I could do that but it would mean that no-one could install the tool from the toolshed without also installing this package. 

Maybe I just need to hack this together.

Hi Steve

what happened, when you add this module to the environment the galaxy server is running in? (e.g. by listing the path in the 'run.sh' file)

Hi all,
  this would help in a tool I’m trying to write too but the problem I
have implementing this approach is that my script will need an external
python module - is there any way that I can list dependencies for the
script?  As it happens these are the same dependancies that the tool
itself will need once executed.

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Evan

Yes, this is possible with "dynamic_options"

e.g.:

<tool ...

<inputs>

<param name="year" type="select" label="from which year"
   display="radio" refresh_on_change="true" >
            <option value="/2017" selected="true">2017</option>
    <option value="/2016">2016</option>
            <option value="/2015">2015</option>
</param>

<param name="file" type="select" label="select a run"
  display="radio"
  dynamic_options="ds_readFiles(year)"/>


</inputs>
<outputs>
...
</outputs>
<help>
...
</help>
<code file="more_code.py" />

</tool>

The python function "ds_readFiles" is defined in a extra code file
"more_code.py", which is stored in the same directory as the tool
definition file. The function returns all files with a matching file
name (i.e.year), and could look like:


rDir = "/data/"

def ds_readFiles(year):

  l = os.listdir(rDir)
  p = re.compile('^%s_[0­9]{4}_M[0­9]{5}_[0­9]'%year)
  l.sort()
  path = rDir
  filesoptions = [(s) for s in l if os.path.exists(path + s)]
  files = [(s,s,False) for s in filesoptions if p.match(s)]
  return files



a similar case is also described here:

Hope this helps, Hans-Rudolf

Is it possible to execute a script within a tool xml confit to retrieve
some data and append to the ui depending on the requested data. I.e if I
wanted to get a list of files and provide them as select options before
hitting the execute button.
