Row update previously returned a singular "row" object where insert and
upsert return a "rows" list. All write endpoints now use "rows".

Invalid dstok_ tokens - bad signature, malformed payload, expired, or
presented while allow_signed_tokens is off - previously degraded the
request to anonymous, so clients saw a 403 permission error or worse,
a 200 with anonymous-visible data. Token handlers can now raise
TokenInvalid for tokens they recognize but reject; Datasette responds
with 401, the canonical JSON error body and a WWW-Authenticate: Bearer
error="invalid_token" header, even when a valid cookie is also present.
Bearer tokens no registered handler recognizes are still ignored, so
authentication plugins with their own token formats keep working.
TokenInvalid is exported from the datasette package for use by plugin
token handlers.

All JSON error responses now use a single format built by the new
datasette.utils.error_body() helper:
{"ok": false, "error": "...", "errors": ["..."], "status": 400}
- error is all messages joined with '; ', errors is the full list,
status always matches the HTTP status code
- The exception handler no longer emits the legacy title key in JSON
(it is still available to the HTML error template)
- The permission debug endpoints (/-/allowed, /-/rules, /-/check,
POST /-/permissions) no longer return bare {"error": ...} objects
- JSON renderer SQL errors keep their rows/truncated context keys but
now include the canonical keys as well
- _shape=object misuse (queries or tables without primary keys) now
returns HTTP 400 instead of 200 with an error body
- Method-not-allowed 405 responses use the canonical shape
Adds tests/test_error_shape.py covering all four previous shape
producers, updates affected tests, and documents the format in a new
'Error responses' section of docs/json_api.rst.
Implements section 1 of stable-api-recommendations.md.

Include current foreign key metadata in the alter table page data and allow the foreign-key-targets endpoint to be read by actors with alter-table permission for a specific table.
Add API and HTML data tests for the new alter-table foreign key support.
- Add foreignKeyTargetsPath to create table page data
- Filter hidden tables from database-level foreign key target results
- Update JSON API docs and tests for filtered targets
Returns a list of tables with a single primary key, and for each one
the name of that primary key column and its SQLite type affinity.
This will be used by the create table UI to suggest foreign keys.
- Add add_foreign_key, drop_foreign_key, and set_foreign_keys operations.
- Validate flat fk_table and fk_column arguments with Pydantic.
- Document the API and cover inferred primary-key and validation cases.
- Add fk_table and optional fk_column support to create-table columns.
- Validate create-table requests with Pydantic while preserving existing errors.
- Document the API and cover inferred primary-key and validation cases.
Refs https://github.com/simonw/datasette/pull/2789#issuecomment-4733544452
- Add POST /<database>/<table>/-/alter with Pydantic validation and dry-run support.
- Support add, rename, alter, drop, primary-key and reorder operations, including allow-listed default expressions.
- Document the endpoint and cover schema changes, validation, permissions, events and dry runs.

Closes#2649
* Add register_token_handler plugin hook for pluggable token backends
Adds a new register_token_handler hook that allows plugins to provide
custom token creation and verification backends. This enables plugins
like datasette-oauth to issue tokens without depending on specific
backend plugins like datasette-auth-tokens.
Key changes:
- New datasette/tokens.py with TokenHandler base class and SignedTokenHandler
(the default signed-token implementation moved here)
- New register_token_handler hookspec in hookspecs.py
- Datasette.create_token() is now async and delegates to token handlers
- New Datasette.verify_token() method tries all handlers in sequence
- handler= parameter on create_token() to select a specific backend
- TokenHandler exported from datasette package for plugin use
- Fixed actor_from_request loop to await all coroutines (avoids warnings)
* Add documentation and hook test for register_token_handler
Fixes CI failures: the new hook needs a section in docs/plugin_hooks.rst
(checked by test_plugin_hooks_are_documented) and a test_hook_* function
in test_plugins.py (checked by test_plugin_hooks_have_tests).
* Register tokens module as separate default plugin
Instead of re-exporting hookimpls from default_permissions/__init__.py,
register datasette.default_permissions.tokens as its own DEFAULT_PLUGINS
entry. Cleaner and avoids confusing import-for-side-effect patterns.
* Replace restrict_x params with TokenRestrictions dataclass
Consolidates the three separate restrict_all, restrict_database, and
restrict_resource parameters into a single TokenRestrictions dataclass.
Cleaner API surface for both Datasette.create_token() and
TokenHandler.create_token().
Also clarifies docs re: default handler selection via pluggy ordering.
* Add builder methods to TokenRestrictions
Adds allow_all(), allow_database(), and allow_resource() methods that
return self for chaining. Callers no longer need to manipulate nested
dicts directly:
restrictions = (TokenRestrictions()
.allow_all("view-instance")
.allow_database("mydb", "create-table")
.allow_resource("mydb", "mytable", "insert-row"))
* docs: add 1.0a25 upgrade guide section for create_token() signature change
Ref: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2649#issuecomment-3962639393
* docs: note that create_token() is now async in upgrade guide
* docs: update internals, plugin_hooks, authentication for new token API
- internals.rst: new async create_token() signature with restrictions
and handler params, add TokenRestrictions reference docs
- plugin_hooks.rst: show full create_token signature in TokenHandler
example, note list returns and error cases
- authentication.rst: cross-reference TokenRestrictions from the
restrictions section
* style: apply black formatting to token handler files
* docs: fix RST heading underline length in internals.rst
* tests: add restrictions round-trip and expiration tests for token handler
Covers allow_database/allow_resource builders, _r payload encoding,
and token_expires in verified actors. Coverage 76% -> 90%.
* tests: add test for signed tokens disabled
* fix: add TokenRestrictions TYPE_CHECKING import to fix ruff F821
* docs: regenerate plugins.rst with cog
* docs: reformat code blocks in plugin_hooks.rst with blacken-docs
* docs: add await .verify_token() to internals.rst
* tests: rewrite register_token_handler test to use real plugin handler
Adds a HardcodedTokenHandler to the test plugins dir that creates
tokens like dstok_hardcoded_token_1. The test now exercises creating
tokens via the default handler (which is the plugin's hardcoded one),
by explicitly naming the hardcoded handler, and by explicitly naming
the signed handler -- then verifies each token round-trips correctly.
* tests: clarify test_token_handler_via_http tests the default signed handler
* fix: use handler="signed" explicitly where signed tokens are expected
The HardcodedTokenHandler in my_plugin.py gets globally registered,
so create_token() without a handler name picks it up as the default.
Fix the create-token view, CLI, and tests to explicitly request the
signed handler where they depend on signed token behavior.
* fix: use handler="signed" in test_create_table_permissions
https://claude.ai/code/session_013cQFiDQjYRrRBH2biFfKuS
* Introduce new default /$DB/-/query endpoint
* Fix a lot of tests
* Update pyodide test to use query endpoint
* Link to /fixtures/-/query in a few places
* Documentation for QueryView
