Hi Dannon,

Thanks for your reply. I've found a workaround by using the method 
Binary.register_sniffable_binary_format() . I discovered this workaround in a 
previous thread by John Chilton.

Attached the complete solution, just for the record.

Regards,

Pieter.

Subject: Re: [galaxy-dev] Supporting file sets for running a tool with multiple 
input files

Hi Pieter,

We've worked out what we think is the right way to solve this for Galaxy and 
expect work to start soon.  See the trello card 
(https://trello.com/c/325AXIEr/613-tools-dataset-collections) for more details.

For your particular tool, the first workaround that comes to mind would be 
adding a new datatype, say, ZippedInputFiles in your toolshed repository that 
gets included and used by users, though I haven't actually tried that.  That 
said, I'd probably wait, this feature is high on our list of things to do next.

Hi,

Is there any news regarding support for the following scenario in Galaxy:

-      User has N files which he would like to process with a Galaxy tool using 
the same parameters

-      User uploads a (.tar or .zip ?) file to Galaxy and selects this as the 
input file for the tool

-      Tool produces an output .zip file with the N result files

I know Galaxy-P had a workaround for this some time ago. But has this been 
solved in the main Galaxy code base?
Or are there any feasible workarounds that I can add to my Toolshed package to 
ensure my .zip file does not get unzipped at upload (default Galaxy behaviour)?

Thanks and regards,
