Yes the idea is to give every regular user the possibility to plug custom tool, and yes it may have some security flaws and we would focus on that in later stages. Thats why I was wondering if it possible to create different views of tool_conf.xml for each user, so if one user plugs say WUBLAST which is available as web service, other users won't be able to do so. But from the way things are currently all users share same tool_conf.xml. I hope I didn't confuse you, do tell me if you need any more info from my side. -Akshay On Mar 29, 2013, at 2:25 AM, "Bossers, Alex" <Alex.Bossers@wur.nl> wrote:
Ok. Yes the rebooting is a pity. However there are opportunities to use tools without restart by using toolsheds. We are currently investigating that in more detail. It doesn't work for configs running over the tool-data/*.loc files though....which is a pity. In the past we used a hack of the system to be able as admin to reload the tools without rebooot.... this isn't for regular users though.
Are you planning to give all users the possibility to plug custom tools? Won't that be insecure?
Cheers Alex

Hey Alex,
Thanks for the quick response. The reason why I asked this question is because we reimplemented our plugin WS-Extension tool, which allows users to import web services as tools in Galaxy. This process involves making changes to tool_conf.xml, hence the restarting process is required.
I also had an extension to this question, is it possible to customize Galaxy server for each user?, I think its not possible since it implies having separate tool_conf.xml for each user. I would appreciate if you could enlighten me on this.
Thanks, -Akshay Choche

Akshay If you have galaxy_reports running on your server you can see the most likely logged in users under: "Users/Date of last login" when you query it for 0 days. You at least have a login per day (not on the hour though). For restarting purposes we ignore "viewers" and monitor the running jobs in galaxy from the admin interface. Additionally we check with htop on the server side of things if galaxy is "very active". Or where you looking for some different functionality? Alex

Hi Akshay,
I am going to post your question over to the galaxy-dev@bx.psu.edu mailing list, to give it better viability.
You could probably run an sql query against a database table to find out this information, but there may be a better way. Let's see if someone has a method worked out they want to share.
Another alternative is to look in our documentation, ReadTheDocs. I did a search on "login" and a few potentials popped up: http://galaxy-dist.readthedocs.org/en/latest/
Going forward, the galaxy-dev list is the list you will want to post to - and consider subscribing to - if you are running a local instance and want to join/discuss issues with the community of other users doing the same. http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/MailingLists http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Support#Mailing_Lists
Thanks!

Hello All,
I was wondering if there is a way to know all the users logged into your local galaxy server?
