Hi again!

I was able to implement a quite dirty solution:

first I edited /lib/galaxy/model/mapping.py and extended

assign_mapper( context, User, User.table,

    properties=dict( histories=relation( History, backref="user",

                                         order_by=desc(History.table.c.update_time) ),

                     active_histories=relation( History, primaryjoin=( ( History.table.c.user_id == User.table.c.id ) & ( not_( History.table.c.deleted ) ) ), order_by=desc( History.table.c.update_time ) ),

                     galaxy_sessions=relation( GalaxySession, order_by=desc( GalaxySession.table.c.update_time ) ),

                     stored_workflow_menu_entries=relation( StoredWorkflowMenuEntry, backref="user",

                                                            cascade="all, delete-orphan",

                                                            collection_class=ordering_list( ’order_index’ ) ),

                     _preferences=relation( UserPreference, backref="user", collection_class=attribute_mapped_collection(’name’)),

#                     addresses=relation( UserAddress,

#                                         primaryjoin=( User.table.c.id == UserAddress.table.c.user_id ) )

                     values=relation( FormValues,

                                      primaryjoin=( User.table.c.form_values_id == FormValues.table.c.id ) ),

                     api_keys=relation( APIKeys, backref="user", order_by=desc( APIKeys.table.c.create_time ) ),

                     ) )

by this:

currentHistory=relation( History, primaryjoin=( ( History.table.c.user_id == User.table.c.id ) & ( not_( History.table.c.deleted ) ) & (GalaxySession.table.c.current_history_id == History.table.c.id) ), order_by=desc( GalaxySession.table.c.update_time ) )

As far as I am correct, this selects all current histories of all sessions per user. These histories get sorted by the latest session change

which should always lead to the current history as the first entry.

Inside my tool I use this to get the current history id and hash it to an id which can be used for API calls:

${__app__.security.encode_id( ’%s’ % $__app__.model.User.get($__user_id__).currentHistory[0].id )}

Until now everything seems to work as it should.

Finally I have another question about the histories and API. Referring to this thread: http://gmod.827538.n3.nabble.com/How-to-use-scripts-api-update-py-td3657803.html#a3700436

Are you working on this? Updating history items via the API would be really helpful for my usecase. If not, can you give me some hints where I can have a look at to enable it by my own?

Thanks a lot!

Hi all!

I have two questions about histories in Galaxy:

1. Is it possible to mark/set a history as published via the API?

2. How can I get the ID of the current users history via a tool? Something like

    ${__app__.model.User.get($__user_id__).histories[0].id} ?!

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Sascha
