https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/188#issuecomment-412291327 | https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/188 | 412291327 | MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQxMjI5MTMyNw== | 9599 | 2018-08-11T17:53:17Z | 2018-08-11T17:53:17Z | OWNER | Potential problem: the existing `metadata.json` format looks like this: ``` { "title": "Custom title for your index page", "description": "Some description text can go here", "license": "ODbL", "license_url": "https://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/", "databases": { "database1": { "source": "Alternative source", "source_url": "http://example.com/", "tables": { "example_table": { "description_html": "Custom <em>table</em> description", "license": "CC BY 3.0 US", "license_url": "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/us/" } } } } } ``` This doesn't make sense for metadata that is bundled with a specific database - there's no point in having the `databases` key, instead the content of `database1` in the above example should be at the top level. This also means that if you rename the `*.db` file you won't have to edit its metadata at the same time. Calling such an embedded file `metadata.json` when the shape is different could be confusing. Maybe call it `database-metadata.json` instead. | { "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0 } |

I think that's OK. We could require that the `datasette_files` table is present in the first database file passed on the command-line. Or we could even construct a search path and consult multiple versions of the table spread across multiple files. That said... any configuration that corresponds to a specific table should live in the same database file as that table. Ditto for general metadata: if we have license/source information for a specific table or database that information should be able to live in the same .db file as the data. | { "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0 } |
