Re: [galaxy-dev] Setting the output label based on input parameters?

2012-02-27 Thread Ann Black-Ziegelbein
We are also feeling the hurt of not being able to carry the input 
dataset names through a complex workflow.  We are also very interested 
in a solution similar to what Dave Walton has proposed,.  Dave, would it 
be possible to receive a copy of your modified code? Does it work when 
there are multiple inputs?  Ideally we would keep the names of datasets 
that are run through complex workflows the same as the workflow 
progresses.  Sample mix-ups are a common scare, and with the current 
default naming it is not far fetched to see someone accidentally 
associating the end result with a different sample number.


Thanks much,

Ann

Re: [galaxy-dev] Setting the output label based on input parameters?

2011-09-15 Thread Ross
on_string seems to be defined for datatool parameters only.

There's a common idiom for looking up fields from the relevant .loc
files for things like all_fasta - it's not pretty but it does work -
eg from the bowtie wrapper:

 --ref=${ filter( lambda x: str( x[0] ) == str(
$refGenomeSource.index ), $__app__.tool_data_tables[ 'bowtie_indexes'
].get_fields() )[0][-1] }

As you can see, it will pass the last column from the relevant row of
the loc file pointed at by the tool_data_table.xml entry for
bowtie_indexes_color
To get a name instead of a path, you could replace the column selector
with (eg) 2 if that's the column you want from the .loc file?

It's complex but do-able - I hope this helps...

 While ${on_string} works well for items in the history, I found that for a
 dataset in a data table, for example in the 'all_fasta' table, the content
 of ${on_string} is the null string.
 Is that expected? Is there a better to get the name or some sort of
 identifier of the dataset?
 Thank you,

 In brief, here's what I did:

 The change is totally isolated to lib/galaxy/jobs/actions/post.py in the
 RenameDatasetAction.execute method.

 I have introduced syntax similar to the ${variable} syntax that is used
 for
 creating workflow variables.

 In my case the syntax is as follows:
 #{inputs_file_variable | option 1 | option n}
 where:
     input_file_variable = is the name of a module input variable
     |  = the delimiter for added options. Optional if no options.
     options = basename, upper, lower
     basename = keep all of the file name except the extension
                (everything before the final .)
     upper = force the file name to upper case
     lower = force the file name to lower case
  suggested additions:
     replace option so you can replace a portion of the name,
     support multiple #{name} in one rename action...

 The choice of the character # instead of $ was relatively
 arbitrary...
 It was that or ! actually.

 So an example might be:
 I have a workflow with an Input Dataset and a FASTQ Groomer.
 In the FASTQ Groomer I select Rename Dataset output_file and then in
 the
 New output name: field I might type:
 #{input_file | basename | upper}.fastqsanger

 Assume the original input file name to the Input Dataset was
 s_1_1_PWDxNOD.txt
 The variable in the FastQ Groomer module for that file is input_file.
 When I run the workflow, the resulting output file from the groomer
 would be
 S_1_1_PWDXNOD.fastqsanger

 A much simpler example might just be #{input_file}.fastqsanger.  This
 is
 perfectly legal syntax, but the downside is if you have a lengthy
 workflow
 and you are continually appending new extentions, you could end up with
 something like s_1_1_PWDxNOD.fastqsanger.bam.gex.tab.

 Like the first of the two suggested additions I mention above, I could
 see
 you deciding to add more possible operations in addition to basename,
 upper,
 lower and replace.

 The concept of the markup I used for adding the operations was taken
 from
 Liquid markup
 (https://github.com/tobi/liquid/wiki/liquid-for-designers).

 I welcome any feedback and am more than happy to share the code back to
 the

It looks like the Cheetah syntax only is parsed within the command

basically changed the string values of truevalue and falsevalue within the
parameter to be an English sentence that would become the label for the

param name=filter_reads type=boolean truevalue=Filtered Reads Fasta
falsevalue=Unfiltered Reads Fasta label=Filter reads?/

Hi all,

Is there a way to set the label of the output based on the input
parameters?  Perhaps by using the action tag?  Basically, I want the
output label to be different if the user sets a particular parameter to be
true.

Re: [galaxy-dev] Setting the output label based on input parameters?

2011-08-25 Thread Nikhil Joshi
It's actually a boolean checkbox. so I basically want the label to
change based upon whether or not the checkbox is checked.  Is there any way
to do that?  Again, I've tried using the Cheetah syntax to do the #if #end
inside the output tags but that didn't work.

- Nik.

 I meant to say label=${input} or label=${input.value}.

 If it's a select field then you can change the option values to the text
 you want to add to your output label.

  Hi Nikhil,

 The tool templates are Cheetah templates, so you can do things like:

 outputs
 %if param == True:
   data format=txt name=blah label=Label1 /
 %else
  data format=txt name=blah label=Label2 /
 %endif
 /outputs

 Thanks,

 K
