I was wondering if Galaxy provides python library for Galaxy tools. For example, if it did happen, filter and sort tools can be expressed like this: galaxy.filter(param1, param2, ...) and galaxy.sort(param1, param2, ...) instead of using command line tools like filtering.py $param1, $param2, ...

I thought it might be useful for python developers with bioblend if they want to extend developments on python after launching galaxy and importing workflows through bioblend.

Any plans and thoughts?

Best,
