changelog:id64 | changelog | id64 | 0.41 (2020-05-06) | You can now create custom pages within your Datasette instance using a custom template file. For example, adding a template file called templates/pages/about.html will result in a new page being served at /about on your instance. See the custom pages documentation for full details, including how to return custom HTTP headers, redirects and status codes. ( #648 ) Configuration directory mode ( #731 ) allows you to define a custom Datasette instance as a directory. So instead of running the following: datasette one.db two.db \ --metadata=metadata.json \ --template-dir=templates/ \ --plugins-dir=plugins \ --static css:css You can instead arrange your files in a single directory called my-project and run this: datasette my-project/ Also in this release: New NOT LIKE table filter: ?colname__notlike=expression . ( #750 ) Datasette now has a pattern portfolio at /-/patterns - e.g. https://latest.datasette.io/-/patterns . This is a page that shows every Datasette user interface component in one place, to aid core development and people building custom CSS themes. ( #151 ) SQLite PRAGMA functions such as pragma_table_info(tablename) are now allowed in Datasette SQL queries. ( #761 ) Datasette pages now consistently return a content-type of text/html; charset=utf-8" . ( #752 ) Datasette now handles an ASGI raw_path value of None , which should allow compatibility with the Mangum adapter for running ASGI apps on AWS Lambda. Thanks, Colin Dellow.

changelog:v1-0-a1 | changelog | v1-0-a1 | 1.0a1 (2022-12-01) | Write APIs now serve correct CORS headers if Datasette is started in --cors mode. See the full list of CORS headers in the documentation. ( #1922 ) Fixed a bug where the _memory database could be written to even though writes were not persisted. ( #1917 ) The https://latest.datasette.io/ demo instance now includes an ephemeral database which can be used to test Datasette's write APIs, using the new datasette-ephemeral-tables plugin to drop any created tables after five minutes. This database is only available if you sign in as the root user using the link on the homepage. ( #1915 ) Fixed a bug where hitting the write endpoints with a GET request returned a 500 error. It now returns a 405 (method not allowed) error instead. ( #1916 ) The list of endpoints in the API explorer now lists mutable databases first. ( #1918 ) The "ignore": true and "replace": true options for the insert API are now documented .

changelog:v1-0-a5 | changelog | v1-0-a5 | 1.0a5 (2023-08-29) | When restrictions are applied to API tokens , those restrictions now behave slightly differently: applying the view-table restriction will imply the ability to view-database for the database containing that table, and both view-table and view-database will imply view-instance . Previously you needed to create a token with restrictions that explicitly listed view-instance and view-database and view-table in order to view a table without getting a permission denied error. ( #2102 ) New datasette.yaml (or .json ) configuration file, which can be specified using datasette -c path-to-file . The goal here to consolidate settings, plugin configuration, permissions, canned queries, and other Datasette configuration into a single single file, separate from metadata.yaml . The legacy settings.json config file used for Configuration directory mode has been removed, and datasette.yaml has a "settings" section where the same settings key/value pairs can be included. In the next future alpha release, more configuration such as plugins/permissions/canned queries will be moved to the datasette.yaml file. See #2093 for more details. Thanks, Alex Garcia. The -s/--setting option can now take dotted paths to nested settings. These will then be used to set or over-ride the same options as are present in the new configuration file. ( #2156 ) New --actor '{"id": "json-goes-here"}' option for use with datasette --get to treat the simulated request as being made by a specific actor, see datasette --get . ( #2153 ) The Datasette _internal database has had some changes. It no longer shows up in the datasette.databases list by default, and is now instead available to plugins using the datasette.get_internal_database() . Plugins are invited to use this as a private data… | ["Changelog"] | [{"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2102", "label": "#2102"}, {"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2093", "label": "#2093"}, {"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2156", "label": "#2156"}, {"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2153", "label": "#2153"}, {"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2157", "label": "#2157"}] |
changelog:id212 | changelog | id212 | 0.8 (2017-11-13) | V0.8 - added PyPI metadata, ready to ship. Implemented offset/limit pagination for views ( #70 ). Improved pagination. ( #78 ) Limit on max rows returned, controlled by --max_returned_rows option. ( #69 ) If someone executes 'select * from table' against a table with a million rows in it, we could run into problems: just serializing that much data as JSON is likely to lock up the server. Solution: we now have a hard limit on the maximum number of rows that can be returned by a query. If that limit is exceeded, the server will return a "truncated": true field in the JSON. This limit can be optionally controlled by the new --max_returned_rows option. Setting that option to 0 disables the limit entirely. | ["Changelog"] | [{"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/70", "label": "#70"}, {"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/78", "label": "#78"}, {"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/69", "label": "#69"}] |

changelog:id152 | changelog | id152 | 0.18 (2018-04-14) | This release introduces support for units , contributed by Russ Garrett ( #203 ). You can now optionally specify the units for specific columns using metadata.json . Once specified, units will be displayed in the HTML view of your table. They also become available for use in filters - if a column is configured with a unit of distance, you can request all rows where that column is less than 50 meters or more than 20 feet for example. Link foreign keys which don't have labels. [Russ Garrett] This renders unlabeled FKs as simple links. Also includes bonus fixes for two minor issues: In foreign key link hrefs the primary key was escaped using HTML escaping rather than URL escaping. This broke some non-integer PKs. Print tracebacks to console when handling 500 errors. Fix SQLite error when loading rows with no incoming FKs. [Russ Garrett] This fixes an error caused by an invalid query when loading incoming FKs. The error was ignored due to async but it still got printed to the console. Allow custom units to be registered with Pint. [Russ Garrett] Support units in filters.

changelog:id43 | changelog | id43 | 0.52 (2020-11-28) | This release includes a number of changes relating to an internal rebranding effort: Datasette's configuration mechanism (things like datasette --config default_page_size:10 ) has been renamed to settings . New --setting default_page_size 10 option as a replacement for --config default_page_size:10 (note the lack of a colon). The --config option is deprecated but will continue working until Datasette 1.0. ( #992 ) The /-/config introspection page is now /-/settings , and the previous page redirects to the new one. ( #1103 ) The config.json file in Configuration directory mode is now called settings.json . ( #1104 ) The undocumented datasette.config() internal method has been replaced by a documented .setting(key) method. ( #1107 ) Also in this release: New plugin hook: database_actions(datasette, actor, database, request) , which adds menu items to a new cog menu shown at the top of the database page. ( #1077 ) datasette publish cloudrun has a new --apt-get-install option that can be used to install additional Ubuntu packages as part of the deployment. This is useful for deploying the new datasette-ripgrep plugin . ( #1110 ) Swept the documentation to remove words that minimize involved difficulty.

changelog:v1-0-a4 | changelog | v1-0-a4 | 1.0a4 (2023-08-21) | This alpha fixes a security issue with the /-/api API explorer. On authenticated Datasette instances (instances protected using plugins such as datasette-auth-passwords ) the API explorer interface could reveal the names of databases and tables within the protected instance. The data stored in those tables was not revealed. For more information and workarounds, read the security advisory . The issue has been present in every previous alpha version of Datasette 1.0: versions 1.0a0, 1.0a1, 1.0a2 and 1.0a3. Also in this alpha: The new datasette plugins --requirements option outputs a list of currently installed plugins in Python requirements.txt format, useful for duplicating that installation elsewhere. ( #2133 ) Writable canned queries can now define a on_success_message_sql field in their configuration, containing a SQL query that should be executed upon successful completion of the write operation in order to generate a message to be shown to the user.

changelog:v1-0-a2 | changelog | v1-0-a2 | 1.0a2 (2022-12-14) | The third Datasette 1.0 alpha release adds upsert support to the JSON API, plus the ability to specify finely grained permissions when creating an API token. See Datasette 1.0a2: Upserts and finely grained permissions for an extended, annotated version of these release notes. New /db/table/-/upsert API, documented here . upsert is an update-or-insert: existing rows will have specified keys updated, but if no row matches the incoming primary key a brand new row will be inserted instead. ( #1878 ) New register_permissions(datasette) plugin hook. Plugins can now register named permissions, which will then be listed in various interfaces that show available permissions. ( #1940 ) The /db/-/create API for creating a table now accepts "ignore": true and "replace": true options when called with the "rows" property that creates a new table based on an example set of rows. This means the API can be called multiple times with different rows, setting rules for what should happen if a primary key collides with an existing row. ( #1927 ) Arbitrary permissions can now be configured at the instance, database and resource (table, SQL view or canned query) level in Datasette's Metadata JSON and YAML files. The new "permissions" key can be used to specify which actors should have which permissions. See Other permissions in datasette.yaml for details. ( #1636 ) The /-/create-token page can now be used to create API tokens which are restricted to just a subset of actions, including against specific databases or resources. See API Tokens for details.

changelog:id174 | changelog | id174 | 0.14 (2017-12-09) | The theme of this release is customization: Datasette now allows every aspect of its presentation to be customized either using additional CSS or by providing entirely new templates. Datasette's metadata.json format has also been expanded, to allow per-database and per-table metadata. A new datasette skeleton command can be used to generate a skeleton JSON file ready to be filled in with per-database and per-table details. The metadata.json file can also be used to define canned queries , as a more powerful alternative to SQL views. extra_css_urls / extra_js_urls in metadata A mechanism in the metadata.json format for adding custom CSS and JS urls.

changelog:v1-0-a10 | changelog | v1-0-a10 | 1.0a10 (2024-02-17) | The only changes in this alpha correspond to the way Datasette handles database transactions. ( #2277 ) The database.execute_write_fn() method has a new transaction=True parameter. This defaults to True which means all functions executed using this method are now automatically wrapped in a transaction - previously the functions needed to roll transaction handling on their own, and many did not. Pass transaction=False to execute_write_fn() if you want to manually handle transactions in your function. Several internal Datasette features, including parts of the JSON write API , had been failing to wrap their operations in a transaction. This has been fixed by the new transaction=True default. | ["Changelog"] | [{"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2277", "label": "#2277"}] |

Redesign of register_output_renderer(datasette) to provide more context to the render callback and support an optional "can_render" callback that controls if a suggested link to the output format is provided. ( #581 , #770 ) Visually distinguish float and integer columns - useful for figuring out why order-by-column might be returning unexpected results.

( #706 ) New metadata.json option for setting a custom default page size for specific tables and views, see Setting a custom page size . ( #751 ) Canned queries can now be configured with a default URL fragment hash, useful when working with plugins such as datasette-vega , see Additional canned query options . ( #706 ) Fixed a bug in datasette publish when running on operating systems where the /tmp directory lives in a different volume, using a backport of the Python 3.8 shutil.copytree() function.

changelog:id18 | changelog | id18 | 0.61 (2022-03-23) | In preparation for Datasette 1.0, this release includes two potentially backwards-incompatible changes. Hashed URL mode has been moved to a separate plugin, and the way Datasette generates URLs to databases and tables with special characters in their name such as / and . has changed.

This scheme is explained here: Tilde encoding . ( #1657 ) Removed hashed URL mode from Datasette. The new datasette-hashed-urls plugin can be used to achieve the same result, see datasette-hashed-urls for details.
