I've completed some changes to my fork of datasette that allows it to automatically create the parquet virtual table when you supply it with a filename that has the "".parquet"" extension.

I had to figure out how to make the ""CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE"" statement only be applied to the fake in memory parquet database and not to any others that were also being loaded.  Thus it supports mixed mode databases e.g

```
datasette my_test.parquet normal_sqlite_file.db  --load-extension=libparquet.so --load-extensio
n=mod_spatialite.so
```

Please see my changes here:

Thanks

In the first terminal:

```datasette airports.db --load-extension=libparquet```

In another terminal I load the same sqlite db file using the sqlite3 cli client.

```$ sqlite3 airports.db```

and then load the parquet extension and create the virtual table.

```
sqlite> .load /home/darreng/metars/libparquet
sqlite> CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE mytable USING parquet('/home/xx/data.parquet');
```

Now the parquet virtual table is usable by the datasette web UI.

Its not an ideal solution but is a proof that datasette works the parquet extension.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",548591089,Allow creation of virtual tables at startup,
