Make specific Datasette tables visible to the public
## Installation
Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.
datasette install datasette-public
## Usage
Any tables listed in the `_public_tables` table will be visible to the public, even if the rest of the Datasette instance does not allow anonymous access.
The root user (and any user with the new `public-tables` permission) will get a new option in the table action menu allowing them to toggle a table between public and private.
Installing this plugin also causes `allow-sql` permission checks to fall back to checking if the user has access to the entire database. This is to avoid users with access to a single public table being able to access data from other tables using the `?_where=` query string parameter.
## Configuration
This plugin creates a new table in one of your databases called `_public_tables`.
This table defaults to being created in the first database passed to Datasette.
To create it in a different named database, use this plugin configuration:
```json
{
"plugins": {
"datasette-public": {
"database": "database_to_create_table_in"
}
}
}
```
## Development
To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:
cd datasette-public
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
Now install the dependencies and test dependencies:
pip install -e '.[test]'
To run the tests:
pytest
