usegalaxy.* tools Build Status Build Status

Originally this repository was solely for the use of usegalaxy.eu, but we are looking at expanding that to the other usegalaxy.* instances. Some documentation may be outdated while we figure out the new policies and procedures.

Currently only UseGalaxy.eu is installing tools from this repository.

All installed tools are also listed on our webpage.

Usage

With ephemeris installed, you can use our tool defintions easily:

make tools_iuc.yaml.lock.install GALAXY_SERVER_URL=https://... GALAXY_API_KEY=...

Setup

  • yaml files are manually curated
  • yaml.lock files are automatically generated
  • Only IUC tools are automatically updated with the latest version each week

Requesting Tools in UseGalaxy.*

Policies are not set in stone and we would be happy to seek feedback and discussions. Currenty, we encourage everyone to submit tools via PRs to this repo. The tools are losely grouped into several categories based on the yaml files. Please make your changes in the appropriate file and avoid creating a new yaml file unless necessary.

However, we promise a high-quality service to our users and we need to ensure sustainability of the installed tools. That means that tools are regularly updated, tested and can be adjusted to new developments. Therefore, we encourage everyone to follow the IUC Guidelines for tool development and have automatic testing enabled via CI.

We encourage you to submit your tool to one of the larger community repositories, like

These repositories have planemo CI testing enabled and have a larger communities in place that help you with maintaining the tools.
