writing_plugins:writing-plugins-static-assets,writing_plugins,writing-plugins-static-assets,Static assets,"If your plugin has a  static/  directory, Datasette will automatically configure itself to serve those static assets from the following path: 
             /-/static-plugins/NAME_OF_PLUGIN_PACKAGE/yourfile.js 
             Use the  datasette.urls.static_plugins(plugin_name, path)  method to generate URLs to that asset that take the  base_url  setting into account, see  datasette.urls . 
             To bundle the static assets for a plugin in the package that you publish to PyPI, add the following to the plugin's  setup.py : 
             package_data = (
    {
        ""datasette_plugin_name"": [
            ""static/plugin.js"",
        ],
    },
) 
             Where  datasette_plugin_name  is the name of the plugin package (note that it uses underscores, not hyphens) and  static/plugin.js  is the path within that package to the static file. 
             datasette-cluster-map  is a useful example of a plugin that includes packaged static assets in this way.","[""Writing plugins""]","[{""href"": ""https://github.com/simonw/datasette-cluster-map"", ""label"": ""datasette-cluster-map""}]"
