| 807433181 | MDU6SXNzdWU4MDc0MzMxODE= | 1224 | can't start immutable databases from configuration dir mode | 295329 | closed | 0 | 0 | 2021-02-12T17:50:13Z | 2021-03-29T00:17:31Z | 2021-03-29T00:17:31Z | CONTRIBUTOR | Say I have a `/databases/` directory with multiple sqlite db files in that dir (`1.db` & `2.db`) and an `inspect-data.json` file. If I start datasette via `datasette -h 0.0.0.0 /databases/` then the resulting databases are set to `is_mutable: true` as inspected via http://127.0.0.1:8001/-/databases.json I don't want to have to list out the databases by name, e.g. `datasette -i /databases/1.db -i /databases/2.db` as i want the system to autodetect the sqlite dbs i have in the configuration directory According to the docs outlined in https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/settings.html?highlight=immutable#configuration-directory-mode this should be possible > `inspect-data.json` the result of running datasette inspect - any database files listed here will be treated as immutable, so they should not be changed while Datasette is running I believe that if the `inspect-json.json` file present, then in theory the databases will be automatically set to immutable via this code https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/9603d893b9b72653895318c9104d754229fdb146/datasette/app.py#L211-L216 However it appears the Click Multiple Options will return a tuple via https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/9603d893b9b72653895318c9104d754229fdb146/datasette/cli.py#L311-L317 The resulting tuple is passed to the Datasette app via `kwargs` and overrides the behaviour to set the databases to immutable via this arg https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/9603d893b9b72653895318c9104d754229fdb146/datasette/app.py#L182 If you think this is a bug and needs fixing, I am willing to make a PR to check for the empty `immutable` tuple before calling the Datasette class initializer as I think leaving that class interface alone is the best path here. Thoughts? Also - i'm loving Datasette, it truly is a wonderful tool, thank you :) | 107914493 | issue | {"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1224/reactions", "total_count": 1, "+1": 1, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | completed |
