Datasette 1.0 will be the release of Datasette that attempts to provide a stable plugin API: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/milestone/7

There's a lot of work to be done before then, but as a starting point I'm going to support two very simple extension mechanisms:

  • Template system plugins - where the hook gets passed the Jinja environment and can freely register new template tags and filters
  • SQLite connection plugins - where the hook gets passed a new SQLite connection and can register custom SQLite functions

The template system hook will go near here:

https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/efbb4e83374a2c795e436c72fa79f70da72309b8/datasette/app.py#L1225-L1228

The SQLite connection hook will go near here:

https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/efbb4e83374a2c795e436c72fa79f70da72309b8/datasette/app.py#L1094-L1098

These two feel simple enough that I'm not worried that I might design an API that I later regret.
