They could also go on the `row.html` template, though that page is rarely used at the moment.

The ones I can think of are: - Sort numeric - Sort by parsed date - Sort by FTS rank Could this work if I just allow `_sort_clause=`? One possible solution for the no-arbitrary-SQL case: users can define sort orders in `metadata.json/yml`. So if you want to enable sort-by-distance without enabling arbitrary SQL you could add something like this: ```yaml databases: mydb: tables: museums: sort_clause: bm25(fts) ``` {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} ?sort=colname~numeric to sort by by column cast to real 657572753

Two options: - Try to detect if a text column is all-integers or all-floats, either by scanning the entire table (if it's small enough) or by scanning the first X rows, where X might be the size of the first page or maybe the first 1,000 or similar. - Could also let users define this in `metadata.yml` for the table. {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} ?sort=colname~numeric to sort by by column cast to real 657572753

I already do that in the JavaScript for "are there any blank values in the first page?" here: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/4f7c0ebd85ccd8c1853d7aa0147628f7c1b749cc/datasette/static/table.js#L106-L118 {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} ?sort=colname~numeric to sort by by column cast to real 657572753

One question: how to reflect that this is happening in the current sort UI. This menu here for example: <img width="440" alt="fixtures__compound_three_primary_keys__1_001_rows_where_sorted_by_pk3_descending" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/9599/96171519-e35ac180-0ed9-11eb-9945-6780054e4ad5.png"> And this interface: how should it indicate that a text is currently sorted numerically v.s. sorted alphabetically, and allow the user to switch from one to the other? <img width="794" alt="fixtures__sortable__201_rows_where_sorted_by_sortable_with_nulls_descending" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/9599/96171618-04bbad80-0eda-11eb-946c-ed3b17a8c749.png"> {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} ?sort=colname~numeric to sort by by column cast to real 657572753

I could automatically expand that menu to contain extra options for "Sort numerically by X" for each TEXT column in the table. That's a pretty good option. For the action cog menu, I can add the extra options to the cog menu - and rely on the fact that the title of the page will say "Sorted numerically by colname descending". {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} ?sort=colname~numeric to sort by by column cast to real 657572753

Can I come up with a value syntax for this that is guaranteed not to clash with a weirdly named existing column? I think so. I could use `{"type": "numeric", "column": "mycolumn"}` as the value - then if a column has a name that is itself valid JSON (weird but possible) the `_sort=` value would be `{"type": "default", "column": "{\"type\": \"numeric\", \"name\": \"column\"}"}`. {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} ?sort=colname~numeric to sort by by column cast to real 657572753

This is consistent with how `?_next=` tokens work, e.g. `?_next=0.291861560261786%2Ce%2Cj`. So the format can be: - `mycolumn` - `urlencoded-mycolumn$castname` For most columns this will look like: `?_sort=score$numeric` For columns with a `$` in their name it will be `?_sort=score%24hasdollar$numeric` Problem: both `$` and `,` are usually URL encoded anyway. I need a character which isn't encoded by default, so that I can use its encoded form to show it is part of the column name and its un-encoded form to split the cast indicator. `_` is a candidate here - not encoded by default, but can be encoded as `%5F`. The other unreserved non-alphanumeric characters are `-`, `.`, `_`, `~`. Of these, `~` is least likely to show up in a column name. So I'll use that. - `mycolumn` - `mycolumn~numeric` - `mycolumn%7Ewith%7Etildes~numeric` {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} ?sort=colname~numeric to sort by by column cast to real 657572753

The idea would be for `row` to be correctly turned into a URL by introspecting the primary keys for that table, then pulling those values out of the SQLite `row` object. Might not be necessary though. I also need a way for plugins to link to e.g. `/-/configure-fts` - or even `/-/configure-fts/database-name/table-name`.

The one catch here is plugins that might want to proxy the current incoming URL for some reason - where that incoming `request.path` could include the `base_url`. Actually those should be fine - because it will have been stripped off earlier: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/4f7c0ebd85ccd8c1853d7aa0147628f7c1b749cc/datasette/app.py#L963-L968 {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} How should datasette.client interact with base_url 722738988
