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.
https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/1875 made it impossible to declare
a function as a fixture multiple times, which we were doing across different
modules. The fix was to move our @pytest.fixture calls into decorators in the
tests/fixtures.py module.
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.
Closes#199
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"
]
}
}
}
}
}

If you set the source_url/license_url/source/license fields in your root
metadata those values will now be inherited all the way down to the database
and table templates.
The title/description are NOT inherited.
Also added unit tests for the HTML generated by the metadata.
