Hi, I'm interested in developing a tool that would allow easy interaction with the Galaxy API. I started coding and this[1] is what I have so far. [1]https://github.com/cjav/galaxy-api-tools This is a pure "release early, release often" kind of project. In the current state many of the project's goals are missing and current implementation might significantly change. You can however already do something like this: $ galaxy-api-tools import --link --file-type fasta --library "API Imports" --folder R_TEST --description "R_TEST with description." --workflow 2491ee81eec9beee --extension .qual:qual454 --label QUAL:.qual --label FASTA:.fna /local/data/R_TEST/1.fna /local/data/R_TEST/2.fna This will import(only '--link' not copy, copy is the default) these two 454 fasta files with the matching quality files into data library "API Imports" and folder "R_TEST"(it will create both if they don't exists), it will them run a workflow where there are two inputs labeled as FASTA and QUAL assigning the correct file to each, the results will be available in a newly created history. I shamelessly copied/adapted code from '$GALAXY_SOURCE/scripts/api'. I'm releasing this code under BSD-Clause-2 which I think is one of the most open license I could find in the github dropdown menu. Hopefully this license won't have any incompatibility with Galaxy license which seems very open also. I would love to receive comments to help shape this tool. I'm very open to any kind of suggestions. Also, if there is any worry the name of the tool my cause any confusion on the source, please let me know and I'll be happy to change it. Best Carlos
