I used to use a tool called [datafreeze](https://github.com/pudo/datafreeze) to do scripted exports, but that project looks dead now. The ergonomics of it are pretty nice, though, and the `Freezefile.yml` structure is actually not too far from Datasette's canned queries.

This is based on discussions in #1356 and #1605. Before I get too far down this rabbit hole, I figure it's worth getting some feedback here (unless this should happen in `Discussions`). Here's what I'm thinking: At its most basic, it will write the results of a query to STDOUT. ```sh datasette query -d data.db 'select * from data' > results.json ``` This isn't much improvement over using [sqlite-utils](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils). To make better use of datasette and its ecosystem, run `datasette query` using a canned query defined in a `metadata.yml` file. For example, using the metadata file from [alltheplaces-datasette](https://github.com/eyeseast/alltheplaces-datasette/blob/main/metadata.yml): ```sh cd alltheplaces-datasette datasette query -d alltheplaces.db -m metadata.yml count_by_spider ``` That query would be good to get as CSV, and we can auto-discover metadata and databases in the current directory: ```sh cd alltheplaces-datasette datasette query count_by_spider -f csv ``` In this case, `count_by_spider` is a canned query defined on the `alltheplaces` database. If the same query is defined on multiple databases or its otherwise unclear which database `query` should use, pass the `-d` or `--database` option. If a query takes parameters, I can pass them in at runtime, using the `--param` or `-p` option: ```sh datasette query -d data.db -p value something 'select * from neighborhoods where some_column = :value' ``` I'm very interested in feedback on this, including whether it should be a plugin or in Datasette core.

I'm using pytest's `tmp_path` fixture, which is a `pathlib.Path`, to get a temporary database path. I was getting a weird error involving writes, but I was doing reads. Turns out it's the internal database trying to insert a `Path` where it wants a string. My test looked like this: ```python @pytest.mark.asyncio async def test_render_feature_collection(tmp_path): database = tmp_path / ""test.db"" datasette = Datasette([database]) # this will break with a path await datasette.refresh_schemas() # build a url url = datasette.urls.table(database.stem, TABLE_NAME, format=""geojson"") response = await datasette.client.get(url) fc = response.json() assert 200 == response.status_code ``` I only ran into this while running tests, because passing in database paths from the CLI uses strings, but it's a weird error and probably something other people have run into. The fix is easy enough: Convert the path to a string and everything works. So this: ```python @pytest.mark.asyncio async def test_render_feature_collection(tmp_path): database = tmp_path / ""test.db"" datasette = Datasette([str(database)]) # this is fine now await datasette.refresh_schemas() ``` This could (probably, haven't tested) be fixed [here](https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/03ec71193b9545536898a4bc7493274fec48bdd7/datasette/app.py#L357) by calling `str(db.path)` or by doing that conversion earlier.",107914493,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1365/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,completed 914130834,MDExOlB1bGxSZXF1ZXN0NjY0MDcyMDQ2,1370,Ensure db.path is a string before trying to insert into internal database,25778,closed,0,,,2,2021-06-08T01:16:48Z,2021-06-21T15:57:39Z,2021-06-21T15:57:39Z,CONTRIBUTOR,simonw/datasette/pulls/1370,"Fixes #1365 This is the simplest possible fix, with a test that will fail without it.
