Datasette plugin that shows the schema version of every attached database
Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.
$ datasette install datasette-schema-versions
Visit /-/schema-versions on your Datasette instance to see a numeric version for the schema for each of your databases.
Any changes you make to the schema will increase this version number.
Datasette plugin for importing tables from other Datasette instances
Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.
$ datasette install datasette-import-table
Visit /-/import-table for the interface. Paste in the URL to a table page on another Datasette instance and click the button to import that table.
By default only the root actor can access the page - so you'll need to run Datasette with the --root option and click on the link shown in the terminal to sign in and access the page.
The import-table permission governs access. You can use permission plugins such as datasette-permissions-sql to grant additional access to the write interface.
To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:
cd datasette-import-table
python3 -mvenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
Or if you are using pipenv:
pipenv shell
Now install the dependencies and tests:
pip install -e '.[test]'
To run the tests:
pytest
Treat the X-Forwarded-Host header as the Host header
Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.
$ datasette install datasette-x-forwarded-host
Once installed, Datasette will replace the host header with the content of the incoming x-forwarded-host header.
This helps Datasette generate links to new pages that work when hosted behind a proxy that rewrites the host header.
Only use this plugin in deployment environmens where you know the x-forwarded-host header can be trusted!
This has been tested on GitHub Codespaces and GitPod.
To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:
cd datasette-x-forwarded-host
python3 -mvenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
Or if you are using pipenv:
pipenv shell
Now install the dependencies and test dependencies:
pip install -e '.[test]'
To run the tests:
pytest
Expose the Datasette request object to custom templates
Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.
$ datasette install datasette-template-request
Once this plugin is installed, Datasette custom templates can use {{ request }} to access the current request object. For example, to access ?name=Cleo in the query string a template could use this:
Name: {{ request.args.name }}
To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:
cd datasette-template-request
python3 -mvenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
Or if you are using pipenv:
pipenv shell
Now install the dependencies and test dependencies:
pip install -e '.[test]'
