Hi Lincoln

I noticed for the GBrowse clients that I've seen online that the option of a user adding a DAS track is not available, only the GBrowse provider can do so in the config? For the new GBrowse is there a plan/chance that it will use the registry and/or allow people to specify a url directly?

There is some registry code available now that is written purely in javascript that would make interacting with the registry very easy to add.

No, it will be a while before this version is up on a live site.

That's great Lincoln.

I don't suppose there's an updated server up somewhere that I could test
against?

Thanks,

            Thomas.

Thanks for the pointers. I've added CORS capabilities to the GBrowse DAS
server.

Thanks Andy and Jonathan,

The CORS header is already in MyDAS and it will be available for the
next
release, which will be soon :)
I will check the specification about Access-Control-Expose-Headers

Jonathan, I am checking the response headers with an add-on in Firefox.
I
tried the first URL in the dasregistry link you send me, i.e.
http://cathdb.info:9000/das/cath_pdb/features?segment=5pti
but I do not see the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header there. So I am
not
sure what I missing...

You can check the headers responses for any of their valid responses.

If you want some java code that adds this functionality to MyDAS I
can
send it to you...

About CORS,

If you run your own DAS servers and
don't list them in the registry, you'll need to check for CORS
compatibility
yourself. The latest versions of Proserver and Dazzle should both
be
okay.

If I am not mistaken, Proserver already implements CORS headers?
Andy, could you please send me a link of a Proserver server that
implements this?

Thanks,

Leyla

This is very cool - I had a look the other day. Was wondering why
some
sources could be attached and some can't....
Best browser experience yet by far I'd say.

No problems about adding CORS support - for the record I'm very
happy
to implement new capabilities testing and other suggestions to the
registry
from anyone who cares to drop me a line. Especially if it's going to
enhance
and promote the use of the registry :)

As some of you already know, I've been experimenting recently with
a
web-based DAS client for genomic data.  It's still in
a unashamedly prototypical state (in particular, some of the popups
and
configuration stuff is outright clunky, and we know it!), but we're
starting
to find it quite useful, and would be interested to receive more
feedback.
So if you're curious, you can try it here:

          http://www.biodalliance.org/human/ncbi36/

It's a fully-fledged DAS/1.53 client (with a few bits of DAS/ 1.6,
and
hopefully rather more coming soon), but has one major caveat: since
it's
pure Javascript code running in your web browser, there are
limitations to
which servers it can connect to. Specifically, it will only work
with
DAS
servers that implement the W3C cross-origin resource sharing model
(which
has been discussed on this list before, but drop me a line if
you've
got any
questions). What does this mean in practice? If you're adding
datasources
from the registry, things are simple because Dalliance will only
allow
you
to add CORS-enabled sources (a huge thanks to Jonathan Warren for
adding
some support for this in the registry). If you run your own DAS
servers and
don't list them in the registry, you'll need to check for CORS
compatibility
yourself. The latest versions of Proserver and Dazzle should both
be
okay.

All comments, suggestions, and bug reports are welcome!
