datasette-python. I just released a small new plugin for Datasette to assist with debugging. It adds a python
subcommand which runs a Python process in the same virtual environment as Datasette itself.
I built it initially to help debug some issues in Datasette installed via Homebrew. The Homebrew installation has its own virtual environment, and sometimes it can be useful to run commands like pip list
in the same environment as Datasette itself.
Now you can do this:
brew install datasette
datasette install datasette-python
datasette python -m pip list
I built a similar plugin for LLM last year, called llm-python - it's proved useful enough that I duplicated the design for Datasette.
