Re: [galaxy-dev] Is the new tool repositories summary in the monthly newsletter useful?

2014-10-25 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Björn,

A summary page of recent additions would be great, and not just for me.

However, I currently get an email for every new repo and it shouldn't be
hard for me to write a script to scan those emails, follow links, and
generate at least a starting list of tools in wiki markup.  (Should have
done this a while ago.)

So, if adding a summary page is easy, then please do it, but don't do it
just to make creating the wiki summaries easier.

Thanks,

Dave C

 Hi Dave,

 on IRC we had a small discussion how we can make the progress easier for
 you to collect this information. The idea was to create automatically
 Trello cards for IUC and devteam tools and maybe a summary page in the
 Tool Shed.

 Cheers,
 Bjoern

[galaxy-dev] Is the new tool repositories summary in the monthly newsletter useful?

Hi All,

The October Galaxy newsletter went out a week ago.  Buried at the bottom is
this


   -

   36 new ToolShed repos
   https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/GalaxyUpdates/2014_10#ToolShed_Contributions

which lists repositories that have been published in the Galaxy Project
ToolShed in the previous month.

I have two questions about this:

*1. How useful is this summary?*

Compiling it is a manual process and it's kind of mind-numbing.  Most
months it takes around 2 hours (I think).

*2. If we keep the summary, should we put it in the Dev News Briefs
instead?*

I'm kinda thinking this summary is a better match for the Dev News Briefs
(every release), then it is for the general newsletter (every month).


Since we are on a survey binge, I've created a 2 question Google form for
you to vote at:
  http://bit.ly/1qdfs5t

(It has a birthday cat theme!)  If you care, please vote.  Discussion (in
this thread) is also welcome.

And many thanks to IUC for suggesting I send this email.

Thanks,

Dave C

[galaxy-dev] 2014 Galaxy Questionnaire

2014-09-30 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

The Galaxy Project is preparing for our next grant cycle and we are seeking
your feedback and comments on on all things Galaxy. We have created two
questionnaires, each focused on a different way to interact with Galaxy:

   1.

   *Galaxy User Questionnaire
   
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1NT3ma2g7rR-mWA_vgOg2Ia_6VTFiZ86um2JhX2SecCk/formResponse*
   2.

   *Galaxy Admin, Tool Developer, and Galaxy Developer Questionnaire
   
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1lszXJ2lDJ2dYCWKXBk1qT1jO7XdDDfxXmGRCUMZFX2U/viewform*

Please take a few minutes and fill out the surveys that apply to you. The
questionnaires are structured so you can skip topics (whole pages!) that
don't apply to you, and every question is optional.

*And, to thank you for your time and effort, the Galaxy Project will
increase your storage quota on usegalaxy.org https://usegalaxy.org/ by
50GB. *That's a 20% increase.

Let your voice be heard (and, get some storage)!

[galaxy-dev] Proposal: Create a public archive of the GalaxyProject IRC Channel

2014-09-02 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

We would like to change the logging policy for the #galaxyproject IRC
channel https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/GetInvolved#IRC_Channel:

   -

   *Starting later this fall, the #galaxyproject IRC channel
   https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/GetInvolved#IRC_Channel will be logged
   online in a format that can be searched.*

Currently, this channel is not logged anywhere. This change will only be
made if the community agrees that a searchable online log would be an
improvement. *If you have thoughts or comments on this proposal, then
please post them to this Biostar thread http://bit.ly/gxybs8804*. In two
weeks' time (around September 17, 2014), we'll summarize the discussion and
publish a decision.

*Proposal Details:*

Starting sometime after community discussion ends (and assuming that
discussion is favorable):

   1. At least two weeks before the change:
  1. Warnings will be added to the IRC channel information and on the
  wiki, that the log will be publicly archived as of the given start date.
  2.

  The policy change will be announced on Galaxy Biostar
  https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Support/Biostar and the Galaxy-Dev
  and Galaxy-Announce mailing lists
  https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/MailingLists.
  2. On the launch date
  1. The IRC channel (and the wiki) will be updated to clearly state
  that the IRC channel is publicly logged.
  2. Announcements of the change will be posted to Biostar and the
  mailing lists.
  3. IRC postings from the announcement onward will start showing up in
  the public log.
  4.

  The IRC channel log will be included in the Galaxy search engines
  http://galaxyproject.org/search/.

*Why now?*

The project's IRC channel came up at the GalaxyAdmins BoF meetup
https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/GCC2014/BoFs/GalaxyAdmins at GCC2014
https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/GCC2014, where it was lauded as
both a great resource, *and cursed because it is not archived anywhere.* An
action item from that meetup is to propose this change.

https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/GalaxyUpdates/2014_06#GCC2014:_June_30_-_July_2.2C_Baltimore*
   - (OK, that's a lie, but after June 6, late registration rates kick in,
  and you really don't want to pay those.)

   (Don't worry. It's been replaced by Galaxy Biostar
   
https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/GalaxyUpdates/2014_06#Galaxy-User_Being_Retired_June_6
   .)

There are also at least 14 other Galaxy related events
https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/GalaxyUpdates/2014_06#Other_Events in the

Re: [galaxy-dev] Remote User Logout

2014-01-31 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Eric,


 I figured this was as good of a time as any...
 I moved the AD/LDAP/External authentication out of the Apache Proxy page
 (who would think to look there?) and into its own page. I added my
 organisation's information on mod_auth_kerb while I was at it.

 That seemed like a reasonable place to put this sort of information. I've
 also reduced the solution to just the necessary portions, but it would need
 to be tested by someone.


 https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/ExternalUserDatbases#Logging_out_Basic_Auth.27d_Users

 Thanks for updating the admin wiki pages.  The admin wiki pages are
sprawling and any efforts to keep them current and well organized are *dearly
appreciated*.


  I suggest we re-link the community log page to that subsection as it has
 more related information, if that is amenable to everyone.


I've updated
https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Log/2014/LDAPRemoteUserLogout and
added links to the two wiki pages. I left the content on the log page,
although I'm not at all certain that is wise:

The log pages are meant to be a quick and easy way to document stuff and
make it easy to find.  I think that leaving this log page (mostly) as it
was will encourage contribution more than stripping it.  Most people are
not going to be willing to locate the right pages in the wiki for all their
content.  However, I'm hoping that if they can just drop content into one,
time-stamped, no-commitment-to-keep-it-current, place then they will be way
more likely to contribute.

That's my theory anyway.  So far, my theory hasn't particularly panned out,
but the log board is still less than 2 months old.

Thanks again,

Dave C

Hi Eric, Tim,


 Hi Tim,

 Amazing! Thank you for sharing that code. That'll save me some work when
 I get around to implementing it on my galaxies. I'll add a Wiki page for
 it later today, lest this knowledge be lost to the mailing list.


That is an excellent suggestion.  I've created a log board entry for it.:

  https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Logs

The first for 2014.  Feel free to edit, or send me revisions.

Thanks,

[galaxy-dev] Announcing the Galaxy Community Log Board

2013-12-06 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

I am pleased to announce the *Galaxy Community Log Board
http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Logs.*   The Log Board is a place
to share how you addressed a particular task in your Galaxy deployment. Log
entries describe specific solutions to particular tasks, such as the details
of what steps were taken to deploy Galaxy on particular
platformshttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Log/2013/URGIVirtualisation,
or specific stumbling blocks when configuring
Galaxyhttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Log/2013/Example.
Solutions can be described on this
wikihttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Log/2013/Example,
or just some metadata and a link to the description
elsewherehttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Log/2013/UsingBioServicesWithGalaxy.
Log entries are an easy way to help others (and learn from others) by
sharing what you've already done. If you have figured out or documented how
to do something, then this is the ideal forum for sharing that information
with the community.

Share your 
experiencehttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Logs#Add_a_Log_Page
 *now http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Logs#Add_a_Log_Page.*

The Galaxy Community Log Boardhttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Logs
 describes how things can be done, and it complements the (also recently
announced http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/News/GalaxyDeploymentCatalog) *Galaxy
Deployments Catalog http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Deployments*,
which describes different Galaxy installations. Both the Log
Boardhttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Logs

[galaxy-dev] Announcing the Galaxy Deployment Catalog!

2013-12-03 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

*I am pleased to formally announce the Galaxy Deployment Catalog
http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Deployments*, a place to describe
individual Galaxy deployments, and to learn how others in the community are
implementing Galaxy in production environments.

If you have a Galaxy deployment then please take a few minutes to describe
your instance to the community.  There are two ways to do this.

*Use the Wiki Template*

Go to the Using the Wiki section of the catalog home
pagehttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Deployments#Using_the_Wiki,
enter a CamelCase name for your deplloyment, click Create ..., and then
edit, preview, and save the page. Voilà, an entry for your deployment now
exists in the catalog.


*Use the Google Form*

Fill out this Google Form http://bit.ly/gxydeployform.  In a week or two,
a deployment catalog page will be programmatically created and you will
receive an email.


The wiki method requires a wiki login, but gives you control over how the
page appears. The Google form is easier.

Thanks a bunch, and please let me know if you have any questions.

Dave C.

PS: The form submission method was inspired by (stolen from?) Philip
Moncuquet's post
http://dev.list.galaxyproject.org/survey-td4662749.html earlier
this week.

Re: [galaxy-dev] survey

2013-12-02 Thread Dave Clements
Hello Philip, all

I'm working on a complementary effort that I was going to announce later
this week, but maybe I'll just introduce it now.

Something that came out of the GalaxyAdmins meetup in Oslo was a desire for
some way for the community to describe the details of their Galaxy
deployments to a wider audience.  This would allow newcomers to find out
what others have done, and for existing deployments to find out who else is
doing something similar.

To meet that need, this wiki infrastructure was created:
  http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Deployments

This includes sections on user community, but is not as detailed as the
survey.

I have a couple of requests:

1. Philip, is it possible to add another question to the form:
  Can this information be posted to the Galaxy Deployments
Cataloghttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Deployments
?
with a default of no.
For any yes responses, you could send me the info and I could create a
basic entry.

2. I second Phillip's request.  Please do give him a few minutes and fill
out the survey.
I'll make sure the summary gets posted to the wiki.

3. Please give some thought to also creating a deployment page.
 Instructions are
on the wiki.

Thanks a bunch,

Dave C.

PS: This complements http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Logs which I
actually will announce later this week.  Any feedback on either is welcome.

 Hi,

 I hope this is relevant to the dev list but if it is not please let me
 know.

 I was trying to estimate active users out of our registered users. I ended
 counting users that had a job during the last month. How would you guys do
 ?

 During this process I also wanted to see how we were doing in comparison
 to other instance. I set up a simple survey and would greatly appreciate if
 instance admin would take 2 min to complete it. I will publish results here
 (or maybe to some more relevant place, let me know) at the end of the month.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Next GalaxyAdmins Meetup: November 20

2013-11-19 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

Just a reminder that there is a GalaxyAdmins meetup on Wednesday November
20 (tomorrow) at 10am US Central time.  See
http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/GalaxyAdmins/Meetups/2013_11_20

Nate Coraor will talk about the move of usegalaxy.org to TACC, and Srinivas
and myself will talk about followup to the GalaxyAdmins Birds-of-a-feather
session at GCC2013.

Take a look at these two draft implementations of action items from that
discussion:

   1. Galaxy Deployment
Pageshttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Deployments
   2. Galaxy Log Pages http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/Logs

Please come prepared to discuss what you would like to see in these pages,
and make suggestions on how to make it easy to create these documents.


Finally, it takes a few minutes to connect to the meetup technology.
 Please give yourself 5 or 10 minutes in advance to connect.

Thanks,

Dave C

Re: [galaxy-dev] wiki contributions: Admin/Config/ProFTPd_with_AD

2013-11-16 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Eric,

I've pasted the text into the
http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/ProFTPd_with_AD page.  I used
the Apache syntax highlighter for the ProFTPd configuration file snippets,
which I'm pretty sure is not exactly right, but I'm guessing it's close
enough.

To unlock a page for editing you need to create an account, login, and then
edit the page.  This is a big pain until your account becomes *vetted*.
 Until then you have to answer Galaxy trivial pursuit  questions on every
save.  We vet accounts on request, or once a month, whichever happens
sooner.

Thanks for contributing this,

Dave C

 # Configuring ProFTPD with OpenLDAP

 I've found a set of working options for using ProFTPD with OpenLDAP
 servers (instead of AD).

 This configuration file can be modified and placed in
 `/etc/proftpd/conf.d/galaxy.conf

 Using the /conf.d/ directory, you can allow the ProFTPd to serve both
 local users (with PAM authentication) in the main configuration file,
 AND galaxy users on another port.

 ```
 VirtualHost xxx.yyy.zzz
 RequireValidShell   off
 Usergalaxy
 Group   galaxy
 Umask   137 027
 AllowOverwrite  on

 # Ensure auth is LDAP
 AuthPAM off
 AuthOrder   mod_ldap.c

 # Serve this VirtualHost on port 4000
 Port4000

 # LDAP Bind information
 LDAPServer  ldaps://xxx.yyy.zzz/??sub
 LDAPUsers   ou=People,dc=yyy,dc=zzz  (uid=%u)
 LDAPAuthBinds   on

 # Force those numbers even if LDAP finds a valid UID/GID
 LDAPDefaultUID  1003
 LDAPDefaultGID  1003
 LDAPForceDefaultUID on
 LDAPForceDefaultGID on

 # Please generate home dir with user/group rwx permissions.
 Could probably be stricter
 CreateHome  on 770
 LDAPGenerateHomedir on 770

 # Force this homedir even if LDAP said something different
 LDAPForceGeneratedHomedir   on
 LDAPGenerateHomedirPrefix
 /home/galaxy/galaxy/database/ftp/%u...@cpt.tamu.edu

 # The username is already incorporated in the %u, use this or it
 will get appended again
 LDAPGenerateHomedirPrefixNoUsername on

 TransferLog /var/log/proftpd/xfer-galaxy.log

 # Cause every FTP user to be jailed (chrooted) into their home
 directory
 DefaultRoot
 /home/galaxy/galaxy/database/ftp/%u...@cpt.tamu.edu
 # Allow users to resume interrupted uploads
 AllowStoreRestart   on
 # I set these as my passive ports because I run a very strict
 firewall. Change as needed
 PassivePorts49152 5
 /VirtualHost
 ```

 Notably, this configuration allows a galaxy virtualhost to coexist with
 the normal FTP capabilities provided by ProFTPd, so users can still
 access their home directories AND galaxy users can upload to galaxy.
 Authentication can of course be changed to suit one's needs.

 # TLS Configuration

 If you're running the galaxy FTP portion under a VirtualHost, like
 described above, you'll notice that TLS directives placed in the main
 proftpd.conf file do not apply to VirtualHosts. As such, you can add a
 section that looks like this to every VirtualHost that needs to be secured

 ```
 IfModule mod_tls.c
 TLSEngine   on
 TLSLog  /var/log/proftpd/tls.galaxy.log
 # Your cert and private key
 TLSRSACertificateFile   /etc/ssl/certs/my.crt
 TLSRSACertificateKeyFile/etc/ssl/private/my.key
 TLSCACertificateFile/etc/ssl/certs/ca.bundle
 # I've found that this is required for FileZilla
 TLSOptionsNoCertRequest EnableDiags NoSessionReuseRequired
 # Most clients won't be sending certs
 TLSVerifyClient off
 TLSRequired on
 /IfModule
 ```

Hi Samuel, everyone,

There is now a Vimeo channel containing all 25 taped talks from GCC2013:
  https://vimeo.com/channels/581875

We're still figuring out how to best use Vimeo.  Please do let us know if
you have any suggestions for how to improve the site.  Look for more
content here going forward.

And it's on a Vimeo Plus account, so you won't see any ads for phones,
football teams, telescopes, or faster than light travel.  :-)

Re: [galaxy-dev] Creating Galaxy Admin / Local Install Mailing List - Updates?

2013-09-12 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Hans-Rudolf, Adam,

As the BoF page indicates, we decided not to do this, for the reasons
listed on the page.  So, for now, we won't create a separate email list, or
use MailMan topics (which I had high hopes for).

However, we may not be done with this yet.  The plan is still to move
Galaxy-User to the BioStar forum platform.  At that point we will take a
hard look at implementing a Galaxy-Admin forum in BioStar.


As for the September 2013 GalaxyAdmins meetup - it is not going to happen.
This is entirely because I dropped the ball.  Unfortunately, I'm not
optimistic about having one in October either, as I'll be doing workshops
in South Africa for much of that month.

However, if someone wants to take the lead for lining up content for a
September or October meetup please step forward now and Srinivas and I will
do what we can to make it happen.

Thanks,

Dave C

 The Devel list is very chatty and while my filters do a good job, I
 think it will be easier for others to find help on their own if it was
 on a separate mailing list It would be easier to search and look
 back at previous threads.

 However, the added benefit of having the devel list is that we get
 feedback from Galaxy Developers

[galaxy-dev] Statistical Genomics Post-doctoral Position in Makova Lab at Penn State

2013-09-10 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

There's a post-doc opening in the Makova Lab at Penn State.  See below.

Dave C

Are you interested in genomics and do you have skills in Bioinformatics,
Computational Biology and Statistics? The Makova lab in the Department of
Biology at The Pennsylvania State University is looking to hire a
postdoctoral researcher for an NSF-funded project examining regional
variation in mutation rates (see our recent publication in PNAS:
Kuruppumullage Don, Ananda, Chiaromonte, Makova
2013)http://www.pnas.org//content/early/2013/08/16/1221792110.abstract.
With new sequencing technologies, multiple human genomes and their detailed
annotations (e.g., ENCODE) are suddenly accessible to us. This gives us a
terrific opportunity to explore previously inaccessible evolutionary
processes (e.g., mutation) and other biological associations (location of
genes in certain mutation states, as identified by HMMs). Such knowledge is
vital in a clinical setting where disease mutations need to be evaluated.
Our resources and links with medical researchers at Hershey Medical School
and computational biologists from the Galaxy
teamhttp://galaxyproject.org/put us in a great position to address
these questions.

Candidates should have experience in bioinformatics, working knowledge of
statistics and should have a broad understanding of molecular biology and
genetics. Familiarity with next-generation sequencing data analysis is
desirable. A PhD is required. You will be joining an established dynamic
group. We are part of the Center for Medical
Genomicshttp://www.huck.psu.edu/center/medical-genomicsand of the
Center
for Comparative Genomics and Bioinformatics http://www.bx.psu.edu/. Penn
State is a vibrant scientific community with particular strengths in
genomics, bioinformatics and molecular evolution. Our location, in State
College, Pennsylvania, is known for excellent schools and numerous
opportunities for outdoor activities.
The starting date is flexible, with an earlier date preferred. This
position is funded for one year from date of hire, with good possibility of
refunding. Interested applicants should send a pdf with a CV, a statement
of research interests, and contact information for three referees to Kateryna
Makova kmak...@bx.psu.edu, indicating postdoc in the subject line.
Employment will require successful completion of background check(s) in
accordance with University policies. Penn State is committed to affirmative
action, equal opportunity, and the diversity of its workforce.

Re: [galaxy-dev] ZFS storage recommendations

Hi Joachim,

Something that may help with benchmarking:  At the July 2012 GalaxyAdmins
meetup, Anne Black-Ziegelbein talked about how they evaluated filesystem
options.  She also included benchmarking scripts and data.  See

  optimize performance? The purpose is to share the database over NFS to
 the
  Galaxy VM.

 Are you moving the PostgreSQL/MySQL database over to ZFS or the actual
 storage of your datasets over to ZFS? I am assuming the latter.
 Remember, ZFS is just a file system, you still need a protocol, like
 NFS, to export the data to each of your machines. This is going to be
 your bottleneck, luckily the NFS clients supports write caching as
 described in our test here[1].

 On our HPC cluster, we run xfs filesystem on top of Gluster and we
 have another filesystem using xfs on top of FraunhoferFS. I did test
 out ZFS on Linux roughly a year ago and in terms of Read/Write on a
 single machine it was slower than native ext4 and XFS. This of course
 was to be expected. However the added benefit of ZFS may be more
 favorable in your case, Snapshots, disk management, ZIL/SSD caching,
 etc. If you use a distributed filesystem like Gluster, FraunhoferFS,
 or even Lustre (2.x branch supports ZFS!) you will most certainly get
 some very good read/write speeds.

 However, it sounds like you are using a single machine, so your
 read/write is going to be slower than native ext4 and XFS --- trust

 When I was using ZFS, this ZFSBuild[2] website was most helpful.

[galaxy-dev] Galaxy Release Cycle Length

2013-08-20 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

At one of the GCC2013 Birds of a Feather
sessionshttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/GCC2013/BoF/PublicGalaxyServers
the
group was very clear that they would like to see less frequent releases of
Galaxy.  We're currently aiming to do a release every 2 months and have
been pretty successful at making that target.  In the past, we have tried
doing releases more often and less often.

Is there a sweet spot for the time between releases?

Please reply to the group.  We are interested in a discussion.

Thanks,

Dave C

 Thanks for the update, Dave!

 Was delighted to see that the videos from all the talks (except lightning
 talks) are up at:
 http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/**Events/GCC2013/Programhttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/GCC2013/Program


And I am personally very impressed with the quality of those videos.


 I wanted to ask though, are there specific reasons for not using a service
 like YouTube / Vimeo etc?


Yes!  Um, but I can't remember what they are (sadly, this is true).  We'll
talk about this on the next outreach call, and I'll post here what we
decide.

And unlike what I said in the email, the Galaxy community has a new *Proteomics
*mailing 
listhttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/GalaxyUpdates/2013_08#New_Galaxy_Proteomics_Mailing_List
.

Thanks,

Dave C


 That would make sharing on Google+ / Twitter / Facebook etc much nicer,
 since you get a preview and an in-page embedded player, (possibly) enabled
 commenting etc, which I think would help spread the word about Galaxy
 even more.

 Just my 5c, and big thanks for the hard work with putting all this up! (I
 know it is a tremendous lot of work)

 Best Regards
 // Samuel

Re: [galaxy-dev] Information for Galaxy Event Horizon

2013-06-03 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Sarah,

We'd be happy to put this on the Galaxy Event Horizon page on the wiki.
 Since the event is over, we would list it in the past events section.

Is there a web page for the workshop or slides that we can link to?

And, for future reference, wiki update requests can be sent directly
to Galaxy Outreach outre...@galaxyproject.org.

Thanks,

Dave C.

Re: [galaxy-dev] GalaxyAdmins Group: Future Directions?

2013-04-24 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

Just some minor updates to refresh this thread.  Most of this will be
described in more detail in separate emails over the next two weeks.

First, the next web meetup will be May 15.  We haven't nailed down a main
speaker yet, but Dannon Baker will be giving the project update.

Second, I've created a Birds-of-a-Feather (BoF) session at GCC2013 to
continue, and maybe just finish, this discussion in person at the meeting
(see http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/GCC2013/BoF/GalaxyAdmins).  If
you are interested in participating in that BoF, either send me an email,
or add your name to that wiki page.  (We will officially announce GCC2013
BoFs in a few weeks - after the poster abstract deadline, but feel free to
get a head start and add your own now.  :-)

Third, should we start a separate email list for GalaxyAdmins business?  It
would have far fewer members and have far less traffic than Galaxy-Dev.
 I'm in favor of it.  If you have an opinion, please post here.

Thanks,

Dave C

 I have kept track of the head counts for most meetups:

 So, maybe converging on mid-teens?  This number is not as high as I had
 hoped.  Srinivas, is there any way to tell how many times the screencasts
 have been watched afterword?


 I'm see the group as complimentary to Galaxy-Dev, and I am leaning towards
 creating a Galaxy-Admins maling list that is purely about the group and
 group activities (Ann BZ's idea originally).  It would not be a support
 channel and any stray support postings would get redirected to Galaxy-Dev
 (or Galaxy-User, if that's where they belong).  We would still post
 activities to Galaxy-Dev as well, but any group business (like this
 discussion) would happen only on Galaxy-Admins.


 On the group leadership issue I very much want the group to be led by
 people that are not part of the core team.  I am quite willing to continue
 to fill the supportive role I've been doing for the past year.  If
 GalaxyAdmins is to become a voice for the community at some point in the
 future, it should very definitely not be led by the core team.  However, if
 our future consists only of bi-monthly meetups (which have been great!)
 then it does not matter as much.

 I second most of your thoughts. However, I am not sure of the idea of
 creating a full-fledged user group with additional opportunities for

 I am definitively in favor of a dual leadership - one person from the

Re: [galaxy-dev] Teaching using Galaxy

2013-04-24 Thread Dave Clements
Hi David,

Using Galaxy to teach undergraduates is a long term interest of mine.
 Which, unfortunately, does not mean I have yet put a lot of thought into
it.  However, lack of thought hasn't stopped me yet.

First, this topic was discussed in a breakout at last year's GCC:

http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/GCC2012/Program/Breakouts/BioinformaticsTraining

That's more of a discussion than a set of best practices.


What do you want them to spend time learning?  Do you want them to learn
the (sometimes grinding) details of using the command line, and how to
install software and their dependencies on a Linux box?  Or do you want to
focus mainly on the high level stuff like here is how and why BLAST works,
and get some practice using it?

I think this question of focus is a central one, and it's one that
well-informed people disagree on.  Galaxy is a great platform for focussing
on the high-level stuff and avoiding the frustration that can come with
installing a C compiler, for example.  On the other hand, if you really
want them to learn the command line, then you might want to start elsewhere.

If you do use Galaxy for teaching, there are a couple of ways you could do
it.  First, I recommend setting up your own server(s) either locally or on
the cloud.  (The AWS in Education grant program is built just for this
case.)  If you wanted to teach them a mixture of high-level and low level,
you could start them out as users on a shared server, and then later in the
course have them setup their own Galaxy on a cloud instance.

Also, for Galaxy training we find that published histories, workflows, and
Galaxy Pages, are a superb way to create exercises.

Hope this helps,

Dave C.

 Hi everybody!

 I am currently creating a bioinformatics course for undergraduate

 Galaxy as their everyday platform where they would learn the basics and use

 Is there any available resources about using Galaxy for teaching
 (undergraduates)?

 Any suggestions of good textbooks? Not a Galaxy textbook of course, but a
 bioinformatics textbook that would be a good companion to help the
 students understand the basics behind the tools.

 Thanks,

Re: [galaxy-dev] Teaching using Galaxy

2013-04-24 Thread Dave Clements
Hi David,

Galaxy does sound like a great match for this course.  It could also play a
(smaller) part in the other course you are considering.  Part of the course
could include installing Galaxy and wrapping other tools to put into it.
 We are a Python based framework

I do strongly recommend you look at http://aws.amazon.com/grants/ for both
courses.  We have been using Amazon in our workshops for a year now and it
has been a big win.

There is also a wealth of material out there on how other people train
using Galaxy.  See

  http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events#Past_Events - lots of links to
presentations
  http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Documents/Presentations - same material,
different order
  http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Learn - the Galaxy learning hub, especially
  http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Learn#Other_Tutorials

And, maybe, hopefully, real soon now, there will be a Galaxy Teaching and
Training hub page as well (been on my TODO list for a while, but expect
something before GCC2013, really).

 Thanks Dave!

 The focus is clearly more like your second description. The course is not
 intended to show them how to use command lines, or how to navigate in a
 UNIX environment and how to program. In fact, I think some would call what
 I have in mind more of a computational biology course than a
 bioinformatics course, but I think it is not really important here. I'm
 thinking of another course to introduce them to the UNIX environment and
 using Python to script simple programs, but for this one, I'd prefer
 staying away from a terminal that can be horrifying at first (for most
 students, black screen = evil)

 So, the course is about knowing the tools and their basics, and how to use
 them (in this case using Galaxy as the platform). What is a sequence
 alignment, why should we do a sequence alignment, how a sequence alignment
 work, and how can I do one in Galaxy. This is only one example, other (and
 often inter-related) topics would include BLAST, phylogenetics, sequence
 polymorphisms, and so on, up to analyzing next-generation sequencing data...

 Regarding how I'll set my environment, I was thinking of setting a local
 instance (I have one on my computer right now and I'm already getting
 familiar with it). The hardware on which I'll set the instance for the
 course is another issue, but this is not the topic of this email...

 I'll have a better look at how I could use published histories and
 workflows...

 Thanks,

 DJ

[galaxy-dev] Call for papers for a special GCC2013 and Galaxy series in GigaScience

2013-04-04 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

I am pleased to inform you that talks presented at the 2013 Galaxy
Community conference will be eligible for consideration to be published in
the journal *GigaScience* and that BGI will generously cover the article
processing fees for these articles.  See the announcement below for details.

thanks,

Dave C



The 2013 Galaxy Community Conference
(GCC2013)http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/GCC2013
 and BioMed Central http://www.biomedcentral.com/ are announcing a
special thematic series in *GigaScience http://www.gigasciencejournal.com/
*, a new journal co-published in collaboration between BGI
Shenzhenhttp://www.genomics.cn/en/index
 and BioMed Central http://www.biomedcentral.com/ focused on studies
utilizing large-scale datasets and workflows.
Galaxyhttp://galaxyproject.org/ is
an open, web-based platform for data intensive biomedical research allowing
their growing community of users to reproduce and share analyses. All
accepted oral presentations from the meeting will be eligible for
consideration in the series, and working with the scientific
committeehttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Events/GCC2013/Organizers#Scientific_Committee,
peer review will be coordinated, thorough and timely. BGI has been
generously covering the open-access article-processing
chargeshttp://www.gigasciencejournal.com/about/apcfaq for
the journal’s launch, and this offer will be extended to all submissions
from the 2013 conference.

Covering the themes of the conference, discussion and research is
considered highlighting best practice for local Galaxy installation,
management and use, as well as interesting tools, data sources, or novel
uses of Galaxy. Addressing many of the goals of Galaxy to enable more
accessible, reproducible, and transparent genomic science, submissions can
utilize a novel format, where all of the workflows, tools and supporting
data can be hosted and integrated into accepted papers using independently
citable digital object
identifiershttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_object_identifier
 from the journal's Giga-Galaxy server http://galaxy.cbiit.cuhk.edu.hk/
and GigaDB database http://gigadb.org/.

[galaxy-dev] GalaxyAdmins Group: Future Directions?

2013-04-01 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

The GalaxyAdmins group is coming up on it's one year anniversary
(coinciding with GCC2013) and this is a good opportunity to discuss what
the future of the group should be.

Some starting topics for discussion are on the GalaxyAdmins Future
Directions page (http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Community/GalaxyAdmins/Future).
 These include

 * What should the group's goals and activities be?
 * What type of leadership structure should the group have, and how should
it be selected?

The discussion, however, is wide open to any topic relevant to the group.
 If you have any opinions or suggestions please reply to the group.  Anyone
with an interest in the group is encouraged to post.

Once the discussion settles, I will summarize the discussion on the wiki
page and suggest an action plan for making those things happen.

Thanks,

Dave C.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Cloudman on openstack

2013-03-21 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Zeeshan,

There has actually been quite a bit of work on supporting CloudMan on
OpenStack.  The whole NECTAR deployment in Australia is based on OpenStack.
 What there has not been, as far as I know, is documentation about it.

I suggest creating a Trello card on this (see
http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Issues#Create_an_Issue).  That will allow
others to comment on it and up-vote it, which will make it get done sooner.

Sorry not to be of more help right now.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Search software on public Galaxy servers

2013-03-03 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Bernardo,

I'm intrigued by this idea.  It might be possible to build a Google custom
search, similar to the Tools tab of the usegalaxy search (
http://galaxyproject.org/search/usegalaxy/).  That's would not be an ideal
solution, but it would be quick to implement.

Let me take a look at this in a week or two (traveling this week) and see
if searching ~28 sites is tractable/possible with a free Google custom
search.

Thanks,

Dave C

 Due to the increasing Galaxy public servers

 would be very useful to have a search tool in order to look for software

 Since I know this is not available. Will it be feasible?

 Here is the Trello Card https://trello.com/c/FdF5h17c

[galaxy-dev] Galaxy @ GMOD2013 Biocuration 2013

2013-02-19 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

There are a couple of things going on with the GMOD
Projecthttp://gmod.org/wiki/ that
the Galaxy Community might be interested in. If you aren't familiar with
GMOD, it is a federation of open-source projects and tools that enable
visualizing, annotating, managing, and analyzing biological research data.
 GMOD includes Galaxy and several other widely used tools such as
BioMarthttp://gmod.org/wiki/BioMart
, InterMine http://gmod.org/wiki/InterMine, MAKERhttp://gmod.org/wiki/MAKER
, Chado http://gmod.org/wiki/Chado and GBrowsehttp://gmod.org/wiki/GBrowse
 and JBrowse http://gmod.org/wiki/JBrowse.

The first is that GMOD is running a community-wide
surveyhttp://gmod.org/survey.html through
March 1. The survey aims to find out how you are using GMOD, what you find
useful (or otherwise), what support you need, and some information on the
GMOD components you use.  The survey results will be published at
gmod.organd past surveys have been extremely useful to the project.
If that's not
enough motivation, once you are done with the survey, you can enter to win
a free genome profile from 23andMe.

   -

   → *C'mon, take the dang survey http://gmod.org/survey.html.*

The second is that registration is now open for the 2013 GMOD
Meetinghttp://gmod.org/wiki/April%202013%20GMOD%20Meeting being
held in Cambridge, UK, April 5 and 6.  There will be a Galaxy presence (at
least a project update, and I'm lobbying for a
CloudManhttp://wiki.galaxyproject.org/CloudMan workshop
as well (and you could lobby too! h...@gmod.org)).

Finally, Biocuration 2013 http://www.ebi.ac.uk/biocuration2013/home is
immediately after the GMOD Meeting, and also in Cambridge.  Biocuration
will feature a GO Galaxy
Workshophttp://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php/GO_Galaxy_Workshop_at_Biocuration_2013
about
using Galaxy to reason with ontologies.

Thanks,

Dave Clements

Hi Carlos,

There does not appear to be an email address associated with your account.
 I will try to associate your account with your GMail account and let you
know (off-list) when I think that is done.

And, administrative requests like these can also be sent directly to

difference between wiki is broken is and administrative request is not

Re: [galaxy-dev] Is there any timeout in Galaxy

2012-11-15 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Akshay,

I don't know the answer to your question.  So:

1) I went to http://galaxyproject.org/search/web/ and searched for
timeout and then timeout workflow.  There are lots of email threads
(and I learned some stuff :-), but I didn't find a direct answer to your
question.

2) I'm sending your question to the galaxy-dev list where it will be seen
by hundreds of galaxy admins and tool developers.  (And this thread will
also be found by any future searches.)

Thanks,

Dave C

 Hello,

 My name is Akshay and I am a computer science graduate student at UGA in
 Dr. Kissinger's Lab. We have created an extension to galaxy which allowed
 users to add web services as tools into galaxy, these could be either used
 as stand-alone or in a workflow. I wanted to know if Galaxy employs any
 time out strategy.

 Consider a case where I have a workflow with BLASTP now it takes some time
 to run blast and then get result form it. When I try that experiment as
 standalone (i.e., running the run method first and then after several mins
 getting result using job id works) however when I create a workflow in
 which one tool being run method of blast followed by getresult, galaxy
 seems to time out.

 Would appreciate your feedback on the same.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Galaxy at Duke

2012-11-06 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Alan,

I'm CC'ing the Galaxy-Dev list on my response to your question.

I talked with Jen Jackson on this.  Her suggestion is that the symlink is
most likely the problem somehow - this time.  When in doubt, getting rid of
these good place to start. So recommended starting solution to try - use
full paths for everything.  Also probably keep all on same partition for
the best performance, but that would be hard to defend (there was some
debate about this recently).

Many thanks to Jen for her (as always) careful consideration.

Dave C.

  Hey Dave,

 Thanks for getting back in touch with me.

 We are running our galaxy instance on a vm... with Centos (RHEL) 6.2, 2
 vcpus, and 2gb vram, with a remote postgresql prod server as our database
 instance.

 Our first issue was trying to get it so we could load sequence and larger
 files directly from an nfs mounted directory on the server, without
 uploading via the web (php vs large files problem.) We accomplished this
 via the data libraries interface but it's still not very user intuitive.

 Our first demo user attempted to upload 3 large files and actually filled
 up the / partition on the server as galaxy was installed at /usr/local.

 After scrapping and rebuilding that, we now have a several hundred GB nfs
 partition, mounted and /usr/local/galaxy is a symlink to a folder on this
 volume.

 The issue we are currently seeing is during an upload, or even just
 linking files it runs for a while before erroring out and saying there is
 no information on the error. The file seems to be there and taking up the
 correct amount of disk space but galaxy has a red bar.

 The galaxy server instance is running back grounded in a screen so we can
 always switch over and look at the output it shows to standard out as
 errors happen, and it seems that it has trouble changing permissions on the
 files in the nfs directory, even though, root squash is disabled, and the
 entire directory is 777 at the top level and everything underneath is owned
 galaxy:galaxy.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Integrating Galaxy with JIRA for auto-ticket opening upon report

Hi Ann,

This code has been to added to the queue of items to be folded into the
main release.  A developer will be in touch if and when they have questions.

Thanks for submitting this.

 Hi -

 We have integrated our local galaxy with JIRA such that when problems are
 reported through the galaxy interface, a problem ticket is automatically
 opened up.  I had to make very minor changes to Galaxy in support of this,
 and I am contributing back my changes in this email in hopes they can be
 integrated in.

 What I changed:

 1) config.py - support of a new config parm : error_email_from
 2) dataset.py report_error - to use the new from email address if
 specified.
 3) added in the new config parm to my universe_wsgi.* files

error_email_to = jira-galaxy@blah
error_email_from = galaxy-admin@blah

 I am attaching a zipper of the code changes.

 Thanks,

 Ann

Hello all,

The original email included a link to register for GCC2011.  While, gosh,
that was a great meeting, it might have been more helpful to provide you
with the link to this year's registration link instead:

Re: [galaxy-dev] Interested in speaking with other institutions deploying Galaxy locally?

2012-04-29 Thread Dave Clements
Hi Ryan, Ann, and everyone else

I second what Nate says (I always do :-).  I too like that it is user
driven.  And, while I am not a developer, I do plan on being on the call as
often as possible.

I can also offer my support for logistical and any other support.  Ann,
please let me know if you want help with getting this going and getting the
word out.


On a related note,   With Matloob's email, we have at least 3
organizations in Australia and New Zealand that are interested. I know that
there are many more Galaxy installations in that part of the world (and you
have Enis and Ross in Australia now).  Would this be a good opportunity to
set up the first (to my knowledge) regional user group?  If anyone thinks
this is a good idea, please respond (and create a new thread).


Finally, Ann, thanks for starting this.

 Hi,

 I've got an implementation of some proteomics tools going well in
 Galaxy on AWS EC2 under Cloudman. Thanks for the help along the way.

 I need to drive the costs down a bit. I'm using an m1.large AMI and
 it's costing about $180 - $200 / month. This is about 55% storage and 45%
 instance costs. That's peanuts in some senses but for now we need to get it
 down so that it comes out of petty cash for the department, while the case
 is proven for it's use.

 I have a few questions and would appreciate ny insights ..


 1. AWS has just released an m1.medium and m1.small instance type, which
 are 1/2 and 1/4 the cost of m1.large.

 http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/
 http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/

 I tried the m1.small and m1.medium with the latest Cloudman AMI *  
 *galaxy-cloudman-2011-03-22
 (ami-da58aab3)
 All seemed to install ok, but the Tools took up tp 30 minutes to start
 execution on m1.medium, and never started on m1.small.

 m1.medium only added about 15% to run times compared with m1.large,
 can't say for m1.small. t1.micro does run (and for free in my Free Tier
 first year) but blows execution times out by a factor of about 3 which is
 too much.

 Has anyone tried these new Instance Types ? (m1.small/medium)

 I have no real experience with these instance types yet either so maybe
 someone else can chime in on this?



 2. The vast majority of the storage costs are fro the Gemome databases
 in the 700GB /mnt/galaxyIndices, which I don't need. Can this be reduced to
 the bare essentials ?


 You can do this manually:
 1. Start a new Galaxy cluster (ie, one you can easily delete later)
 2. ssh into the master instance and delete whatever genomes you don't
 need/want (these are all located under /mnt/galaxyIndices)
 3. Create a new EBS volume of size that'll fit whatever's left on the
 original volume, attach it and mount it
 4. Copy over the data from the original volume to the new one while
 keeping the directory structure the same (rsync is probably the best tool
 for this)
 5. Unmount  detach the new volume; create a snapshot from it
 6. For the cluster you want to keep around (while it is terminated),
 edit persistent_data.yaml in it's bucket on S3 and replace the existing
 snap ID for the galaxyIndices with the snapshot ID you got in the previous
 step
 7. Start that cluster and you should have a file system from the new
 snapshot mounted.
 8. Terminate  delete the cluster you created in step 1

 If you don't want to have to do this the first time around on your
 custom cluster, you can first try it with another temporary cluster and
 make sure it all works as expected and then move on to the real cluster.

 Best,
 Enis


 Using m1.small/medium and getting rid of the 700GB would being my costs
 down to say $50 / month which is ok.


 Thanks !
 Greg E

Hi Mattias,

Posting to Galaxy-Dev, so others can see the question and response.

Is there anyone using SFTP in a local Galaxy installation? I read that
 FTP is insecure because it sends the data and user credentials in plaint
 text.


The short answer is yes.  See.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Galaxy Wiki

2012-02-01 Thread Dave Clements
Hi John, (and every potential wiki contributor, which on the dev list is
all of you :-)
**
I apologize for missing your question back in December (and for not
noticing it since, either).  Thanks to Jen for refreshing the thread.

   1. Thanks to your email, I have added your username and *107 others *to
   the Vetted Editors List (http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/VettedEditorGroup).
   2. *You (and 107 new friends!) will no longer have to answer
   textchas/captchas to update the wiki.*
   3. Now that we have 140 vetted users on the wiki, I hope to see a flood
   of helpful updates there.  :-)
   4. For anyone who does not have an account on the wiki, and wants to
   update content, please create an account, send the username to me, and I
   will add you to vetted list.

Again, I apologize for the delay.  And, I would like to thank you for
making me look at this.  I had no idea we had that many logins on the wiki.

Please let me know if you have any questions,

Dave C.


*Grinding Details, for those who care:
*
The Captcha questions are indeed darn irritating.  We investigated all
options currently available in MoinMoin, and unfortunately, they are the
best choice.  They also work very well at keeping out spam.  They also
apparently work very well at keeping out contributions.  Some numbers:

  198 Registered users on the wiki
32 of them were on the Vetted Editors List at the beginning of today
  108 of them were added to the Vetted Editors List today, as a result of
John's question.
58 of them are either blocked, known spammers, or I could not verify
who they were.

In the past, I have only added usernames to the Vetted Editor List, once
the user had successfully made an edit.  I am wondering if many of those
108 newly vetted users tried to update a page and were defeated by the
captchas?  In the future, I'll check the new user list, and update the
vetted list once a month.

 Hi John,

 I am going to put you in touch with our wiki guru, Dave. Hopefully you two
 will be able to work out some sort of solution. I believe there is a super
 secret list he can add you to that will made the question burden much
 lighter (i.e. none).

 But with all sincerity, we really do appreciate the help, and look forward
 to your contributions,

 Best,

 Jen
 Galaxy team

 Galaxy team-  I've tried a few times to add some content to the FAQ, but
 the captcha questions keep failing, or i'm submitting the wrong answer.
  I'd suggest a slightly less burdensome barrier to contributing- i'm
 certain this is dialing down your user contributions significantly.

 John

[galaxy-dev] Galaxy @ PAG 2012

2012-01-06 Thread Dave Clements
Hello all,

Plant and Animal Genome XX (PAG2012) starts in San Diego on January 14. If
you are attending PAG then you will have (at least) a half-dozen
opportunities to learn more about Galaxy and how it is being used to
support research. There will be workshops introducing Galaxy, and on
deploying Galaxy in the cloud, and talks and posters on using Galaxy and
several local Galaxy deployments.

See the Galaxy @ PAG2012 page (http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Events/PAG2012)
and the conference website (http://www.intlpag.org/) for more information.

Dannon Baker and Dave Clements from the Galaxy Team (
http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Galaxy%20Team) will also be there throughout the
meeting. Please feel free to ask us questions, or just introduce yourself.

Hope to see you in San Diego,

Dave Clements and Dannon Baker
