323658641,MDU6SXNzdWUzMjM2NTg2NDE=,262,Add ?_extra= mechanism for requesting extra properties in JSON,9599,open,0,,3268330,27,2018-05-16T14:55:42Z,2023-03-29T06:22:22Z,,OWNER,,"Datasette views currently work by creating a set of data that should be returned as JSON, then defining an additional, optional `template_data()` function which is called if the view is being rendered as HTML.

This `template_data()` function calculates extra template context variables which are necessary for the HTML view but should not be included in the JSON.

Example of how that is used today: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/2b79f2bdeb1efa86e0756e741292d625f91cb93d/datasette/views/table.py#L672-L704

With features like Facets in #255 I'm beginning to want to move more items into the `template_data()` - in the case of facets it's the `suggested_facets` array. This saves that feature from being calculated (involving several SQL queries) for the JSON case where it is unlikely to be used.

But... as an API user, I want to still optionally be able to access that information.

Solution: Add a `?_extra=suggested_facets&_extra=table_metadata` argument which can be used to optionally request additional blocks to be added to the JSON API.

Then redefine as many of the current `template_data()` features as extra arguments instead, and teach Datasette to return certain extras by default when rendering templates.

This could allow the JSON representation to be slimmed down further (removing e.g. the `table_definition` and `view_definition` keys) while still making that information available to API users who need it.",107914493,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/262/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,
