exactly, something similar to "auto-hide" feature. This would be a nice option to have, as the intermediate files consume huge amount of memory, especially in case of NGS analysis. - Raj -----Original Message----- From: Peter Cock [mailto:p.j.a.cock@googlemail.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2012 5:09 PM To: Praveen Raj Somarajan Cc: galaxy-dev@lists.bx.psu.edu Subject: Re: [galaxy-dev] Auto delete dataset after workflow run?

Hello All,
Is there a way to set "auto delete" some datafiles at the end of workflow run? I'm asking this because it is sometimes useful to delete some outputs (say intermediate files, .logs, etc), for example "auto delete" .sam file after executing sam-to-bam tool, which would free-up lot of space. This is especially useful when work with large number of samples.
Look forward to any comments/suggestions.
Best,
Raj.
You're not the first to ask, e.g. http://lists.bx.psu.edu/pipermail/galaxy-dev/2011-September/006801.html It would be quite a popular feature I think - perhaps replacing the current "auto hide" feature in workflows with "auto delete" or is that too drastic?
