Hi,
I have a tool that produces a variable number of outputs, which are
written to the tmp database path with the specially formatted name
"%s_%s_%s_%s_%s" % ( 'primary', output1.id, name, 'visible',
file_type
). In lib/galaxy/tools/__init__.py, the history item's "designation" is
set to "name" and the item's "name" is set to output1.name. This
potentially creates many items with the same name, which must be
differentiated either through meta data or by examining the contents of
the file. I would like to request a means to customize the name of the
collected dataset.
A simple but hack-y method would be to append another token to the name
of the file. If this token exists, it would be used as the history
item's name e.g. "primary_123_NAME123_visible_txt_dbkey_NEWNAME". This
would also require that the optional DBKEY token would have to be
validated for non-blank values.
Josh
