## Installation
Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.
datasette install datasette-query-files
Or using `pip` or `pipenv`:
pip install datasette-query-files
pipenv install datasette-query-files## Usage
This plugin will look for [canned queries](https://docs.datasette.io/en/stable/sql_queries.html#canned-queries) in the filesystem, in addition any defined in metadata.
Let's say you're working in a directory called `project-directory`, with a database file called `my-project.db`. Start by creating a `queries` directory with a `my-project` directory inside it. Any SQL file inside that `my-project` folder will become a canned query that can be run on the `my-project` database. If you have a `query-name.sql` file and a `query-name.json` (or `query-name.yml`) file in the same directory, the JSON file will be used as query metadata.
```
project-directory/
my-project.db
queries/
my-project/
query-name.sql # a query
query-name.yml # query metadata
```## Development
To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:
cd datasette-query-files
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activateNow install the dependencies and test dependencies:
pip install -e '.[test]'
To run the tests:
pytest
