It would also be interesting to try out the SQL hint mode, which can autocomplete against tables and columns. This demo shows how to configure that: https://codemirror.net/mode/sql/

Some missing documentation: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20023381/codemirror-how-add-tables-to-sql-hint Originally posted by @simonw in https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/948#issuecomment-679355426

I've started to encounter a bug where queries to tables inside named in-memory databases sometimes trigger server hangs.

I'm still trying to figure out what's going on here - on one occasion I managed to Ctrl+C the server and saw an exception that mentioned a thread lock, but usually hitting Ctrl+C does nothing and I have to kill -9 the PID instead.

This is all running on my M2 Mac.

I've seen the bug in the Datasette 1.0 alphas and in Datasette 0.64.3 - but reverting to 0.61 appeared to fix it.

Got this running tests against Python 3.11.

I ran with pytest -Werror --pdb -x to get the debugger for that warning, but it turned out searching the code worked better. It's used in these two places:

This is a bit of a mystery, I don't think I've changed anything recently that could have broken this.

That passed on 3.8 but should have failed: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/actions/runs/6266341481/job/17017099801 - the "Test DATASETTE_LOAD_PLUGINS" test shows errors but did not fail the CI run.

I just spotted a bug when using https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-configure-fts and https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-edit-schema at the same time.

Steps to reproduce:

• Configure FTS for a table, then run a test search
• Edit the schema for that table and change the order of columns
• Run the test search again

I got the wrong search results, which I think is because the _fts table pointed to the first table by rowid but those rowid values were entirely rewritten as a consequence of running table.transform() on the table.

Reconfiguring FTS on the table fixed the problem.

I think table.transform() should be able to preserve rowid values.

Refs: - #592

• [x] Tests against weird shaped tables

I need to test that this works against:

• rowid tables
• Tables that have a column called rowid even though they are not rowid tables

:books: Documentation preview :books:: https://sqlite-utils--593.org.readthedocs.build/en/593/

In building Datasette Cloud we realized that a bunch of the features we are building need a way of resolving an actor ID to the actual actor, in order to display something more interesting than just an integer ID.

Social plugins in particular need this - comments by X, CSV uploaded by X, that kind of thing.

I think the solution is a new plugin hook: actors_from_ids(datasette, ids) which can return a list of actor dictionaries.

The default implementation can return [{"id": "..."}] for the IDs passed to it.

Pluggy has a firstresult=True option which is relevant here, since this is the first plugin hook we will have implemented where only one plugin should provide an answer.

I'm going to try and get this working through an environment variable, so that you can start Datasette and it will only load a subset of plugins including those that use the register_commands() hook.

Initial research on this: - https://github.com/pytest-dev/pluggy/issues/422

Refs: - #2180

This plugin hook is feature complete - including documentation and tests.

I'm not going to land it in Datasette main until we've used it at least once though, which should happen promptly in development for Datasette Cloud.

:books: Documentation preview :books:: https://datasette--2181.org.readthedocs.build/en/2181/

Spotted this problem while working on this plugin: - https://github.com/simonw/datasette-public

It's possible to make a table public to any users - but then you may end up with situations like this:

That table is public, but the foreign key links go to tables that are NOT public.

We're also leaking the names of the values in those private tables here, which we shouldn't do. So this is a tiny bit of an information leak.

Since this only affects people who have configured a table to be public that has foreign keys to a table that is private I don't think this is worth issuing a vulnerability report about - I very much doubt anyone is running Datasette configured in a way that could result in problems because of this.

This test here: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/fbcb103c0cb6668018ace539a01a6a1f156e8d6a/tests/test_api.py#L1011-L1020

It failed for me like this:

E AssertionError: assert [('normal', False), ('sqlite_stat1', True), ('sqlite_stat4', True)] in ([('normal', False), ('sqlite_stat1', True)],)

Looks like some builds of SQLite include a sqlite_stat4 table.

I've used this pattern twice now: https://til.simonwillison.net/datasette/register-new-plugin-hooks - in datasette-graphql and datasette-low-disk-space-hook. I should describe the pattern on https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/writing_plugins.html

I noticed that a token with execute-sql permission alone did not work, because it was not allowed to view the instance of the database.

The BaseView class has a method for cascading permission checks, but it's not easily accessible to plugins.

https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/5eb8e9bf250b26e30b017d39a392c33973997656/datasette/views/base.py#L75-L99

This leaves plugins like datasette-graphql having to implement their own versions of this logic, which is bad: https://github.com/simonw/datasette-graphql/issues/65

First check view-database - if that says False then disallow access, if it says True then allow access. If it says None check view-instance.

This should become a supported API that plugins are encouraged to use.

Discussed with Alex this morning. We think the American spelling is fine here (it's shorter than catalogue) and that it's a slightly less lazy name than core_.

Follows: - https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2157

Spotted a problem while working on this: if you grant a token access to view table for a specific table but don't also grant view database and view instance permissions, that token is useless.

This was a deliberate design decision in Datasette - it's documented on https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0a2/authentication.html#access-permissions-in-metadata

If a user cannot access a specific database, they will not be able to access tables, views or queries within that database. If a user cannot access the instance they will not be able to access any of the databases, tables, views or queries.

I'm now second-guessing if this was a good decision.

Also includes a prototype implementation of --actor option which I'm using for testing this, from: - #2153

:books: Documentation preview :books:: https://datasette--2154.org.readthedocs.build/en/2154/

I experimented with a prototype of this here: - https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2102#issuecomment-1691037971_

Which lets me run requests as if they belonged to a specific actor like this:

bash datasette fixtures.db --get '/fixtures/facetable.json' --actor '{ "_r": { "r": { "fixtures": { "facetable": [ "vt" ] } } }, "a": "user" }'

Really useful for testing actors an _r options. Is this worth adding as a feature?

This change updates the -s/--setting option to datasette serve to allow it to be used to set arbitrarily complex nested settings in a way that is compatible with the new -c datasette.yml work happening in: - #2143

It will enable things like this: datasette data.db --setting plugins.datasette-ripgrep.path "/home/simon/code" For the moment though it just affects settings - so you can do this: datasette data.db --setting settings.sql_time_limit_ms 3500 I've also implemented a backwards compatibility mechanism, so if you use it this way (the old way): datasette data.db --setting sql_time_limit_ms 3500 It will notice that the setting you passed is one of Datasette's core settings, and will treat that as if you said settings.sql_time_limit_ms instead.

In thinking about the best way to implement https://github.com/simonw/datasette-auth-passwords/issues/6 (SQL-backed user accounts for datasette-auth-passwords) I realized that there are a few different use-cases where a plugin might want to store data that isn't visible to regular Datasette users:

• Storing password hashes
• Storing API tokens
• Storing secrets that are used for data import integrations (secrets for talking to the Twitter API for example)

Idea: allow one or more private database files to be attached to Datasette, something like this:

datasette github.db linkedin.db -s secrets.db -m metadata.yml

The secrets.db file would not be visible using any of the Datasette's usual interface or API routes - but plugins would be able to run queries against it.

So datasette-auth-passwords might then be configured like this:

yaml plugins: datasette-auth-passwords: database: secrets sql: "select password_hash from passwords where username = :username" The plugin could even refuse to operate against a database that hadn't been loaded as a secret database.

See: - https://github.com/simonw/datasette-configure-fts/issues/14 - https://github.com/simonw/datasette-auth-tokens/issues/12

It's EOL now, as of 2023-06-27 (two days ago): https://devguide.python.org/versions/

I'm going to drop Python 3.7.

It's not supported any more: https://devguide.python.org/versions/

Also added a lint unit test to ensure they stay sorted. #516

It is increasingly being useful configuration options, when it started out as purely metadata.

Could cause confusion with the --config mechanism though - maybe that should be called "settings" instead?

Split off from #274

Metadata should an optional "config" section at root, table or database level.

The TableView and RowView and DatabaseView and BaseView classes could all have a .config("key") method which knows how to resolve the hierarchy of configs.

This will allow individual tables (or databases) to set their own config settings for things like sql_time_limit_ms

Extremely detailed story of how I got to this point:

• https://github.com/simonw/llm/issues/162

Steps to reproduce (only if that pragma is on though): bash python -c ' import sqlite_utils db = sqlite_utils.Database(memory=True) db.execute(""" CREATE TABLE "logs" ( [id] INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, [model] TEXT, [prompt] TEXT, [system] TEXT, [prompt_json] TEXT, [options_json] TEXT, [response] TEXT, [response_json] TEXT, [reply_to_id] INTEGER, [chat_id] INTEGER REFERENCES [log]([id]), [duration_ms] INTEGER, [datetime_utc] TEXT ); """) db["logs"].add_foreign_key("reply_to_id", "logs", "id") ' This succeeds in some environments, fails in others.

This is the only place in the code that attempts to modify sqlite_master directly, which fails on some Python installations.

Could this use the .transform() trick instead?

Or automatically switch to that trick if it hits an error?

The new options added in: - #577 Deserve consideration in the CLI as well.

Also need a design for an option for the .transform() method to indicate that the new table should be created with a new name without dropping the old one.

I think keep_table="name_of_table" is good for this.

Originally posted by @simonw in https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/565#issuecomment-1646657324

Spotted this in the GitHub Actions logs:

... and it turns out running .transform() with no arguments still fixes the format of the schema!

```pycon

db["log"].add_column("foo", str)

For every command/API method there should be a link to the equivalent in the other form factor.

Maybe also link to the API and CLI reference pages too.

I find myself wanting two new features in sqlite-utils: - The ability to have the new transformed table set to a specific name, while keeping the old table around - The ability to rename a table (sqlite-utils doesn't have a table rename function at all right now)

Originally posted by @simonw in https://github.com/simonw/llm/issues/65#issuecomment-1618375042

Found myself using this pattern to quickly prototype a schema:

```python import sqlite_utils db = sqlite_utils.Database(memory=True)

print(db["answers_chunks"].create({ "id": int, "content": str, "embedding_type_id": int, "embedding": bytes, "embedding_content_md5": str, "source": str, }, pk="id", transform=True).schema) ```

Using replace=True to drop and then recreate the table would be neat here, and would be consistent with other places that use replace=True.

I'm going to start by adding the register_command hook using the exact same pattern as Datasette and LLM.

First of my CLI tools to use https://til.simonwillison.net/python/pyproject

YAML configuration is much better for multi-line strings, and I'm increasingly adding configuration options to Datasette that benefit from that - fragments of HTML in description_html or SQL queries used to configure things like https://github.com/simonw/datasette-atom for example.

Rather than confusing things by showing both in the documentation, I should switch all of the default examples to use YAML instead.

CSV files with empty cells in (which come through as the empty string) are common and a bit gross.

Having an option that means "and if it's an empty string store null instead) would be cool.

eval "$(_SQLITE_UTILS_COMPLETE=bash_source sqlite-utils)"

Need to add this to the installation docs here: https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/installation.html - along with the pattern for adding that to .zshrc or whatever.

e.g. in this section:

https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#running-queries-directly-against-csv-or-json

The little copy button will also copy the $ which breaks the examples when copied.

Noticed this while testing: - #547

If you pass a non-existent column to -c/--column you don't get an error message.

Noticed this:

``` % sqlite-utils analyze-tables content.db repos -c delete_branch_on_merge --common-limit 20 --no-least repos.delete_branch_on_merge: (1/1)

Total rows: 158 Null rows: 158 Blank rows: 0

Distinct values: 0

Most common: 158: None ```

The 158: None there is duplicate information considering we already know there are 158/158 null rows.

The "least common" section is frequently uninteresting, especially for huge tables with a large number of repeated-once values.

sqlite-utils analyze-tables content.db repos --common-limit 20 --no-least

I prototyped that here: https://github.com/simonw/one-off-actions/blob/main/.github/workflows/deploy-datasette-branch-preview.yml

It deployed the json-extras-query branch here: https://datasette-preview-json-extras-query.vercel.app/

I got this error:

File "/Users/simon/Dropbox/Development/openai-to-sqlite/openai_to_sqlite/cli.py", line 27, in embeddings rows, _ = rows_from_file(input) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/Users/simon/.local/share/virtualenvs/openai-to-sqlite-jt4obeb2/lib/python3.11/site-packages/sqlite_utils/utils.py", line 305, in rows_from_file first_bytes = buffered.peek(2048).strip() ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ From this code: ```python

@cli.command() @click.argument( "db_path", type=click.Path(file_okay=True, dir_okay=False, allow_dash=False), ) @click.option( "-i", "--input", type=click.File("r"), default="-", ) def embeddings(db_path, input): "Store embeddings for one or more text documents" click.echo("Here is some output") db = sqlite_utils.Database(db_path) rows, _ = rows_from_file(input) print(list(rows)) `` The error went away when I changed it totype=click.File("rb")`.

This should either be called out in the documentation or rows_from_file() should be fixed to handle text-mode files in addition to binary files.
