* New --plugins-dir=plugins/ option
New option causing Datasette to load and evaluate all of the Python files in
the specified directory and register any plugins that are defined in those
files.
This new option is available for the following commands:
datasette serve mydb.db --plugins-dir=plugins/
datasette publish now/heroku mydb.db --plugins-dir=plugins/
datasette package mydb.db --plugins-dir=plugins/
* Unit tests for --plugins-dir=plugins/
Closes#211
You can now explicitly set which columns in a table can be used for sorting
using the _sort and _sort_desc arguments using metadata.json:
{
"databases": {
"database1": {
"tables": {
"example_table": {
"sortable_columns": [
"height",
"weight"
]
}
}
}
}
}

Verifies that they match an existing column, and only one or the other option
is provided - refs #189
Eses a new DatasetteError exception that closes#193
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": {
...
}
}
