changelog:secret-plugin-configuration-options,changelog,secret-plugin-configuration-options,Secret plugin configuration options,"Plugins like  datasette-auth-github  need a safe way to set secret configuration options. Since the default mechanism for configuring plugins exposes those settings in  /-/metadata  a new mechanism was needed.  Secret configuration values  describes how plugins can now specify that their settings should be read from a file or an environment variable: 
                 {
    ""plugins"": {
        ""datasette-auth-github"": {
            ""client_secret"": {
                ""$env"": ""GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET""
            }
        }
    }
} 
                 These plugin secrets can be set directly using  datasette publish . See  Custom metadata and plugins  for details.
