CLI reference
===============
The ``datasette`` CLI tool provides a number of commands.
Running ``datasette`` without specifying a command runs the default command, ``datasette serve``. See :ref:`cli_help_serve___help` for the full list of options for that command.

cog.out(textwrap.indent(output, ' '))
cog.out("\n\n")

Additional commands added by plugins that use the :ref:`plugin_hook_register_commands` hook will be listed here as well.
.. _cli_help_serve___help:
datasette serve
===============
This command starts the Datasette web application running on your machine::
datasette serve mydatabase.db
Or since this is the default command you can run this instead::
datasette mydatabase.db
Once started you can access it at ``http://localhost:8001``
.. [[[cog
help(["serve", "--help"])

::
Usage: datasette serve [OPTIONS] [FILES]...
Serve up specified SQLite database files with a web UI
Options:
-i, --immutable PATH Database files to open in immutable mode
-h, --host TEXT Host for server. Defaults to 127.0.0.1 which means
only connections from the local machine will be
allowed. Use 0.0.0.0 to listen to all IPs and allow
access from other machines.
-p, --port INTEGER RANGE Port for server, defaults to 8001. Use -p 0 to
automatically assign an available port.
[0<=x<=65535]
--uds TEXT Bind to a Unix domain socket
--reload Automatically reload if code or metadata change
detected - useful for development
--cors Enable CORS by serving Access-Control-Allow-Origin:
*

--help Show this message and exit.
.. [[[end]]]
.. _cli_datasette_get:
datasette --get
---------------
The ``--get`` option to ``datasette serve`` (or just ``datasette``) specifies the path to a page within Datasette and causes Datasette to output the content from that path without starting the web server.
This means that all of Datasette's functionality can be accessed directly from the command-line.
For example::
$ datasette --get '/-/versions.json' | jq .
{
"python": {
"version": "3.8.5",
"full": "3.8.5 (default, Jul 21 2020, 10:48:26) \n[Clang 11.0.3 (clang-1103.0.32.62)]"
},
"datasette": {
"version": "0.46+15.g222a84a.dirty"
},
"asgi": "3.0",
"uvicorn": "0.11.8",
"sqlite": {
"version": "3.32.3",
"fts_versions": [
"FTS5",
"FTS4",
"FTS3"
],
"extensions": {
"json1": null
},
"compile_options": [
"COMPILER=clang-11.0.3",
"ENABLE_COLUMN_METADATA",
"ENABLE_FTS3",
"ENABLE_FTS3_PARENTHESIS",
"ENABLE_FTS4",
"ENABLE_FTS5",
"ENABLE_GEOPOLY",
"ENABLE_JSON1",
"ENABLE_PREUPDATE_HOOK",
"ENABLE_RTREE",
"ENABLE_SESSION",
"MAX_VARIABLE_NUMBER=250000",
"THREADSAFE=1"
]
}
}
The exit code will be 0 if the request succeeds and 1 if the request produced an HTTP status code other than 200 - e.g. a 404 or 500 error.
This lets you use ``datasette --get /`` to run tests against a Datasette application in a continuous integration environment such as GitHub Actions.
.. _cli_help_serve___help_settings:

-------------------------------
This command outputs all of the available Datasette :ref:`settings <settings>`.
These can be passed to ``datasette serve`` using ``datasette serve --setting name value``.

.. _cli_help_inspect___help:
datasette inspect
=================
Outputs JSON representing introspected data about one or more SQLite database files.
If you are opening an immutable database, you can pass this file to the ``--inspect-data`` option to improve Datasette's performance by allowing it to skip running row counts against the database when it first starts running::
datasette inspect mydatabase.db > inspect-data.json
datasette serve -i mydatabase.db --inspect-file inspect-data.json
This performance optimization is used automatically by some of the ``datasette publish`` commands. You are unlikely to need to apply this optimization manually.
.. [[[cog
help(["inspect", "--help"])
.. ]]]
::
Usage: datasette inspect [OPTIONS] [FILES]...
Generate JSON summary of provided database files
This can then be passed to "datasette --inspect-file" to speed up count
operations against immutable database files.
