The main use-case for this endpoint now is going to be Datasette Registry (which really needs some more love).

That tool needs to be able to query a Datasette and find out:

  • What tables are available
  • What their columns are
  • Ideally, their row counts

A single /-/inspect call is no good here because with Datasette Library #417 I'm going to be encouraging MUCH larger Datasette instances, potentially with hundreds of attached databases and thousands of attached tables. So pagination will be essential.

Maybe a smarter approach will be the older idea of having a separate inspect for each database (and maybe each table):

  • /mydatabase/-/inspect
  • /mydatabase/mytable/-/inspect

Either way, I'm going to decouple this from milestone 0.28.
