[galaxy-dev] Changing tool panel ordering [was:] HOWTO for making new toolshed package

12 Sep 2013

      Hi Pieter,

to manipulate the ordering of tools is currently not trivial, as far as
I know. You can add label into your shed_tool_conf.xml and tool_conf.xml
file and they should appear and stay. The final ordering will be a merge
of all your *_tool_conf.xml files into the integrated_tool_panel.xml. If
you change that file you will see that the ordering will change, but
that file can be overwritten. 

I would play with the shed_tool_conf.xml and tool_conf.xml, try to
reorder your tools and delete the integrated_tool_panel.xml file. After
restarting you will see the effects.

In each case, the admin needs to do that.

I have a pull request that enables dynamic filtering of tools by the
user, maybe you are interested in testing:

Cheers,
Bjoern

One extra detail I'm trying to find in the docs but haven't found yet:
How can I ensure that the tools of my package are presented in a
specific order in the menu panel item I selected during install? And
is it possible to define some labels to appear between the tools
(Something like the screenshot below)? Or is this something the admin
should configure in shed_tool_conf.xml? And will this order
configuration be kept also when new versions of the tools are
installed?
Example:

This scenario should be hopefully handled by the automated nightly
tests that run on repositories in the test and main Galaxy tool sheds.
This test framework does not yet provide full coverage, but it
eventually will.  Each repository that has been tested includes a
"Tool test results" container when viewing or managing the repository.

Ok, cool...I get the picture.

One small downside is that then admin has to trust the developer has
the discipline and sound judgment to correctly increase version
numbers when applicable....I'm just thinking of scenarios where there
is a "bad update" released and the admin would like to quickly revert
back to the previous revision after noticing that this update has an
unexpected bug....

Hi Pieter,
...
...
yes that is possible. Have a look at other repositories. You can
only choose between different tool versions, it there are more than
one 'installable version' of a tool. It is not the case in your
example.
...
Lets imagine I only fix some help text in the tool. I do not want to
have separated version, I would prefer to just update the tool in
place.
...
But if I change a version number or increase the dependency version
I would like a new 'installable version' of my tool. The toolshed can
distinguish between such cases.

Hi Greg,

Fantastic, thanks for your detailed answer!
...

...
...
...
...
...

I am trying out some things and I noticed that it is not possible
to
...
...
select a specific revision of a repository for installation (see
...
...
screenshot). I thought I saw you present something like this at
...
...
Oslo...is that possible ?

Hi Greg,

I want to make a toolshed package with the following contents:
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
The above "package" is actually a mercurial repository in the tool

shed.

...
...
·         A number of tools

The following pages will provide all of the information you'll
need

for building Galaxy tools for the Tool Shed.

then the documentation describing defining these relationships is

Is there a HOWTO wiki page where I can find exactly which files I
...
...
should add to the .zip file and how they should be named? Or maybe
an

example package which I could use?
