        Datasette plugin for modifying table schemas
        
        ## Features
        
        * Add new columns to a table
        * Rename columns in a table
        * Modify the type of columns in a table
        * Re-order the columns in a table
        * Rename a table
        * Delete a table
        
        ## Installation
        
        Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.
        
            $ pip install datasette-edit-schema
        
        ## Usage
        
        Navigate to `/-/edit-schema/dbname/tablename` on your Datasette instance to edit a specific table.
        
        Use `/-/edit-schema/dbname` to create a new table in a specific database.
        
        By default only [the root actor](https://datasette.readthedocs.io/en/stable/authentication.html#using-the-root-actor) can access the page - so you'll need to run Datasette with the `--root` option and click on the link shown in the terminal to sign in and access the page.
        
        The `edit-schema` permission governs access. You can use permission plugins such as [datasette-permissions-sql](https://github.com/simonw/datasette-permissions-sql) to grant additional access to the write interface.

        ## Development
        
        To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:
        
            cd datasette-edit-schema
            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
