| 855451460 | MDU6SXNzdWU4NTU0NTE0NjA= | 1297 | Documentation: json1, and introspection endpoints | 192568 | open | 0 | 0 | 2021-04-12T00:38:00Z | 2021-04-12T01:29:33Z | CONTRIBUTOR | https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/facets.html notes that: > If your SQLite installation provides the json1 extension (you can check using /-/versions) Datasette will automatically detect columns that contain JSON arrays... When I check -/versions I see two sections relevant to json1: ``` "extensions": { "json1": null }, "compile_options": [ ... "ENABLE_JSON1", ``` The ENABLE_JSON1 makes me think json1 is likely available. But the `"json1": null` made me think it wasn't available (because of the `null`). It would help if the documentation provided clarity about how to know if json1 is installed. It would also be helpful if the `/-/versions` information signalled somehow that that is to be appended to the hostname or domain name (or whatever you want to call it, or simply show it, using `example.com/-/versions` instead of `/-/versions`. Likewise on that last point, for https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/introspection.html#introspection , at least at some point on that page detailing where those introspection endpoints go. (Sometimes documentation can be so abbreviated that it's hard for new users to figure out what's going on.) | 107914493 | issue | {"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1297/reactions", "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} |
