plugins:id1	plugins	id1	Plugins	Datasette's plugin system allows additional features to be implemented as Python code (or front-end JavaScript) which can be wrapped up in a separate Python package. The underlying mechanism uses pluggy . See the Datasette plugins directory for a list of existing plugins, or take a look at the datasette-plugin topic on GitHub. Things you can do with plugins include: Add visualizations to Datasette, for example datasette-cluster-map and datasette-vega . Make new custom SQL functions available for use within Datasette, for example datasette-haversine and datasette-jellyfish . Define custom output formats with custom extensions, for example datasette-atom and datasette-ics . Add template functions that can be called within your Jinja custom templates, for example datasette-render-markdown . Customize how database values are rendered in the Datasette interface, for example datasette-render-binary and datasette-pretty-json . Customize how Datasette's authentication and permissions systems work, for example datasette-auth-tokens and datasette-permissions-sql .
