Any time you run Datasette you can optionally include a\n YAML or JSON file with metadata about your databases and tables. Datasette will then\n display that information in the web UI. \n Run Datasette like this: \n datasette database1.db database2.db --metadata metadata.yaml \n Your metadata.yaml file can look something like this: \n [[[cog\nfrom metadata_doc import metadata_example\nmetadata_example(cog, {\n \"title\": \"Custom title for your index page\",\n \"description\": \"Some description text can go here\",\n \"license\": \"ODbL\",\n \"license_url\": \"https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/\",\n \"source\": \"Original Data Source\",\n \"source_url\": \"http://example.com/\"\n}) \n ]]] \n [[[end]]] \n Choosing YAML over JSON adds support for multi-line strings and comments. \n The above metadata will be displayed on the index page of your Datasette-powered\n site. The source and license information will also be included in the footer of\n every page served by Datasette. \n Any special HTML characters in description will be escaped. If you want to\n include HTML in your description, you can use a description_html property\n instead.", "breadcrumbs": "[]", "references": "[]"}
