Hi Srinivas,
I'm not sure I entirely understood your questions, its to late for me
today sorry. But maybe you would like to have a look at:
https://github.com/bgruening/docker-recipes
It's basically a docker base image (galaxy) on top you can create
several specialised images can be created (e.g. galaxy-deeptools). Every
child images is 'just' a set of toolshed tools.
Also have a look at https://trello.com/c/tm1fPvyq and try the new Test
ToolShed feature, which will create Dockerfiles for you!
Let us know how that works for you. It's still all work in progress and
can change or entirely disappear :)
Feedbacks, Pull-Requests welcome!
Cheers,
Bjoern

Hello,
I am writing to inquire if there are considerations which would prevent
creation of multiple instances of Galaxy by cloning a reference Galaxy
installation containing a pre-configured set of tools and related assets. Both
the reference and cloned instances would reside in the same cluster, and are
each built within dedicated virtual machines . A Docker based approach has yet
to be attempted but the same question likely applies.
One issue that was observed in attempting this was that the Tool Shed populates
the “shed_tool_data_table_conf.xml” file with absolute paths to the “.loc”
files for tools installed via the Tool Shed (even though all path related
variables are specified using relative paths in the respective configuration
files). Might there be other similar dependencies or constraints, including
those in the database, that would disallow this clonable Galaxy installation
model from being viable ?
With regard to the Tool Shed updating files with absolute paths: Could the Toolshed be
configured to use relative paths ? Else, would it be OK to update the "file
path" variables within the instances created from the reference installation to
reflect the instance-specific file paths ?
Thanks in advance.
