Please add a new STR detection (for short read, reference, and mapped data) tool at the UseGalaxy.eu, thanks!
Hi @libinglin
Did you fix your reference fasta and quality filter the SAM already, and it still failed at UseGalaxy.org? I would be curious about reviewing that new job as a benchmark. Maybe we can increase the memory resources. You can send in a new bug report for it ā put the URL link to this topic in the comments section, then let us know back here once done and Iāll look for it. Or, post the history share link here please. Either is fine for this one.
If I am mixing up who asked about that already, apologies! We can still follow up with your current problem. 
And, we can ask the EU team about this. I donāt see any tools from the STR-FM: Microsatellite Analysis tool group hosted there, which seems a bit odd but might be on purpose, or might be an oversight. ping @wm75 can you help? Am I missing something? Thanks!
I find the Show-Coords tool is running fine! ļ¼The first route is working fineļ¼
Iām running my workflow and Iām getting an error with STR-FM (the second route), I canāt find the STR detection tool in the Europe platform.
I used two servers separated for analysis and then combined them manually. This is too much of a hassle, thanks!
Possibly not enough running memory of Show-Coords tool in the U.S. platform

Hi @libinglin
This is a different tool, and is hosted at UseGalaxy.eu. Direct link ā Galaxy
Correct. I reviewed this one too already. Try at the EU server to see if the data can be processed.
Only run half of my workflow (needs to be split).

Ok, I re-read. You want to run both tools.
Show-Coords
- tool_id toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/repos/iuc/mummer_show_coords/mummer_show_coords/4.0.0rc1+galaxy3
- runs at UseGalaxy.eu
- is pending more memory allocation (if possible!) at UseGalaxy.org Increase memory allocation for mummer_show_coords at ORG Ā· Issue #747 Ā· galaxyproject/usegalaxy-tools Ā· GitHub
STR detection
- tool_id toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/repos/arkarachai-fungtammasan/str_fm/microsatellite/1.0.0
- not available at UseGalaxy.eu (we are checking why)
- not sure if it runs at UseGalaxy.org, plus would involve splitting the workflow between two servers (not a great solution)
Letās see what the EU has to say about the tool install. Because of time differences, this will likely take a day or two for feedback, then maybe longer for the actual installation.
You could split the workflow. Run through the steps up through needing this tool at the ORG server, export the history to the other, then run the second part. Meaning, you donāt need to map twice. Or, you can wait for feedback.
Yes, I want one platform( UseGalaxy.eu or UseGalaxy.org) where I can run all tools of this workflow, thanks!
When we set up the workflow, the STR detection is running fine at UseGalaxy.org, and all analysis tools.
So the STR_FM suite of tools hasnāt been updated since 7 years and has accumulated several problems over this time, which make it hard now to install it on a Galaxy server. For example, the tool doesnāt specify requirements, but still depends on Python2 (which is unsupported since a while), instead of Python3.
In general, we are not opposed to making things possible for our users on Galaxy Europe, but are you sure there isnāt a better workflow for what you are trying to achieve, than one composed of tools (mummer is also not exactly new) from many years ago?

Maybe the original author of STR_FM can give some recommendations if youāre asking at GitHub - Arkarachai/STR-FM?
Also @marten, it seems you have been involved many years ago in bringing the suite to usegalaxy.org - maybe you can comment on this?
such as the STRait Razorļ¼
We build the analysis workflow for my job on the Galaxy (website), and we found the āSTR decationā and āNucmerā tool at the UseGalaxy.org. Currently we have not found any other replaceable analysis tools on the platform, e.g. STRait Razor, STRinNGS v2.0ā¦ And the other tools were not tested. Thanks!
Iām personally not an expert in microsatellite analysis. If you can provide us with a list of tools youād want to see in Galaxy to build your ideal workflow (along with an outline of what that workflow would look like) thatād be a starting point and we can see what it takes to bring them to the platform.
Iām sorry. Iām actually a user based on the available tools. I will read this paper to find better analysis software. Thanks!
I assume we could update the str_fm wrapper to require python 2.7 and things would work as they were?
I donāt know the toolshed repo bundles lots of wrappers that donāt declare requirements. Havenāt checked whether all of them would work with Python as their only dependency.
