Hi all,

I am wondering what is the best way to dynamically update tool data files without having to restart Galaxy.

The context is as follows. A cron job is regularly creating new blast databases (or in general: e.g. tool data needed to fill a dropdown list). The same cron job could be adapted so that the corresponding galaxy tool data file is updated as well.

But I don’t think it is possible to make Galaxy aware of the new data without restarting, is it ?

Or should one follow the root of shared library datasets ? But then, how to configure a tool so that this dataset is used (without manual import into a history ?)

 

Thanks,

Marc
