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:id72 | changelog | id72 | 0.34 (2020-01-29) | _search= queries are now correctly escaped using a new escape_fts() custom SQL function. This means you can now run searches for strings like park. without seeing errors. ( #651 ) Google Cloud Run is no longer in beta, so datasette publish cloudrun has been updated to work even if the user has not installed the gcloud beta components package. Thanks, Katie McLaughlin ( #660 ) datasette package now accepts a --port option for specifying which port the resulting Docker container should listen on.

Documentation . ( #682 ) Immutable databases that have had their rows counted using the inspect command now use the calculated count more effectively - thanks, Kevin Keogh. ( #666 ) --reload no longer restarts the server if a database file is modified, unless that database was opened immutable mode with -i . ( #494 ) New ?_searchmode=raw option turns off escaping for FTS queries in ?_search= allowing full use of SQLite's FTS5 query syntax .

Added documentation for db.execute() , see await db.execute(sql, ...) . Renamed db.execute_against_connection_in_thread() to db.execute_fn() and made it a documented method, see await db.execute_fn(fn) . New results.first() and results.single_value() methods, plus documentation for the Results class - see Results . | ["Changelog"] | [{"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/685", "label": "#685"}] |
changelog:id68 | changelog | id68 | 0.37.1 (2020-03-02) | Don't attempt to count table rows to display on the index page for databases > 100MB. ( #688 ) Print exceptions if they occur in the write thread rather than silently swallowing them. Handle the possibility of scope["path"] being a string rather than bytes Better documentation for the extra_template_vars(template, database, table, columns, view_name, request, datasette) plugin hook. | ["Changelog"] | [{"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/688", "label": "#688"}] |
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:id65 | changelog | id65 | 0.40 (2020-04-21) | Datasette Metadata can now be provided as a YAML file as an optional alternative to JSON. ( #713 ) Removed support for datasette publish now , which used the the now-retired Zeit Now v1 hosting platform. A new plugin, datasette-publish-now , can be installed to publish data to Zeit ( now Vercel ) Now v2. ( #710 ) Fixed a bug where the extra_template_vars(request, view_name) plugin hook was not receiving the correct view_name . ( #716 ) Variables added to the template context by the extra_template_vars() plugin hook are now shown in the ?_context=1 debugging mode (see template_debug ). ( #693 ) Fixed a bug where the "templates considered" HTML comment was no longer being displayed. ( #689 ) Fixed a datasette publish bug where --plugin-secret would over-ride plugin configuration in the provided metadata.json file. ( #724 ) Added a new CSS class for customizing the canned query page.

changelog:v1-0-a3 | changelog | v1-0-a3 | 1.0a3 (2023-08-09) | This alpha release previews the updated design for Datasette's default JSON API. ( #782 ) The new default JSON representation for both table pages ( /dbname/table.json ) and arbitrary SQL queries ( /dbname.json?sql=... ) is now shaped like this: { "ok": true, "rows": [ { "id": 3, "name": "Detroit" }, { "id": 2, "name": "Los Angeles" }, { "id": 4, "name": "Memnonia" }, { "id": 1, "name": "San Francisco" } ], "truncated": false } Tables will include an additional "next" key for pagination, which can be passed to ?_next= to fetch the next page of results. The various ?_shape= options continue to work as before - see Different shapes for details. A new ?_extra= mechanism is available for tables, but has not yet been stabilized or documented. Details on that are available in #262 . | ["Changelog"] | [{"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/782", "label": "#782"}, {"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/262", "label": "#262"}] |
changelog:id209 | changelog | id209 | 0.10 (2017-11-14) | Fixed #83 - 500 error on individual row pages. Stop using sqlite WITH RECURSIVE in our tests. The version of Python 3 running in Travis CI doesn't support this. | ["Changelog"] | [{"href": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/83", "label": "#83"}] |
changelog:id49 | changelog | id49 | 0.50 (2020-10-09) | The key new feature in this release is the column actions menu on the table page ( #891 ). This can be used to sort a column in ascending or descending order, facet data by that column or filter the table to just rows that have a value for that column. Plugin authors can use the new datasette.client object to make internal HTTP requests from their plugins, allowing them to make use of Datasette's JSON API. ( #943 ) New Deploying Datasette documentation with guides for deploying Datasette on a Linux server using systemd or to hosting providers that support buildpacks . ( #514 , #997 ) Other improvements in this release: Publishing to Google Cloud Run documentation now covers Google Cloud SDK options. Thanks, Geoffrey Hing. ( #995 ) New datasette -o option which opens your browser as soon as Datasette starts up. ( #970 ) Datasette now sets sqlite3.enable_callback_tracebacks(True) so that errors in custom SQL functions will display tracebacks. ( #891 ) Fixed two rendering bugs with column headers in portrait mobile view. ( #978 , #980 ) New db.table_column_details(table) introspection method for retrieving full details of the columns in a specific table, see Database introspection . Fixed a routing bug with custom page wildcard templates. ( #996 ) datasette publish heroku now deploys using Python 3.8.6. New datasette publish heroku --tar= option.

changelog:id57 | changelog | id57 | 0.46 (2020-08-09) | This release contains a security fix related to authenticated writable canned queries. If you are using this feature you should upgrade as soon as possible. Security fix: CSRF tokens were incorrectly included in read-only canned query forms, which could allow them to be leaked to a sophisticated attacker. See issue 918 for details. Datasette now supports GraphQL via the new datasette-graphql plugin - see GraphQL in Datasette with the new datasette-graphql plugin . Principle git branch has been renamed from master to main . ( #849 ) New debugging tool: /-/allow-debug tool ( demo here ) helps test allow blocks against actors, as described in Defining permissions with "allow" blocks .

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.
