Re: [galaxy-dev] bioblend run_workflow (no_wait?)
Thanks Dannon. Looking forward to the resolution. We've got some long
workflows (100+ steps) that take days to compute. It takes about 2
minutes to finish queuing tasks, and then I found that they continue
to execute even if I interrupt the bioblend thread. I'll add a
signal.alarm interrupt to kill the bioblend thread and continue manual
monitoring.

There is no reason workflow invocation *has* to be synchronous, but
that's
how galaxy works right now as, mostly, a historical artifact. Workflow
scheduling happens inside the web request, and other than bioblend issuing
the request in another thread there won't be an implementation w/ no_wait.
This is definitely suboptimal, and backgrounded (among other enhancements to
scheduling) workflow invocation is something we're working on right now, and
it's a high priority.
