So do you suggest we just replace res() with task() and it looks like
task() - get task result when we are in “publish”
task(task_name) - get task result from anywhere
?
Is that correct you mean we must always specify a task name? The reason I’d
like to have a simplified form (w/o task name) is that I see a lot of workflows
that we have to repeat task name in publish so that it just look too verbose to
me. Especially in case of very long task name.
Consider something like this:
tasks:
get_volumes_by_names:
with-items: name in <% $.vol_names %>
workflow: get_volume_by_name name=<% $.name %>
publish:
volumes: <% $.get_volumes_by_names %>
So in publish we have to repeat a task name, there’s no other way now. I’d like
to soften this requirement, but if you still want to use task names you’ll be
able to.

Not sure what you meant by "Publishing to global context”. Can you clarify
please?
