Hi,
i'm writing a galaxy wrapper for bismark and trim-galore. Both are plain perl scripts, that wraps around other dependencies (e.g. Bowtie). The idea was to include the perl-scripts directly in the galaxy-wrapper and update the PATH to the REPOSITORY_INSTALL_DIR in the tool_dependency.xml file.
---- <package name="bismark" version="0.7.7"> <install version="1.0"> <actions> <action type="set_environment"> <environment_variable name="PATH" action="prepend_to">$REPOSITORY_INSTALL_DIR</environment_variable> </action> </actions> </install> <readme> bismark, bismark_genome_preparation and bismark_methylation_extractor are shipped with that wrapper </readme> </package> ----
Unfortunately, that was not supported because the toolshed expected at least one "action_type". The attached patch should add that feature.
Furthermore, bowtie2 is only available as zip archive and afaik that was not handled in the toolshed. The attached patch also added check_zipfile(), extract_zip() and zip_extraction_directory() to fully support zip archives.
Thanks! Bjoern
