Problem Adding a Custom Build in Trackster
by Liisa Koski 08 Mar '11

08 Mar '11

Hello, I am trying to 'Add a Custom Build' to my local instance of Galaxy/Trackster. There seems to be a problem when I enter the chromosome length info, both when I paste directly on the screen and when I use the upload button (for the .len file). After I press Submit I can see the Name and Key info that I specified but it always says that the 'Number of Chroms' is 0. Is there a bug or I am doing something wrong? Thanks for you help, Liisa

Referencing data library directly from tool's input parameter dropdown.
by Rodriguez, Aaron (NIH/NCI) [C] 08 Mar '11

08 Mar '11

Hello all. First of all thanks to Galaxy developers and supporters for this great tool -- I'm experimenting with adding my custom tools to galaxy and I'm very impressed with how simple galaxy makes this process. Some of the tools that I'm adding to my local instance take reference files as a parameter. These files are often large and fairly static. I understand that I can create a data library where users can select the reference file needed and import into "history" for analysis. However, I would like to know if it's possible for a tool's input parameter (dropdown) to enumerate these files from a public data-library (to avoid the steps needed to import from library into history) and have that file pathname become the value for my parameter? As an alternative, would it be possible to load such a drop down from files (of a certain type) existing at some predefined system path? Thanks in advance, -AR

Hi Vasu, Very sorry to hear that you are still having problems. Have you been able to do the update? It was not clear from your email. The latest is: http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/GetGalaxy new: % hg clone http://www.bx.psu.edu/hg/galaxy galaxy-dist upgrade: % hg pull -u -r ca0c4ad2bb39 When you reply, could you note which revision you are using (perhaps you are pulling from galaxy-central instead?)

Hello, I'm interested in using the galaxy tools to analyze some transcriptome libraries I made of maize seedlings. Would it be possible to upload the maize reference genome to the galaxy browser? It's available at the following website: http://ftp.maizesequence.org/current/ Hope this can be done, would be really exciting! Thanks, Karl

Join and Sort in Galaxy
by Felix Hammer 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

Hello, I have some questions about the Join and Sort tools in Galaxy. How are they implemented? Just the standard unix sort and join? I have a quite large tab file (~1,5 million lines), I want to join with a somewhat smaller file (~20 000 lines). How long will this approximately take? Is there a way to view the progress? Can I gain performance if do a sort on the column I want to join? thx, Felix

Requesting your help for a Survey on data privacy while using workflows
by vishal dwivedi 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

Dear Galaxy Users, We are researchers at Carnegie Mellon University who are conducting a survey of users who compose web services in their workflows to build applications. One of the goals of this survey is to better understand the privacy concerns of web service users (or lack thereof), and how well users are able to resolve these concerns. Even if you have no data privacy and security problems while using web services, we would still appreciate your feedback because that would give us a better perspective of the problem scenario. Please take time to fill the following questionnaire: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/RCC7XWT<https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Y9FM836> The survey consists of maximum 17 questions and can be completed in about 10 minutes. There are no correct or incorrect responses. This survey is approved by CMU Institutional Review Board (IRB), and would follow the appropriate safety protocols set by the IRB (Protocol Number: HS11-091). All responses would be treated confidentially and will not be traceable to individual respondents. Thank you in advance for your assistance and time !!
