| https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1518#issuecomment-974285803 | https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1518 | 974285803 | IC_kwDOBm6k_c46Emvr | 9599 | 2021-11-19T17:56:48Z | 2021-11-19T18:14:30Z | OWNER | Very confused by this piece of code here: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/1c13e1af0664a4dfb1e69714c56523279cae09e4/datasette/views/table.py#L37-L63 I added it in https://github.com/simonw/datasette/commit/754836eef043676e84626c4fd3cb993eed0d2976 - in the new world that should probably be replaced by pure JSON. Aha - this comment explains it: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/521#issuecomment-505279560 > I think the trick is to redefine what a "cell_row" is. Each row is currently a list of cells: > > https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/6341f8cbc7833022012804dea120b838ec1f6558/datasette/views/table.py#L159-L163 > > I can redefine the row (the `cells` variable in the above example) as a thing-that-iterates-cells (hence behaving like a list) but that also supports `__getitem__` access for looking up cell values if you know the name of the column. The goal was to support neater custom templates like this: ```html+jinja {% for row in display_rows %} <h2 class="scientist">{{ row["First_Name"] }} {{ row["Last_Name"] }}</h2> ... ``` This may be an argument for continuing to allow non-JSON-objects through to the HTML templates. Need to think about that a bit more. | {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | 1058072543 |
