We're still supporting the current dynamic_options functionality. This is a first pass and will be cleaned up as we continue to evolve more tools to use this new approach.
Within tool configs, SelectToolParameter types now include a <select_options> tag set. Several tools have been altered to use this new approach. Other tools we enhanced to
use the ColumnListParameter type.
They are somewhat independent (you can use the new layout with the old style
and vice versa) but they belong together.
Tested in Firefox, Safari, IE5.5, IE6, but there are still some features
to be implemented before this is ready for 'main'.
To use, first add "new_style_june_2007=true" to the app:universe section of
universe_wsgi.ini (this gives you the new layout). Second change document_root
to "%(here)s/static/june_2007_style/blue" in the app:static_style section.
Style Features: simplifications, fewer 'hatched' images, space savings in some
places, small changes to the color scheme (same general feel, but the colors
are better matched). Main changes are to history, the new style support nested
datasets much better.
Layout features: no framesets (just iframes, some of which can be replaced with divs and ajax down the road). Frames are resizable and hideable. Tools can provide width hints and history will automatically hide (try UCSC main to see this).
Fixed a bug in the unit test for new gff version 3 format in sniff.py.
Tweaked the biomart tool so that it will not display problm Info: text in history.
This commit includes some stuff for future GBrowse integration, but nothing included should pose any problems with the current environment.
Datatypes are defined like:
[galaxy:datatypes]
bed = galaxy.datatypes.interval:Bed
png = galaxy.datatypes.images:Image,image/png
where the mime-type (default of text/plain) can be declared after the class name, as is seen with png.
Database changes required:
alter table history add genome_build varchar(40);
There is now a new tool ToolParameter named GenomeBuildParameter which should be useful in several existing tools.
Also took care of some other miscellaneous items.
Biomart doesn't work on the trunk yet (Before or after this commit).
axt to lav tool won't be functional until multiple datasets per history item is available on trunk - although I could
make it so that only the lav file is generated and no fasta files, in which case it wouldn't be an issue.
