Datasette plugin for outputting tables in formats suitable for copy and paste

## Installation

Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.

    $ pip install datasette-copyable

## Demo

You can try this plugin on [fivethirtyeight.datasettes.com](https://fivethirtyeight.datasettes.com/) - browse for tables or queries there and look for the "copyable" link. Here's an example for a table of [airline safety data](https://fivethirtyeight.datasettes.com/fivethirtyeight/airline-safety~2Fairline-safety.copyable).

## Usage

This plugin adds a `.copyable` output extension to every table, view and query.

Navigating to this page will show an interface allowing you to select a format for copying and pasting the demo. The default is TSV, which is suitable for copying into Google Sheets or Excel.

You can add `?_raw=1` to get back just the raw data.

## Development

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

    cd datasette-copyable
    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
