For the table actions: attaching it to a cog icon next to the table name could make sense.

This is the column action icon at twice the size, color #666.

    "+1": 0,
    "-1": 0,

Row action menus are a question mark for me. Adding them to the table page itself could get really noisy - though maybe they're a vertical ... menu at the end of the row? They could also go on the row.html template, though that page is rarely used at the moment.

I'm going to skip row actions for the moment and concentrate on the other four, which I know I have use-cases for.

 
{
    "total_count": 0,
    "+1": 0,
    "-1": 0,
    "laugh": 0,
    "hooray": 0,
    "confused": 0,
    "heart": 0,
    "rocket": 0,
    "eyes": 0
}

I'm going to dedicate this issue to thinking about action menus. #981 added column action menus, others to build could be:

  • Table action menus (for things like configure FTS, edit schema)
  • Database action menus (import CSV file into this table)
  • Instance action menus (manage users, import CSV into this instance)
  • Column action menus (already there, plugins could include extract this column)
  • Row action menus?

And for instance-level actions (linking to datasette-import-csv for example) an actions menu anchored against a burger-bar menu icon in the navigation bar.

 
{
    "total_count": 0,
    "+1": 0,
    "-1": 0,
    "laugh": 0,
    "hooray": 0,
    "confused": 0,
    "heart": 0,
    "rocket": 0,
    "eyes": 0
