Hello,
When importing BioMart data from galaxy, the format is always "text".
In the
"Results" page in BioMart where it says "Export al results to Galaxy,
the
only available format is "TSV".
Export all results to Galaxy HTMLCSVTSVXLS Unique results only
Should this not make the data imported to galaxy to be "tabular"? With
the
default "text" format, I cannot view the data within galaxy, I have to
download it first then open in an editor. Only when the I change the
data
type to "tabular" do I get to view the data within galaxy. I
downloaded
same data as both "text" formatted and "tabular" formatted and there
are no
differences between the files.
It would be better if galaxy could automatically change the datatype
to
"tabular" when getting data from biomart.
When sequences are imported, perhaps galaxy can detect it as such and
apply
the "fasta" format. Biomart always exports sequences in fasta format
but in
galaxy this also comes out as text.
Thanks.
