Request to add ITSX to the main Galaxy instance

Question: Request to add ITSX to the main Galaxy instance

8 weeks ago by

Dear Galaxy folks,

I need to analyze some fungal ITS metagenomic community data. Can the ITS Extractor tool (ITSX) be added to the main Galaxy instance? I see two versions of this tool in the tool shed (URIs below)

https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/aafc-mbb/itsx/57e76d405a97

https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/okorol/itsx/3610c6312b85

Inclusion of this tool would enable me (and I imagine others, also) to more appropriately handle fungal ITS metagenomic data on Galaxy. See an article on this topic at the URI below.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely,

Matt

Hello,

There are no active plans for adding these tools to the public Galaxy Main server https://usegalaxy.org and these are not installed at other usegalaxy.* server. You might also check to see if another public Galaxt hosts them. Or, you could add the tools to your own Galaxy.

These tool wrappers are a few years older, do not use the newest dependency methods (conda/bioconda packages), and probably need an update. So, if you have problems installing or running them, contact the repository owner or lab to let them know. They may also have feedback about future development plans.

Thanks, Jen, Galaxy team

Thank you, Jen!

For now I will see about running this part of my analyses outside of Galaxy.

Sincerely,

Matt
