Re: [Myexperiment-discuss] Index MyExperiment Workflow + Feature Request for myExperiment/BioCatalogue

[M. Scott Marshall]

Hello All,

Just to let you know what Edgar is up to: We would like to include a 
demo of using the index generated by Edgar's workflow to find the 
workflow itself (sorry, irresistable recursion :) ) for this course:
https://wiki.nbic.nl/index.php/BioWiseInformationManagement2009

Last I checked, Edgar had to pull down several pages in an iteration. We 
weren't sure about how to do that so Edgar was hacking something 
together yesterday eve. Advice on the best approach to this in Taverna 
would be appreciated.

But WAIT! there's more: A general feature request! :)

While creating such indexes (also for BioCatalogue), it would be handy 
to have an API for each service/workflow that provides a list of 
(online) associated text resources and the MIME type of each one (txt, 
pdf, doc, etc.). This would make it possible to build indexes from the 
associated text resources in a generic fashion with much less hacking! 
I've hinted to Jits about this before but just never get around to a 
decent write up. Maybe we could work something like that in dialogue..

Cheers,
Scott
