Hi all,
I am trying to add a tool to galaxy. I want to collect some data from the user. The data may contain hundreds of records each has 7 or 8 fields. Either user can upload a spreadsheet for that or I shall provide a template file to fill up the data. When I checked there is no provision for uploading a speadsheet in my galaxy instance. What about the second method? Is it possible to provide a template file for the user?

Two simple options:
(1) have users convert their spreadsheet data to csv/tabular format; Galaxy works well with tabular data.
(2) create your own datatype:

There are many examples for tabular data such as SAM, BED, GFF, etc., in the Galaxy base—see tabular.py and interval.py
Best, J.
Thank you J.
I will try that.
