Also added support for descriptions and HTML descriptions.
Here's an example metadata.json file illustrating custom per-database and per-
table metadata:
{
"title": "Overall datasette title",
"description_html": "This is a <em>description with HTML</em>.",
"databases": {
"db1": {
"title": "First database",
"description": "This is a string description & has no HTML",
"license_url": "http://example.com/",
"license": "The example license",
"queries": {
"canned_query": "select * from table1 limit 3;"
},
"tables": {
"table1": {
"title": "Custom title for table1",
"description": "Tables can have descriptions too",
"source": "This has a custom source",
"source_url": "http://example.com/"
}
}
}
}
}
Closes#165, Refs #164

Every template now gets CSS classes in the body designed to support custom
styling.
The index template (the top level page at /) gets this:
<body class="index">
The database template (/dbname/) gets this:
<body class="db db-dbname">
The table template (/dbname/tablename) gets:
<body class="table db-dbname table-tablename">
The row template (/dbname/tablename/rowid) gets:
<body class="row db-dbname table-tablename">
The db-x and table-x classes use the database or table names themselves IF
they are valid CSS identifiers. If they aren't, we strip any invalid
characters out and append a 6 character md5 digest of the original name, in
order to ensure that multiple tables which resolve to the same stripped
character version still have different CSS classes.
Some examples (extracted from the unit tests):
"simple" => "simple"
"MixedCase" => "MixedCase"
"-no-leading-hyphens" => "no-leading-hyphens-65bea6"
"_no-leading-underscores" => "no-leading-underscores-b921bc"
"no spaces" => "no-spaces-7088d7"
"-" => "336d5e"
"no $ characters" => "no--characters-59e024"
If provided, the --metadata option is the path to a JSON file containing
metadata that should be displayed alongside the dataset.
datasette /tmp/fivethirtyeight.db --metadata /tmp/metadata.json
Currently that metadata format looks like this:
{
"title": "Five Thirty Eight",
"license": "CC Attribution 4.0 License",
"license_url": "http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/",
"source": "fivethirtyeight/data on GitHub",
"source_url": "https://github.com/fivethirtyeight/data"
}
If provided, this will be used by the index template and to populate the
common footer.
The publish command also accepts this argument, and will package any provided
metadata up and include it with the resulting Docker container.
datasette publish --metadata /tmp/metadata.json /tmp/fivethirtyeight.db
