That depends on when and how often you want to do something. In general you will want to override LinkingTool methods. Perhaps override LinkingTool | GoJS API ?

To cancel the operation of any tool, call Tool.doCancel() on the Diagram.currentTool.

@walter insertLink need to return a Link. Can you help me revise my code .

myDiagram.toolManager.linkingTool.insertLink=function(fromnode, fromport, tonode, toport){
console.log(fromnode);
return new $go.Link(){
fromNode:fromnode,
fromport:fromport,
tonode:tonode,
toport:toport
};
}

In overriding LinkingTool.insertLink I was expecting that you would call the base method, perhaps modifying LinkingTool.archetypeLinkData first, and then return what it returns.

It is impractical to create a Link that works well being a data bound and modeled. It is much easier either calling the base method or calling GraphLinksModel.copyLinkData and GraphLinksModel.addLinkData.
