| 309047460 | MDU6SXNzdWUzMDkwNDc0NjA= | 188 | Ability to bundle metadata and templates inside the SQLite file | 9599 | open | 0 | 4 | 2018-03-27T16:42:07Z | 2020-12-04T17:18:34Z | OWNER | One of the nicest qualities of SQLite as a data format is that you get a single file which you can then backup or share with other people. Datasette breaks this a little once you start including custom metadata.json or template files and CSS. It would be cool if there was an optional mechanism for baking that extra configuration into the SQLite file itself. That way entire datasette mini-applications (including canned queries and custom HTML and CSS) could be constructed as single .db files. Since datasette configuration is all file-based, one way to achieve that would be to support a "datasette_files" table which, if present is used to search for file contents by path. This is inline with the philosophy described by https://www.sqlite.org/appfileformat.html | 107914493 | issue | {"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/188/reactions", "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} |
