| upgrade_guide:upgrade-guide-v1-metadata-split | upgrade_guide | upgrade-guide-v1-metadata-split | Before Datasette 1.0, the metadata.yaml file became a kitchen sink if a mix of metadata, configuration, and settings. Now metadata.yaml is strictly for metaata (ex title and descriptions of database and tables, licensing info, etc). Other settings have been moved to a datasette.yml configuration file, described in Configuration . To start Datasette with both metadata and configuration files, run it like this: datasette --metadata metadata.yaml --config datasette.yaml # Or the shortened version: datasette -m metadata.yml -c datasette.yml | ["Upgrade guide", "Datasette 0.X -> 1.0", "Metadata changes"] | [] |
