https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2093#issuecomment-1688532012 | https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/2093 | 1688532012 | IC_kwDOBm6k_c5kpPQs | 15178711 | 2023-08-22T16:21:40Z | 2023-08-22T16:21:40Z | CONTRIBUTOR | OK Here's the gameplan for this, which is closely tied to #2143 : - We will add a new `datasette.json`/`datasette.yaml` configuration file to datasette, which combines settings/plugin config/permissions/canned queries into a new file format - Metadata will NOT be a part of this file - TOML support is not planned, but maybe we can create a separate issue for support TOML with JSON/YAML - The `settings.json` file will be deprecated, and the `--config` arg will be brought back. - Command line arguments can still be used to overwrite values (ex `--setting` will overwrite settings in `datasette.yaml` The format of `datasette.json` will follow what Simon listed here: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/2143#issuecomment-1684484426 Here's the current implementation plan: 1. Add a new `--config` flag and port over `"settings"` into a new datasette.json config file, remove settings.json 2. Add top-level plugin config support to `datasette.json` 3. Figure out database/table structure of config `datasette.json` 4. Port over database/table level plugin config support `datasette.json` 5. Port over permissions/auth settings to `datasette.json` 6. Deprecate non-metadata values in `metadata.json` | { "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0 } |

I imagine there'll be many different ways to store metadata, including any possible `datasette_metadata` or sqlite-docs, or the older metadata.json way. The next question will be how precedence should work - i'd imagine metadata.json > plugins > datasette_metadata > sqlite-docs | { "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0 } |

A `datasette_metadata` table or the `sqlite-docs` extension seem like two reasonable additions that we can work through. Storing metadata inside a SQLite database makes sense, but I don't think storing `datasette.*` style config (ex ports, settings, etc.) inside a SQLite DB makes sense, since it's very environment-dependent | { "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0 } |

Editing description of a table/column in a file like `datasette.*` seems odd to me. Though since plugin configuration currently lives in `metadata.json`, I think it should be removed from there and placed in `datasette.*`, at least for top-level config like `datasette-auth-github`'s config. Keeping `metadata.json` strictly for documentation/licensing/column units makes sense to me, but anything plugin related should be in some config file, like `datasette.*`. And ya, supporting both `datasette.*` and CLI flags makes a lot of sense to me. Any `--setting` flag should override anything in `datasette.*` for easier debugging, with possibly a warning message so people don't get confused. Same with `--port` and a port defined in `datasette.*` | { "total_count": 1, "+1": 1, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0 } |
