Eric - yeah - it should be straight forward to add these to workflow editor - it is just sort of a matter of how to represent this I think. I don't have any clues. I do!
Advanced settings -> "Enable tool ordering/dummy IO" -> has a checkbox When checked an extra input + output would appear at the bottom of the tool (ideally both at the same vertical height for a nice compact ordering selector). Could then connect just like regular IO.
The relevant commit is at:

This includes example workflows built up using YAML that establish these kinds of connections. This connections are what enabled Dan Blankenberg's work on workflows for data managers that he presented at the GCC 2015 and that he will post to Github within in a week or two of GCC 2015 ;).
More background on building up workflows from YAML can be found at https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/pull/1096 and https://github.com/galaxyproject/bioblend/pull/143.

The workflow subsystem has the ability to define a connection like this (just wait for one tool to pass before calling the next without a input/output relationship) but it hasn't been exposed in the workflow editor yet. That's incredibly exciting John. Can't wait for workflow availability of that feature. It was a huge problem for my tools when I was writing internal wrappers which did ordering dependent operations on external databases. Good to hear it's going to be possible. -John

Has anyone done a tool part of which simply takes in a data collection and provides it (symlinked) in a corresponding output data collection? We have a quality control tool that enables us to stop workflow, preventing subsequent jobs to be run if a problem has been detected. Currently our tool only sym-links through an individual dataset. It would be great if it could work on a whole data collection of any sort.
I see there’s a <collections> tag now – is there an easy solution using this – and that doesn’t loose metadata?
<collection name=“genericCollectionSymlink" label=“Workflow datasets”> <discover_datasets pattern=???????????? visible="true" ......................????????? </collection>
At moment we use parameters for format_source="workflow_files" metadata_source=“workflow_files” to pass through all the info on an input dataset...
<inputs> … <param name="workflow_files" type="data" optional="True" multiple=“False" label="Workflow data" help="Select dataset(s) that subsequent workflow stages can consume if report status is not fail'." /> </inputs> <outputs> <data name="workflow_files_pass" format_source="workflow_files" label="Workflow datasets" metadata_source="workflow_files” > <filter>(workflow_files)</filter> </data> </outputs>
Much obliged!
