| 213286752 | https://github.com/dogsheep/pocket-to-sqlite | https://github.com/dogsheep/pocket-to-sqlite/releases/tag/0.2.3 | 2023-07-09 | - Progress bar now includes a count of the total number of items to fetch. - Now packaged using `pyproject.toml`. [#12](https://github.com/dogsheep/pocket-to-sqlite/issues/12) | 2023-07-09T01:15:03Z | ["datasette", "datasette-io", "datasette-tool", "dogsheep", "pocket", "pocket-api", "sqlite"] |
| 140912432 | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/releases/tag/3.33 | 2023-06-26 | - `sqlite-utils` will now use [sqlean.py](https://github.com/nalgeon/sqlean.py) in place of `sqlite3` if it is installed in the same virtual environment. This is useful for Python environments with either an outdated version of SQLite or with restrictions on SQLite such as disabled extension loading or restrictions resulting in the `sqlite3.OperationalError: table sqlite_master may not be modified` error. ([#559](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/559)) - New `with db.ensure_autocommit_off()` context manager, which ensures that the database is in autocommit mode for the duration of a block of code. This is used by `db.enable_wal()` and `db.disable_wal()` to ensure they work correctly with `pysqlite3` and `sqlean.py`. - New `db.iterdump()` method, providing an iterator over SQL strings representing a dump of the database. This uses `sqlite-dump` if it is available, otherwise falling back on the `conn.iterdump()` method from `sqlite3`. Both `pysqlite3` and `sqlean.py` omit support for `iterdump()` - this method helps paper over that difference. | 2023-06-26T01:32:30Z | ["cli", "click", "datasette", "datasette-io", "datasette-tool", "python", "sqlite", "sqlite-database"] |
| 140912432 | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/releases/tag/3.32.1 | 2023-05-21 | - Examples in the [CLI documentation](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html) can now all be copied and pasted without needing to remove a leading `$`. ([#551](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/551)) - Documentation now covers [Setting up shell completion](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable//installation.html#installation-completion) for `bash` and `zsh`. ([#552](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/552)) | 2023-05-21T21:12:05Z | ["cli", "click", "datasette", "datasette-io", "datasette-tool", "python", "sqlite", "sqlite-database"] |
| 140912432 | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/releases/tag/3.32 | 2023-05-21 | - New experimental `sqlite-utils tui` interface for interactively building command-line invocations, powered by [Trogon](https://github.com/Textualize/trogon). This requires an optional dependency, installed using `sqlite-utils install trogon`. There is a screenshot [in the documentation](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#cli-tui). ([#545](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/545)) - `sqlite-utils analyze-tables` command ([documentation](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#cli-analyze-tables)) now has a `--common-limit 20` option for changing the number of common/least-common values shown for each column. ([#544](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/544)) - `sqlite-utils analyze-tables --no-most` and `--no-least` options for disabling calculation of most-common and least-common values. - If a column contains only `null` values, `analyze-tables` will no longer attempt to calculate the most common and least common values for that column. ([#547](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/547)) - Calling `sqlite-utils analyze-tables` with non-existent columns in the `-c/--column` option now results in an error message. ([#548](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/548)) - The `table.analyze_column()` method ([documented here](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/python-api.html#python-api-analyze-column)) now accepts `most_common=False` and `least_common=False` options for disabling calculation of those values. | 2023-05-21T18:55:42Z | ["cli", "click", "datasette", "datasette-io", "datasette-tool", "python", "sqlite", "sqlite-database"] |
| 140912432 | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/releases/tag/3.31 | 2023-05-08 | - Dropped support for Python 3.6. Tests now ensure compatibility with Python 3.11. ([#517](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/517)) - Automatically locates the SpatiaLite extension on Apple Silicon. Thanks, Chris Amico. ([#536](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/pull/536)) - New `--raw-lines` option for the `sqlite-utils query` and `sqlite-utils memory` commands, which outputs just the raw value of the first column of evy row. ([#539](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/539)) - Fixed a bug where `table.upsert_all()` failed if the `not_null=` option was passed. ([#538](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/538)) - Fixed a `ResourceWarning` when using `sqlite-utils insert`. ([#534](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/534)) - Now shows a more detailed error message when `sqlite-utils insert` is called with invalid JSON. ([#532](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/ises/532)) - `table.convert(..., skip_false=False)` and `sqlite-utils convert --no-skip-false` options, for avoiding a misfeature where the [convert()](http://127.0.0.1:8000/python-api.html#python-api-convert) mechanism skips rows in the database with a falsey value for the specified column. Fixing this by default would be a backwards-incompatible change and is under consideration for a 4.0 release in the future. ([#527](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/527)) - Tables can now be created with self-referential foreign keys. Thanks, Scott Perry. ([#537](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/pull/537)) - `sqlite-utils transform` no longer breaks if a table defines default values for columns. Thanks, Kenny Song. ([#509](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/509)) - Fixed a bug where repeated calls to `table.transform()` did not work correctly. Thanks, Martin Carpenter. ([#525](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/525)) - Improved error message if `rows_from_file()` is passed a non-binary-mode file-like object.

| 107914493 | https://github.com/simonw/datasette | https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/0.64.3 | 2023-04-27 | - Added `pip` and `setuptools` as explicit dependencies. This fixes a bug where Datasette could not be installed using [Rye](https://github.com/mitsuhiko/rye). ([#2065](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2065)) | 2023-04-27T15:00:27Z | ["asgi", "automatic-api", "csv", "datasets", "datasette", "datasette-io", "docker", "json", "python", "sql", "sqlite"] |

| 107914493 | https://github.com/simonw/datasette | https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/0.64.2 | 2023-03-08 | - Fixed a bug with `datasette publish cloudrun` where deploys all used the same Docker image tag. This was mostly inconsequential as the service is deployed as soon as the image has been pushed to the registry, but could result in the incorrect image being deployed if two different deploys for two separate services ran at exactly the same time. [#2036](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2036) | 2023-03-08T20:46:27Z | ["asgi", "automatic-api", "csv", "datasets", "datasette", "datasette-io", "docker", "json", "python", "sql", "sqlite"] |
| 107914493 | https://github.com/simonw/datasette | https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/0.64.1 | 2023-01-11 | - Documentation now links to a current source of information for installing Python 3. ([#1987](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1987)) - Incorrectly calling the Datasette constructor using `Datasette("path/to/data.db")` instead of `Datasette(["path/to/data.db"])` now returns a useful error message. ([#1985](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1985)) | 2023-01-11T18:27:56Z | ["asgi", "automatic-api", "csv", "datasets", "datasette", "datasette-io", "docker", "json", "python", "sql", "sqlite"] |
| 107914493 | https://github.com/simonw/datasette | https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/0.64 | 2023-01-09 | - Datasette now **strongly recommends against allowing arbitrary SQL queries if you are using SpatiaLite**. SpatiaLite includes SQL functions that could cause the Datasette server to crash. See [SpatiaLite](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/spatialite.html#spatialite) for more details. - New [default_allow_sql](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/settings.html#setting-default-allow-sql) setting, providing an easier way to disable all arbitrary SQL execution by end users: `datasette --setting default_allow_sql off`. See also [Controlling the ability to execute arbitrary SQL](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/authentication.html#authentication-permissions-execute-sql). ([#1409](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1409)) - [Building a location to time zone API with SpatiaLite](https://datasette.io/tutorials/spatialite) is a new Datasette tutorial showing how to safely use SpatiaLite to create a location to time zone API. - New documentation about [how to debug problems loading SQLite extensions](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/installation.html#installation-extensions). The error message shown when an extension cannot be loaded has also been improved. ([#1979](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1979)) - Fixed an accessibility issue: the `<select>` elements in the table filter form now show an outline when they are currently focused. ([#1771](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1771)) | 2023-01-09T16:49:04Z | ["asgi", "automatic-api", "csv", "datasets", "datasette", "datasette-io", "docker", "json", "python", "sql", "sqlite"] |
| 107914493 | https://github.com/simonw/datasette | https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/0.63.3 | 2022-12-18 | - Fixed a bug where `datasette --root`, when running in Docker, would only output the URL to sign in as root when the server shut down, not when it started up. ([#1958](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1958)) - You no longer need to ensure `await datasette.invoke_startup()` has been called in order for Datasette to start correctly serving requests - this is now handled automatically the first time the server receives a request. This fixes a bug experienced when Datasette is served directly by an ASGI application server such as Uvicorn or Gunicorn. It also fixes a bug with the [datasette-gunicorn](https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-gunicorn) plugin. ([#1955](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1955)) | 2022-12-18T03:10:52Z | ["asgi", "automatic-api", "csv", "datasets", "datasette", "datasette-io", "docker", "json", "python", "sql", "sqlite"] |
| 107914493 | https://github.com/simonw/datasette | https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/1.0a2 | 2022-12-15 | The third Datasette 1.0 alpha release adds upsert support to the JSON API, plus the ability to specify finely grained permissions when creating an API token. See [Datasette 1.0a2: Upserts and finely grained permissions](https://simonwillison.net/2022/Dec/15/datasette-1a2/) for an extended, annotated version of these release notes. - New `/db/table/-/upsert` API, [documented here](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/json_api.html#tableupsertview). upsert is an update-or-insert: existing rows will have specified keys updated, but if no row matches the incoming primary key a brand new row will be inserted instead. ([#1878](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1878)) - New [register_permissions(datasette)](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/plugin_hooks.html#plugin-register-permissions) plugin hook. Plugins can now register named permissions, which will then be listed in various interfaces that show available permissions. ([#1940](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1940)) - The `/db/-/create` API for [creating a table](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/json_api.html#tablecreateview) now accepts `"ignore": true` and `"replace": true` options when called with the `"rows"` property that creates a new table based on an example set of rows. This means the API can be called multiple times with different rows, setting rules for what should happen if a primary key collides with an existing row. ([#1927](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1927)) - Arbitrary permissions can now be configured at the instance, database and resource (table, SQL view or canned query) level in Datasette's [Metadata](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/metadata.html#metadata) JSON and YAML files. The new `"permissions"` key can be used to specify which actors should have which permissions. See [Other permissions in metadata](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/authentication.html#authentication-permissions-other) for details.

| 107914493 | https://github.com/simonw/datasette | https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/1.0a1 | 2022-12-01 | - Write APIs now serve correct CORS headers if Datasette is started in `--cors` mode. See the full list of [CORS headers](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/json_api.html#json-api) in the documentation. ([#1922](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1922)) - Fixed a bug where the `_memory` database could be written to even though writes were not persisted. ([#1917](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1917)) - The <https://latest.datasette.io/> demo instance now includes an `ephemeral` database which can be used to test Datasette's write APIs, using the new [datasette-ephemeral-tables](https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-ephemeral-tables) plugin to drop any created tables after five minutes. This database is only available if you sign in as the root user using the link on the homepage. ([#1915](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1915)) - Fixed a bug where hitting the write endpoints with a `GET` request returned a 500 error. It now returns a 405 (method not allowed) error instead. ([#1916](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1916)) - The list of endpoints in the API explorer now lists mutable databases first. ([#1918](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1918)) - The `"ignore": true` and `"replace": true` options for the insert API are [now documented](https://docs.datasette.io/en/latest/json_api.html#tableinsertview). ([#1924](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1924)) | 2022-12-01T21:42:45Z | ["asgi", "automatic-api", "csv", "datasets", "datasette", "datasette-io", "docker", "json", "python", "sql", "sqlite"] |
| 107914493 | https://github.com/simonw/datasette | https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/1.0a0 | 2022-11-29 | This first alpha release of Datasette 1.0 introduces a brand new collection of APIs for writing to the database ([#1850](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1850)), as well as a new API token mechanism baked into Datasette core. Previously, API tokens have only been supported by installing additional plugins. This is very much a preview: expect many more backwards incompatible API changes prior to the full 1.0 release. Feedback enthusiastically welcomed, either through [issue comments](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1850) or via the [Datasette Discord](https://datasette.io/discord) community. ### Signed API tokens - New `/-/create-token` page allowing authenticated users to create signed API tokens that can act on their behalf, see [API Tokens](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0-dev/authentication.html#createtokenview). ([#1852](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1852)) - New `datasette create-token` command for creating tokens from the command line: [datasette create-token](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0-dev/authentication.html#authentication-cli-create-token). - New [allow_signed_tokens](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0-dev/settings.html#setting-allow-signed-tokens) setting which can be used to turn off signed token support. ([#1856](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1856)) - New [max_signed_tokens_ttl](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0-dev/settings.html#setting-max-signed-tokens-ttl) setting for restricting the maximum allowed duration of a signed token. ([#1858](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1858)) ### Write API - New API explorer at `/-/api` for trying out the API. ([#1871](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1871)) - `/db/-/create` API for [Creating a table](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0-dev/json_api.html#tablecreateview). ([#1882](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1882)) - `/db/table/-/insert` API for [Inserting rows](https://docs.datasette.io/en/1.0-dev/json_api.html#tableinsertview).

([#1883](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1883)) - SQL query is now shown wrapped in a `<textarea>` if a query exceeds a time limit. ([#1876](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1876)) - Fixed an intermittent "Too many open files" error while running the test suite. ([#1843](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1843)) - New [db.close()](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/internals.html#database-close) internal method. | 2022-11-11T07:02:36Z | ["asgi", "automatic-api", "csv", "datasets", "datasette", "datasette-io", "docker", "json", "python", "sql", "sqlite"] |

| 140912432 | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils | https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/releases/tag/3.14 | 2021-08-02 | This release introduces the new [sqlite-utils convert command](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#cli-convert) ([#251](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/251)) and corresponding [table.convert(...)](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/python-api.html#python-api-convert) Python method ([#302](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/302)). These tools can be used to apply a Python conversion function to one or more columns of a table, either updating the column in place or using transformed data from that column to populate one or more other columns. This command-line example uses the Python standard library [textwrap module](https://docs.python.org/3/library/textwrap.html) to wrap the content of the `content` column in the `articles` table to 100 characters: ``` $ sqlite-utils convert content.db articles content\ '"\n".join(textwrap.wrap(value, 100))'\ --import=textwrap ``` The same operation in Python code looks like this: ```python import sqlite_utils, textwrap db = sqlite_utils.Database("content.db") db["articles"].convert("content", lambda v: "\n".join(textwrap.wrap(v, 100))) ``` See the full documentation for the [sqlite-utils convert command](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli.html#cli-convert) and the [table.convert(...)](https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/python-api.html#python-api-convert) Python method for more details.

Also new: `sqlite-utils insert --detect-types`, `sqlite-utils dump`, `table.use_rowid` plus some smaller fixes. ### sqlite-utils memory This example of `sqlite-utils memory` retrieves information about the all of the repositories in the [Dogsheep](https://github.com/dogsheep) organization on GitHub using [this JSON API](https://api.github.com/users/dogsheep/repos), sorts them by their number of stars and outputs a table of the top five (using `-t`): ``` $ curl -s 'https://api.github.com/users/dogsheep/repos'\ | sqlite-utils memory - ' select full_name, forks_count, stargazers_count from stdin order by stargazers_count desc limit 5 ' -t full_name forks_count stargazers_count --------------------------------- ------------- ------------------ dogsheep/twitter-to-sqlite 12 225 dogsheep/github-to-sqlite 14 139 dogsheep/dogsheep-photos 5 116 dogsheep/dogsheep.github.io 7 90 dogsheep/healthkit-to-sqlite 4 85 ``` The tool works against files on disk as well. This example joins data from two CSV files: ``` $ cat creatures.csv species_id,name 1,Cleo 2,Bants 2,Dori 2,Azi $ cat species.csv id,species_name 1,Dog 2,Chicken $ sqlite-utils memory species.csv creatures.csv ' select * from creatures join species on creatures.species_id = species.id ' [{"species_id": 1, "name": "Cleo", "id": 1, "species_name": "Dog"}, {"species_id": 2, "name": "Bants", "id": 2, "species_name": "Chicken"}, {"species_id": 2, "name": "Dori", "id": 2, "species_name": "Chicken"}, {"species_id": 2, "name": "Azi", "id": 2, "species_name": "Chicken"}] ``` … | 2021-06-19T16:13:11Z | ["cli", "click", "datasette", "datasette-io", "datasette-tool", "python", "sqlite", "sqlite-database"] |

| 107914493 | https://github.com/simonw/datasette | https://github.com/simonw/datasette/releases/tag/0.54 | 2021-01-25 | The two big new features in this release are the `_internal` SQLite in-memory database storing details of all connected databases and tables, and support for JavaScript modules in plugins and additional scripts. For additional commentary on this release, see [Datasette 0.54, the annotated release notes](https://simonwillison.net/2021/Jan/25/datasette/). ### The _internal database As part of ongoing work to help Datasette handle much larger numbers of connected databases and tables (see [Datasette Library](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/417)) Datasette now maintains an in-memory SQLite database with details of all of the attached databases, tables, columns, indexes and foreign keys. ([#1150](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1150)) This will support future improvements such as a searchable, paginated homepage of all available tables. You can explore an example of this database by [signing in as root](https://latest.datasette.io/login-as-root) to the `latest.datasette.io` demo instance and then navigating to [latest.datasette.io/_internal](https://latest.datasette.io/_internal). Plugins can use these tables to introspect attached data in an efficient way. Plugin authors should note that this is not yet considered a stable interface, so any plugins that use this may need to make changes prior to Datasette 1.0 if the `_internal` table schemas change. ### Named in-memory database support As part of the work building the `_internal` database, Datasette now supports named in-memory databases that can be shared across multiple connections. This allows plugins to create in-memory databases which will persist data for the lifetime of the Datasette server process. ([#1151](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1151)) The new `memory_name=` parameter to the [Database class](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/internals.html#internals-database) can be used to create named, shared in-memory databases. ### JavaScript modules [JavaScript modules](https://developer.mozill… | 2021-01-25T17:36:30Z | ["asgi", "automatic-api", "csv", "datasets", "datasette", "datasette-io", "docker", "json", "python", "sql", "sqlite"] |
