[galaxy-dev] Adding options to a tool

2015-02-11 Thread Scott Szakonyi
Hello all,

I am a new Galaxy admin/developer, so if this is as stupid question please
be kind.

I am trying to add the ability for a user to choose additional parameters
for Tophat for Illumina. After analyzing the Python and XML files
in /galaxy-dist/tools/ngs_rna, I came to the conclusion that modifying
these files would give me the desired results. However, no changes that I
make to these files seem to have any effect whatsoever on the user
experience inside the Galaxy server. I can not find any other likely
candidates inside galaxy-dist.

Am I looking in the wrong place? Is it even possible to add parameters to a
tool interface?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Hello Scott,

the tool named 'tophat' has been migrated out of distribution to the Tool
Shed over a year ago. Which means that if it is in your Galaxy and your
Galaxy is newer than a year it must have been installed from the Tool Shed.
Tool Shed acts like an app store for Galaxy Tools.
The tophat tool is hosted here:
https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/devteam/tophat
and developed here:
https://github.com/galaxyproject/tools-devteam/tree/master/tools/tophat

However the first thing I would check is whether the newer version of the
tool (named tophat2) that we recently updated would suit your needs. You
can try it on our Test instance here:
https://test.galaxyproject.org/root?tool_id=toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/repos/devteam/tophat2/tophat2/0.7

Please let me know if you have any questions and thank you for using Galaxy.

Martin, Galaxy Team

Hi Scott

and just double checking, in case you do have an 'old' Galaxy installation:

after modifying the xml file  (I assume you are talking about 
tophat_wrapper.xml?):  Have you re-loaded the tool?


click on 'Reload a tool's configuration' on the administration menu and 
select the tool
