Re: [galaxy-dev] Plugins
Over next couple days, I'll take a look at what's in lib/galaxy/web/base/pluginframework.py and see if there is a way to refactor it with my stuff in order to get a general plugin framework (galaxy.pluginframework) as proposed by James. Sorry for the delay. Teaching a math class this semester is really eating up my time. Sincerely, Michael E.

Agreed on more generalization and the hook system. Michael's stuff is a good direction to move in.
I know John was looking to use it for dynamic job destinations and dynamic toolbox filters. I'd like to see some lab/community discussion on (even broad stroke) functional requirements and use cases.

Heya, Michael
Right now our only plugin code is located in lib/galaxy/web/base/pluginframework.py. It's only purpose so far is to: - allow locally modified/created code to serve mako templates and static pages/resources from paste. - serve as a super class for the visualization framework.
I think your git repo has some great ideas.

Michael,
Carl has been working on a plugin framework for Galaxy, and John Chilton has made some improvements. It would be great if you could look over what each other has done and come up with some suggestions. I personally am in favor of a very generic hook system where a hook can be defined anywhere in the code and then the user can provide any callable.
I'm fond of the way sup implemented hooks, see the use of HookManager here: https://github.com/sup-heliotrope/sup/blob/develop/lib/sup/time.rb
Your approach is quite similar and I like it.
This makes it easy to have a script that can list all available hooks with their documentation.

I've factored out the plugin discovery from the (page serving) plugin framework and subclassed an initial stab at a hook plugin manager. The page serving responsibilities are now in a separate subclass and the visualization registry is based on that: https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/src/2d0bcb07596c4c688ed3908391d8... It should at least be easier modify. Have a look and let me know if you see any issues or have suggestions. On Tue, Sep 17, 2013 at 11:19 AM, Carl Eberhard <carlfeberhard@gmail.com>wrote:

Hi, Michael It was good meeting you in Athens. You guys are doing amazing things. There currently is no mechanism to install a plugin (either hook or visualization) from the toolshed. I think it's certainly possible (and planned) in the future. I haven't added any hooks for plugins. I would hope there would be some discussion as to the which places in the code would be the most useful and desired within the community. Hopefully, that discussion can be sparked soon. As to the whether we can implement an admin link to reload the entire tool shed without restarting Galaxy: I talked a bit to Greg about it and it might be more possible and easier to reload entire tool sections (for example, 'Data sources'). Would that work for your use case? Carl On Thu, Mar 6, 2014 at 9:00 AM, Michael E. Cotterell <mepcotterell@gmail.com

Carl,
Is there a way for a tool_shed installed tool to provide a plugin? Also, have you actually added any hooks anywhere? If so, where are they documented?
Thanks!

I've factored out the plugin discovery from the (page serving) plugin framework and subclassed an initial stab at a hook plugin manager. The page serving responsibilities are now in a separate subclass and the visualization registry is based on that:

It should at least be easier modify. Have a look and let me know if you
see any issues or have suggestions.

Heya, Michael
I'm currently working in this area as well now - so no worries if your schedule doesn't permit.
The card is here: https://trello.com/c/c2AzV3Xf
Any feedback is appreciated.

Over next couple days, I'll take a look at what's in lib/galaxy/web/base/pluginframework.py and see if there is a way to refactor it with my stuff in order to get a general plugin framework (galaxy.pluginframework) as proposed by James. Sorry for the delay. Teaching a math class this semester is really eating up my time.

Agreed on more generalization and the hook system. Michael's stuff
is a good direction to move in.
I know John was looking to use it for dynamic job destinations and
dynamic toolbox filters. I'd like to see some lab/community discussion on (even broad stroke) functional requirements and use cases.

Carl, is what you have now totally web specific? It would be great to have a general plugin framework (galaxy.pluginframework) which
stuff could perhaps extend?
