I'm moving your Trackster question onto the galaxy-dev list:
one issue I keep running into is that it's not super clear how to go about configuring the dynamic tracks you showed off in your talk.
Is there some guidance somewhere that I am missing on this? I confess my own motive is to be able to dynamically interact with a sliding window-based algorithm for measuring DNA replication status from sequencing data. This would help us parameterize the algorithm before running it on the entire data set.
This (very new) galaxy-central changeset:
formalizes tool integration into Trackster. To enable the "Show Tool" option in Trackster for a particular tool, two things need to happen:
(a) add the <trackster_conf/> tag to the tool XML file;
(b) ensure that the tool has parameters supported by Trackster; only integer, float, and static select parameters are currently supported in a tool's interface, but it is straightforward to add support for other parameter types as well, and we'll do so as needed.
We'll create a wiki page soon so that this information is easier to find.
Let us know if you have more questions.
Best,
J.
