Hello,

I am writing custom tool for Galaxy that uses perl scripts. These perl scripts use specific perl modules and therefore I need to make sure that those perl modules are installed.

What is the recommended way to install perl modules from tool_dependencies.xml?

I have found following code that installs modules from test toolshed:

https://github.com/bgruening/galaxytools/blob/master/test_repositories/setup_perl_environment/tool_dependencies.xml

I haven't found equivalent for main toolshed so far. If I stick to test toolshed, is this the recommended way or is there any other way how to easily install perl modules for custom tools in toolshed?

Thank you.

Hi Monika,

yes I would recommend this solution, but there are not so many users of this approach. But I will try to assist you to get it running. The main advantage with this approach is that you can depend on your own perl version. Independently of the system perl version. I will migrate the perl package and bioperl to the main toolshed today.

Ciao,

Bjoern

Hi Bjoern,

I'm trying to do the same. I've created a tool that needs 'LWP::UserAgent', 'XML::Twig' and 'FileHandle' perl modules. I've found your package on github and on tool_shed and I want to know how to use it so my tools works correctly.

 

Thanks

Hello Mateus please create a new question instead of using this one. That keeps it clean for the others to use.
