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 don't have a strong opinion about this, but I'm prototyping it as a plugin to start.)",107914493,datasette,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1699/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",, 1160034488,I_kwDOCGYnMM5FJLi4,411,Support for generated columns,25778,eyeseast,open,0,,,,,8,2022-03-04T20:41:33Z,2022-03-11T22:32:43Z,,CONTRIBUTOR,,"This is a fairly new feature -- SQLite version 3.31.0 (2020-01-22) -- that I, admittedly, haven't gotten to work yet.
