This as a library? about ansible-galaxy-tools HOT 3 CLOSED

Well, from the feedback so far on the mailing list and github, I'd say people trying to use the tool installation functionality struggle with ansible, so from that perspective option 2 and 3 provide a clear path of improvement.

I think I'd go with option 3, since you're doing an awesome job with planemo ;).
We could easily adopt planemo in this role, if for example there was a command

planemo shed_install <tool_list.yml>

I think the galaxy ecosystem is already quite complex, so having an all around planemo tool/workflow sdk makes more sense to me as compared to having another package for getting your tool list installed.

Ideally this would be galaxy tool_install <tool_list.yml>, right? Not that Galaxy needs a CLI but Galaxy should know (and provide interface to) how to install a list of tools.

IOW Admin API should contain an endpoint that accept yaml/json list of tools and installs them all. Is that naive?

👍 for option 2. I always felt that package on pypi/conda would be great and the easiest way for many users. This role can simply install this package.
