Plugin allowing Datasette templates to be edited within Datasette.

## Installation

Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.

    $ datasette install datasette-edit-templates

## Usage

On startup. a `_templates_` table will be created in the database you are running Datasette against.

Use the app menu to navigate to the `/-/edit-templates` page, and edit templates there.

Changes should become visible instantly, and will be persisted to your database.

The interface is only available to users with the `edit-templates` permission.

The `root` user is granted this permission by default. You can sign in as the root user using `datasette mydb.db --root`.

## Development

To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:

    cd datasette-edit-templates
    python3 -mvenv venv
    source venv/bin/activate

Or if you are using `pipenv`:

    pipenv shell

Now install the dependencies and tests:

    pip install -e '.[test]'

To run the tests:

    pytest
