* Add request.form() for multipart form data and file uploads
New Request.form() method that handles both application/x-www-form-urlencoded
and multipart/form-data content types with streaming parsing.
Features:
- Streaming multipart parser that doesn't buffer entire body in memory
- Files spill to disk above 1MB threshold via SpooledTemporaryFile
- files=False (default) discards file content, files=True stores them
- Security limits: max_request_size, max_file_size, max_fields, max_files
- FormData container with dict-like access and getlist() for multiple values
- UploadedFile class with async read(), seek(), filename, content_type, size
- Support for RFC 5987 filename* encoding for international filenames
Uses multipart-form-data-conformance test suite for validation.
* Update views to use request.form() and document new API
- Migrate PermissionsDebugView, MessagesDebugView, and CreateTokenView
from post_vars() to form()
- Add documentation for request.form(), FormData, and UploadedFile classes
Centralize multipart defaults and expose stricter limits via Request.form().
Enforce header, part, file, and disk space limits even when files are discarded; detect truncated bodies and client disconnects; and move blocking work off the event loop.
Add FormData close/aclose context managers, update internals docs, and expand multipart tests (including len semantics and stricter conformance expectations).
* Fix test isolation bug in test_startup_error_from_plugin_is_click_exception
The test creates a plugin that raises StartupError("boom") and registers it
in the global plugin manager (pm). Without cleanup, this plugin leaks to
subsequent tests, causing test_setting_boolean_validation_false_values to
fail with "Error: boom" instead of "Forbidden".
Add try/finally block to ensure the plugin is unregistered after the test
completes, following the established cleanup pattern used elsewhere in
the test suite.
* Fix blacken-docs formatting in plugin_hooks.rst
Apply blacken-docs formatting to code example that exceeded
the 60 character line limit.

Simplified Action by moving takes_child/takes_parent logic to Resource
- Removed InstanceResource - global actions are now simply those with resource_class=None
- Resource.parent_class - Replaced parent_name: str with parent_class: type[Resource] | None for direct class references
- Simplified Action dataclass - No more redundant fields, everything is derived from the Resource class structure
- Validation - The __init_subclass__ method now checks parent_class.parent_class to enforce the 2-level hierarchy
Closes#2563
* Add keyset pagination to allowed_resources()
This replaces the unbounded list return with PaginatedResources,
which supports efficient keyset pagination for handling thousands
of resources.
Closes#2560
Changes:
- allowed_resources() now returns PaginatedResources instead of list
- Added limit (1-1000, default 100) and next (keyset token) parameters
- Added include_reasons parameter (replaces allowed_resources_with_reasons)
- Removed allowed_resources_with_reasons() method entirely
- PaginatedResources.all() async generator for automatic pagination
- Uses tilde-encoding for tokens (matching table pagination)
- Updated all callers to use .resources accessor
- Updated documentation with new API and examples
The PaginatedResources object has:
- resources: List of Resource objects for current page
- next: Token for next page (None if no more results)
- all(): Async generator that yields all resources across pages
Example usage:
page = await ds.allowed_resources("view-table", actor, limit=100)
for table in page.resources:
print(table.child)
# Iterate all pages automatically
async for table in page.all():
print(table.child)

* Neater design for PermissionSQL class, refs #2556
- source is now automatically set to the source plugin
- params is optional
* PermissionSQL.allow() and PermissionSQL.deny() shortcuts
Closes#2556
* Filter out temp database from attached_databases()
Refs https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2557#issuecomment-3470510837
* Ported setup.py to pyproject.toml, refs #2553
* Make fixtures tests less flaky
The in-memory fixtures table was being shared between different
instances of the test client, leading to occasional errors when
running the full test suite.
Added test_rst_heading_underlines_match_title_length() to verify that RST
heading underlines match their title lengths. The test properly handles:
- Overline+underline style headings (skips validation for those)
- Empty lines before underlines (ignores them)
- Minimum 5-character underline length (avoids false positives)
Running this test identified 14 heading underline mismatches which have
been fixed across 5 documentation files:
- docs/authentication.rst (3 headings)
- docs/plugin_hooks.rst (4 headings)
- docs/internals.rst (5 headings)
- docs/deploying.rst (1 heading)
- docs/changelog.rst (1 heading)

Updated check_visibility() method signature to accept Resource objects
(DatabaseResource, TableResource, QueryResource) instead of plain strings
and tuples.
Changes:
- Updated check_visibility() signature to only accept Resource objects
- Added validation with helpful error message for incorrect types
- Updated all check_visibility() calls throughout the codebase:
- datasette/views/database.py: Use DatabaseResource and QueryResource
- datasette/views/special.py: Use DatabaseResource and TableResource
- datasette/views/row.py: Use TableResource
- datasette/views/table.py: Use TableResource
- datasette/app.py: Use TableResource in expand_foreign_keys
- Updated tests to use Resource objects
- Updated documentation in docs/internals.rst:
- Removed outdated permissions parameter
- Updated examples to use Resource objects

Implements a new ensure_permission() method that is a convenience wrapper
around allowed() that raises Forbidden instead of returning False.
Changes:
- Added ensure_permission() method to datasette/app.py
- Updated all views to use ensure_permission() instead of the pattern:
if not await self.ds.allowed(...): raise Forbidden(...)
- Updated docs/internals.rst to document the new method
- Removed old ensure_permissions() documentation (that method was already removed)
The new method simplifies permission enforcement in views and makes the
code more concise and consistent.
