Thanks @martenson. @jmchilton I'm assuming code for this will need to be added to bioblend for it can be used in planemo?

[jmchilton]

Good plan! I don't know if I can get to it before the release (there are a lot of bugs left) - but ping after please if I forget - or PR's to bioblend welcome :).

[hexylena]

Ok, I'll have some time tomorrow for making those PRs, I'll see what I can get done. It's significantly of interest to me to automate that portion.

How should we handle this in shed.yml? Simply adding

• synopsis
• description
• type: one out of three?
• remote_repository_url
• homepage_url
• category_ids []

Category list will fail silently if the category does not exists?

[hexylena]

I was going to use category titles rather than IDs and yes, print a warning
if the category doesn't exist.

Will need to add code to handle updating that information if it gets
changed over time
