Dear Galaxy Gurus,
I have been requested to find a way
to tag each job (created when running a workflow) with a "Project
ID".
The user would have the possibility
to enter a "Project ID" (maybe as a workflow parameter) and then,
some mechanism would link all of these jobs with the "Project ID".
Ultimately, the goal would be to create
reports on our computer resources utilisation (total CPU time each project
consumed). This would be really helpful in understanding the costs associated
with the projects analyses.
I know I can use the "job_runner_external_id"
to retrieve the actual CPU usages but I still need to find a way to associate
the jobs with the "Project ID".
As of now, I don't see any *clean* way
to do this.
Anyone would have an idea on how I could
implement this feature? Or tell me if it's not possible at all?
Many thanks for your help.
Galaxy is just incredible!
