of tool 'installed' manually (i.e. without shed).
That said, there is an option of working with the IUC to make the wanted packages to be up-to-date and secure. i am pretty sure any PRs this direction will get merged.

Hi Martin,
Thanks for the input - yes there is going to be maintenance headache either way, private tool-shed or not. If we don't go with our own tool-shed though, am I right in thinking we lose versioning for tools? I.E. installing manually into 'tools' and tool_conf.xml I can't use <version> tags like the tool shed stuff does in shed_tool.conf. The infosec concern is mainly with libraries which are provided by tool-shed dependency package installs, not the main software package the tool wrapper is calling. With a tool shed it's feasible then we could keep older versions of tools/wrappers for reproducibility, rebuilding them against updated (but compatible) libraries when there's a security issue, perhaps?
Glad to know that my idea of the workflow isn't totally wrong though.
Thanks,
DT

Hi David,
one thing that you might be missing is that the wrapper for the infosec-approved version might not exist yet (you would have to adapt the older shed-wrapped version if there were any relevant changes). But this largely depends on what software you want to use.
Besides that your flow seems quite accurate. I would probably argue against own tool shed, as the maintenance overhead will probably not be worth it for you.
Let us know if we can help in any way,
thank you for using Galaxy.
Martin

Due to restrictive web access policies for servers here our galaxy server can’t access SourceForge, where many tool-dep downloads are. A request to unblock this for a particular tool-dep package led to our infosec justifiably raising concerns r.e. a tool-dep package that is quite out of date (details sent off list previously). We’re now currently unable to install tool-shed tools that users have requested. The current proposal from our infosec dept is to get all our deps from system repos etc. However the way I’m aware of implementing this for tool-shed tools, which need to run across our cluster, would be something pretty arduous like: * Clone the tool from the upstream toolshed repo * Edit the tool code to remove the package requirements * Identify and install all the requirements on the cluster as system pkgs / environment modules – with attention to versions so things work as expected * Edit the tool code so it knows to load the right environment modules / set right PATH when it runs * Install the tool into our galaxy ‘tools’ dir , not the ‘shed_tools’ * Manually add the tool to galaxy’s tool_conf.xml.main * Schedule downtime to restart galaxy * Test things out …. or we have to host our own tool shed, import tools we want from upstream, edit out the package requirements, provide the deps ourselves. These have all the headaches of merging things in when upstream shed-tools change. Just wondering if I’m missing anything? I know you can turn off ‘handle repository dependencies’ when installing a tool, but the tool still defines ‘requirements’ in its XML file and shows ‘Missing repository/tool dependencies’ in the Admin. Has anyone had any experience of dealing with this kind of situation?
