How to become Admin in Docker Galaxy

[nlin0907]

Hi everyone,

I am very new to Galaxy. I recently installed Galaxy through Docker (reference:https://www.researchgate.net/publication/338670897_A_tool_suite_for_CNV_analysis_from_exome_sequencing_data_in_Galaxy)

docker pull medda/cnvs_suite
This will install a complete Galaxy server, the CNV detection tools and all the required dependencies
docker run --name galaxy_cnv -d -p 8080:80 medda/cnvs_suite

I see that I need to become an admin to install tools like ExomeDepth and cnvMOPS. How do I access the galaxy.yml from Docker to add my email as an admin?

usually the container will have a default admin account preconfigured. Check with that images documentation. You may also have to set an environment variable that configures the admins for the container.

How can I see the images documentation or environment that is in Galaxy or in the Docker? I’ve never done something like this before so I’m not sure where to start

medda/cnvs_suite

Going to docker hub and looking up the image gave the url to the repository.
This image is based off bgruenings image: https://github.com/medda/cnvs_suite/blob/37b75137b4b793da0cf2d449c22f5718719c4202/Dockerfile#L1

See the documentation for that image: GitHub - bgruening/docker-galaxy-stable: 🐳📊📚 Docker Images tracking the stable Galaxy releases.

is just more easy, login with:
user: admin
password: admin

@gmauro
thank you for the link, but I’m still having some trouble understanding what I should do. The following screenshot is the only thing vaguely similar to what you showed me above. However, I can’t edit it.
Also, by logging in with user: admin and password: admin, does it save my history?
