Re: [galaxy-dev] ENA SRA data retrieval with Cloudman

[Mohammad Heydarian]

Hi Dannon,
Thanks so much, your protocol was extremely helpful!

Thanks for looking into ENA SRA. In our experience, the ENA SRA is the
easiest and most reliable way of importing public NGS data into Galaxy. The
ENA SRA has an actual button to click that will import your data set of
choice into Galaxy, while retaining the data set ID. It is much more
straight forward (and reliable) than using any of the NCBI databases.

Thanks for your help with all of this, Dannon! Have a great night.

Cheers,

I'll check to make sure there wasn't a good reason to remove it (couldn't
find one in my first pass, and it's available on main, so it should be in
the cloud), but yes.

Is there a protocol (or help page) available for how to re-enable tools in

With everything headed to the toolshed, hopefully this is a thing of the
past very soon.  The only documentation I found on the wiki is here:
https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Tools/AddToolTutorial

In short, you'll need to:

1) ssh to your cloud galaxy instance
2) navigate to /mnt/galaxy/galaxy-app
3) open tool_conf.xml in your favorite editor, and add the line below,
exactly, in the Get Data section (the first one, begins on line 3):

 

4) Close down ssh,
5) In a web browser, go to the cloud admin panel and click restart for the
Galaxy service.

We definitely do try to make it as ready-to-go out of the box as possible,
but that's a great idea.  I'll try to document this better.

Anytime, thanks for your patience and for using Galaxy/Cloudman!

Re: [galaxy-dev] ENA SRA data retrieval with Cloudman

[Mohammad Heydarian]

Hi Dannon,
Thanks for this information. Will the ENA SRA button be enabled on the next
update of Cloudman?

Is there a protocol (or help page) available for how to re-enable tools in
the 'tool_conf.xml'? One of the great things about Galaxy Cloudman is that
someone who doesn't know programming (myself and many other biologists and
clinicians) can seamlessly use the platform. Unfortunately, when trivial
issues arise where the solution is to insert a line or two of code in the
universe of Galaxy Cloudman people like me are stymied and really don't
even know where to start. I know it requires work at some level, but a
tutorial on "how to find your 'tool_conf.xml'" (or "dummies guide to quick
Cloudman fixes") would likely be helpful to many end users (including
myself).

Thanks again, Dannon!

Hey Mo,
Sorry for the super delayed response here.  I can't find a decision to
remove it documented anywhere, so my guess is that this tool was
unintentionally removed when we last updated the volume.  It's actually
still available on disk, though, and can be re-enabled in your
tool_conf.xml by adding the following back to your Get Data section:
