Galaxy tool to find ORFs or simple CDSs
=======================================
This tool is copyright 2011-2013 by Peter Cock, The James Hutton Institute
(formerly SCRI, Scottish Crop Research Institute), UK. All rights reserved.
See the licence text below (MIT licence).
This tool is a short Python script (using Biopython library functions)
to search nucleotide sequences for open reading frames (ORFs) or coding
sequences (CDSs) where the first potential start codon is used. See the
help text in the XML file for more information.
This tool is available from the Galaxy Tool Shed at:
* http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/get_orfs_or_cdss
See also the EMBOSS tool ``getorf`` which offers similar functionality and
has also been wrapped for use within Galaxy.
Automated Installation
======================
This should be straightforward using the Galaxy Tool Shed, which should be
able to automatically install the dependency on Biopython, and then install
this tool and run its unit tests.
Manual Installation
===================
There are just two files to install to use this tool from within Galaxy:
* get_orfs_or_cdss.py (the Python script)
* get_orfs_or_cdss.xml (the Galaxy tool definition)
The suggested location is in a dedicated tools/get_orfs_or_cdss folder.
You will also need to modify the tools_conf.xml file to tell Galaxy to offer the
tool. One suggested location is in the filters section. Simply add the line::
You will also need to install Biopython 1.54 or later. If you want to run
the unit tests, include this line in tools_conf.xml.sample and the sample
FASTA files under the test-data directory. Then::
./run_functional_tests.sh -id get_orfs_or_cdss
That's it.

Developers
==========
This script and related tools were initially developed on the following hg branch:
http://bitbucket.org/peterjc/galaxy-central/src/tools
Development has now moved to a dedicated GitHub repository:
https://github.com/peterjc/pico_galaxy/tree/master/tools
For making the "Galaxy Tool Shed" http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/ tarball use
the following command from the Galaxy root folder::
$ tar -czf get_orfs_or_cdss.tar.gz tools/get_orfs_or_cdss/README.rst tools/get_orfs_or_cdss/get_orfs_or_cdss.* tools/get_orfs_or_cdss/tool_dependencies.xml test-data/get_orf_input*.fasta test-data/Ssuis.fasta
Check this worked::
