The `datasette publish` and `datasette package` commands both now accept an
optional `--build` argument. If provided, this can be used to specify a branch
published to GitHub that should be built into the container.
This makes it easier to test code that has not yet been officially released to
PyPI, e.g.:
datasette publish now mydb.db --branch=master
You can now run these commands like so:
datasette now publish mydb.db \
--title="My Title" \
--source="Source" \
--source_url="http://www.example.com/" \
--license="CC0" \
--license_url="https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"
This will write those values into the metadata.json that is packaged with the
app. If you also pass --metadata= that file will be updated with the extra
values before being written into the Docker image.
Closes#92
The serve command now accepts --sql_time_limit_ms for customizing the SQL time
limit.
The publish and package commands now accept --extra-options which can be used
to specify additional options to be passed to the datasite serve command when
it executes inside the rusulting Docker containers.
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.
Closes#69
