                         Label columns detected for foreign keys are now case-insensitive, so  Name  or  TITLE  will be detected in the same way as  name  or  title . ( #1544 )

changelog:plugins-and-internals,changelog,plugins-and-internals,Plugins and internals,"New plugin hook:  filters_from_request(request, database, table, datasette) , which runs on the table page and can be used to support new custom query string parameters that modify the SQL query. ( #473 ) 
                     
                     
                         Added two additional methods for writing to the database:  await db.execute_write_script(sql, block=True)  and  await db.execute_write_many(sql, params_seq, block=True) . ( #1570 ) 
                     
                     
                         The  db.execute_write()  internal method now defaults to blocking until the write operation has completed. Previously it defaulted to queuing the write and then continuing to run code while the write was in the queue. ( #1579 ) 
                     
                     
                         Database write connections now execute the  prepare_connection(conn, database, datasette)  plugin hook. ( #1564 ) 
                     
                     
                         The  Datasette()  constructor no longer requires the  files=  argument, and is now documented at  Datasette class . ( #1563 ) 
                     
                     
                         The tracing feature now traces write queries, not just read queries. ( #1568 ) 
                     
                     
                         The query string variables exposed by  request.args  will now include blank strings for arguments such as  foo  in  ?foo=&bar=1  rather than ignoring those parameters entirely.
