Hello David,
This is not currently possible, but will be available in the next Galaxy
distribution release, currently scheduled for about 10 days from now. You will
include a tool_dependencies.xml file in your tool shed repository that looks
something like the following.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<tool_dependency>
<set_environment version="1.0">
<environment_variable name="JAVA_JAR_PATH"
action="set_to">$INSTALL_DIR</environment_variable>
</set_environment>
</tool_dependency>
Your tool will find the required files via the defined JAVA_JAR_PATH by using a
<requirements> tag set in the tool config, something like this:
<requirements>
<requirement type="set_environment">JAVA_JAR_PATH </requirement>
</requirements>
The <command> tag in the tool config would be something like this:
<command interpreter="python">
python_wrapper.py $JAVA_JAR_PATH/some_file.jar $param1 $param2...
</command>
I'm close to having this working, so if you are interested in testing before
the next Galaxy dist release, let me know and I'll tell you when the Galaxy
central repository has the new feature.
Thanks!
Greg Von Kuster
