The fact that a tool with no inputs causes an error is definitely a bug and should be fixed. (Also surprising since we have tools in Galaxy already that have no inputs, e.g. the "Get Microbial Data" tool). On Jan 15, 2010, at 10:17 AM, Assaf Gordon wrote:
Or just add a dummy input parameter, like so:
========= <inputs> <param name="dummy" type="text" label="Don't touch me" /> </inputs> <outputs> <data format="html" name="output" /> </outputs> =========
It looks silly, but it works just fine (we have couple of tools like that ;) ).

Hi,
that would be indeed a useful feature...
What I did some time ago is to let the user choose some example data (e.g. for different organisms), that will be generated into the history.
Then you have some input, outputs and can write the overview in the tool description.
Cheers, Gunnar

Hi,
Is there a way to provide a tool through galaxy that doesn't need any input parameters? If I just don't specify a parameter I get an error: "AttributeError: Tool instance has no attribute 'inputs'" Specifying a hidden input parameter will load the xml, but in galaxy it won't show a tool overview or execute the tool for you when you click on its name.
Cheers, Jelle
