datasette 0.55

on Python PyPI

Support for cross-database SQL queries and built-in support for serving via HTTPS.

• The new --crossdb command-line option causes Datasette to attach up to ten database files to the same /_memory database connection. This enables cross-database SQL queries, including the ability to use joins and unions to combine data from tables that exist in different database files. See Cross-database queries for details. (#283)
• --ssl-keyfile and --ssl-certfile options can be used to specify a TLS certificate, allowing Datasette to serve traffic over https:// without needing to run it behind a separate proxy. (#1221)
• The /:memory: page has been renamed (and redirected) to /_memory for consistency with the new /_internal database introduced in Datasette 0.54. (#1205)
• Added plugin testing documentation on Using pdb for errors thrown inside Datasette. (#1207)
• The official Datasette Docker image now uses Python 3.7.10, applying the latest security fix for that Python version. (#1235)
