Closes#943
* Datasette now requires httpx>=0.15
* Support OPTIONS without 500, closes#1001
* Added internals tests for datasette.client methods
* Datasette's own test mechanism now uses httpx to simulate requests
* Tests simulate HTTP 1.1 now
* Added base_url in a bunch more places
* Mark some tests as xfail - will remove that when new httpx release ships: #1005
Thanks @russss!
* Add register_output_renderer hook
This changeset refactors out the JSON renderer and then adds a hook and
dispatcher system to allow custom output renderers to be registered.
The CSV output renderer is untouched because supporting streaming
renderers through this system would be significantly more complex, and
probably not worthwhile.
We can't simply allow hooks to be called at request time because we need
a list of supported file extensions when the request is being routed in
order to resolve ambiguous database/table names. So, renderers need to
be registered at startup.
I've tried to make this API independent of Sanic's request/response
objects so that this can remain stable during the switch to ASGI. I'm
using dictionaries to keep it simple and to make adding additional
options in the future easy.
Fixes#440
Prior to this commit Datasette would calculate the content hash of every
database and redirect to a URL containing that hash, like so:
https://v0-27.datasette.io/fixtures => https://v0-27.datasette.io/fixtures-dd88475
This assumed that all databases were opened in immutable mode and were not
expected to change.
This will be changing as a result of #419 - so this commit takes the first step
in implementing that change by changing this default behaviour. Datasette will
now only redirect hash-free URLs under two circumstances:
* The new `hash_urls` config option is set to true (it defaults to false).
* The user passes `?_hash=1` in the URL
New _shape= parameter replacing old .jsono extension
Now instead of this:
/database/table.jsono
We use the _shape parameter like this:
/database/table.json?_shape=objects
Also introduced a new _shape called 'object' which looks like this:
/database/table.json?_shape=object
Returning an object for the rows key:
...
"rows": {
"pk1": {
...
},
"pk2": {
...
}
}
Refs #122
Also added support for descriptions and HTML descriptions.
Here's an example metadata.json file illustrating custom per-database and per-
table metadata:
{
"title": "Overall datasette title",
"description_html": "This is a <em>description with HTML</em>.",
"databases": {
"db1": {
"title": "First database",
"description": "This is a string description & has no HTML",
"license_url": "http://example.com/",
"license": "The example license",
"queries": {
"canned_query": "select * from table1 limit 3;"
},
"tables": {
"table1": {
"title": "Custom title for table1",
"description": "Tables can have descriptions too",
"source": "This has a custom source",
"source_url": "http://example.com/"
}
}
}
}
}
Closes#165, Refs #164
This means you can provide a custom base.html template that populates
extra_head and any of the default child templates will still render content
you included in that block.
Refs #158
Refs #153
Every template now gets CSS classes in the body designed to support custom
styling.
The index template (the top level page at /) gets this:
<body class="index">
The database template (/dbname/) gets this:
<body class="db db-dbname">
The table template (/dbname/tablename) gets:
<body class="table db-dbname table-tablename">
The row template (/dbname/tablename/rowid) gets:
<body class="row db-dbname table-tablename">
The db-x and table-x classes use the database or table names themselves IF
they are valid CSS identifiers. If they aren't, we strip any invalid
characters out and append a 6 character md5 digest of the original name, in
order to ensure that multiple tables which resolve to the same stripped
character version still have different CSS classes.
Some examples (extracted from the unit tests):
"simple" => "simple"
"MixedCase" => "MixedCase"
"-no-leading-hyphens" => "no-leading-hyphens-65bea6"
"_no-leading-underscores" => "no-leading-underscores-b921bc"
"no spaces" => "no-spaces-7088d7"
"-" => "336d5e"
"no $ characters" => "no--characters-59e024"
