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
Datasette previously only supported one type of faceting: exact column value counting.
With this change, faceting logic is extracted out into one or more separate classes which can implement other patterns of faceting - this is discussed in #427, but potential upcoming facet types include facet-by-date, facet-by-JSON-array, facet-by-many-2-many and more.
A new plugin hook, register_facet_classes, can be used by plugins to add in additional facet classes.
Each class must implement two methods: suggest(), which scans columns in the table to decide if they might be worth suggesting for faceting, and facet_results(), which executes the facet operation and returns results ready to be displayed in the UI.
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
Tables and custom SQL query results can now be exported as CSV.
The easiest way to do this is to use the .csv extension, e.g.
/test_tables/facet_cities.csv
By default this is served as Content-Type: text/plain so you can see it in
your browser. If you want to download the file (using text/csv and with an
appropriate Content-Disposition: attachment header) you can do so like this:
/test_tables/facet_cities.csv?_dl=1
We link to the CSV and downloadable CSV URLs from the table and query pages.
The links use ?_size=max and so by default will return 1,000 rows.
Also fixes#303 - table names ending in .json or .csv are now detected and
URLs are generated that look like this instead:
/test_tables/table%2Fwith%2Fslashes.csv?_format=csv
The ?_format= option is available for everything else too, but we link to the
.csv / .json versions in most cases because they are aesthetically pleasing.
If the user requests some _facet= options that do not successfully execute in
the configured facet_time_limit_ms, we now show a warning message like this:
These facets timed out: rowid, Title
To build this I had to clean up our SQLite interrupted logic. We now raise a
custom InterruptedError exception when SQLite terminates due to exceeding a
time limit.
In implementing this I found and fixed a logic error where invalid SQL was
being generated in some cases for our faceting calculations but the resulting
sqlite3.OperationalError had been incorrectly captured and treated as a
timeout.
Refs #255Closes#269
We now display sort options as a select box plus a descending checkbox, which
means you can apply sort orders even in portrait mode on a mobile phone where
the column headers are hidden.
