uploading collections through API

[najitaleb]

Hello. I am in the process of attempting to create a dataset collection through the galaxy API but I am running into an issue. The YAML file I am using as the target for fetch_to_library.py is here https://gist.github.com/najitaleb/5bba05a27041b109136a6cde2b79808b

When I run it with this YAML file, an empty collection is created in my history and the datasets are added separately. I have attached a picture of my history in this post.

After looking through the bioblend and galaxy API documentation, I came across the create_dataset_collection in the bioblend documentation here on page 29 https://media.readthedocs.org/pdf/bioblend/latest/bioblend.pdf

Am I supposed to include element identifiers as well? Or maybe something else is missing? I'm not sure where I can really find documentation of all the parameters that can be used, and I'm not really sure what the issue is with my YAML file. Thanks.

I found the issue. It was the names and descriptions that are used for libraries. Once those are removed, it is able to create a collection in the history. Here is my fixed yaml file https://gist.github.com/najitaleb/08e1c7b9c1d09cd1f7e20403ee3fe218
