- 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.

- Extract reusable helpers for database and table action permission preloading.
- Precompute those permissions before building table-page HTML data.
- Document the default table actions plugin.
- 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.
Refs #2788
- Simplify JavaScript column field context:
- expose `isPk` instead of `isPrimaryKey`
- expose `defaultExpression` instead of separate SQLite default flags
- remove value/default state from plugin context
- Update field helper behavior:
- `setValue()` no longer dispatches input/change events
- remove dispatch options and `resetValue()`
- add `markClean()` for plugin-normalized initial values
- track clean field state for reliable dirty detection
Also:
- Prompt before closing row insert/edit dialogs when there are unsaved changes
- Map declared SQLite types to affinities, returning `BLOB` for typeless columns and `NUMERIC` for numeric/date/boolean-like declarations
Replace the value/valueType/originalValue/originalValueType fields on makeColumnField() contexts with an explicit field object API for reading, writing, resetting, comparing and validating field values.
Normalize columnType to {type, config}, rename the SQLite default metadata so it is clearly SQLite-specific, and document that plugins submit only string, number, boolean or null values. Plugins that need structured data should serialize it themselves instead of relying on Datasette to special-case JSON.
Move the built-in json column type behavior onto the same plugin API used by external plugins: validate the textarea with field.setValidity() as the value changes, but submit plain text. Harden row edit value comparison so fixing invalid JSON in an existing row is not blocked by the original invalid value.
Update the JavaScript plugin documentation and Node-based tests for the revised field contract.
Use a compact data-row attribute on table row fragments and derive row API URLs in JavaScript from a page-level table URL. Add a /-/fragment endpoint so edited rows can be re-rendered with the active table template and render_cell hooks, then replaced in place after a successful save.
Document the custom _table.html data-row contract and cover the fragment endpoint, base_url handling, and row markup with tests.
