This is working really nicely now:

I could support explicit label columns using additional arguments to datasette serve:

datasette serve mydb.py --label-column mydb:table1:name --label-column mydb:table2:title

This would mean "in mydb, set the label column for table1 to name, and the label column for table2 to title"

csvs-to-sqlite is now capable of generating databases with foreign key lookup tables: https://github.com/simonw/csvs-to-sqlite/releases/tag/0.3

Since detecting foreign keys that point to a specific table is a bit expensive (you have to call a PRAGMA on every other table) I’m going to add this to the build/inspect stage.

Idea: if we detect that the foreign key table only has one other column in it (id, name) AND we know that the id is the primary key, we can add an efficient lookup on the table list view and prefetch a dictionary mapping IDs to their value. Then we can feed that dictionary in as extra tenplate context and use it to render labeled hyperlinks in the corresponding column.

This means our build step should also cache which columns are indexed, and add a “label_column” property for tables with an obvious lane column.

This will work well in conjunction with https://github.com/simonw/csvs-to-sqlite/issues/2

This can work in reverse too. If you view the row page for something that has foreign keys against it, we can show you “53 items in TABLE link to this” and provide a link to view them all.

That count worry could be prohibitively expensive. To counter that, we could run the count query via Ajax and set a strict time limit on it. See #95
