| 316323336 | MDU6SXNzdWUzMTYzMjMzMzY= | 231 | metadata.json support for plugin configuration options | 9599 | closed | 0 | 4 | 2018-04-20T15:58:47Z | 2019-05-13T18:56:21Z | 2019-05-13T18:56:21Z | OWNER | My [datasette-cluster-map](https://github.com/simonw/datasette-cluster-map) plugin currently works by detecting `latitude` and `longitude` columns. I'd like to be able to configure it to look for different column names. One way to do this could be to support optional plugin configuration as part of `metadata.json`. Something like this: { "title": "Polar Bear Ear Tags, 2009-2011", "source": "USGS Alaska Science Center, Polar Bear Research Program", "source_url": "https://alaska.usgs.gov/products/data.php?dataid=130", "plugins": { "datasette_cluster_map": { "latitude_columns": [ "latitude", "Capture Latitude" ], "longitude_columns": [ "longitude", "Capture Longitude" ] } } } These settings should be supported at the root level or at the individual database or table level. They could also be exposed in the https://datasette-cluster-map-demo.now.sh/-/plugins debug tool.
