Release

datasette-agent-charts 0.1a1 — Observable Plot charts for Datasette Agent

More color! Bar and waffle charts without a color column are shaded by magnitude with a sequential color scheme; color columns holding text values use the observable10 categorical scheme. #2

Now checks execute-sql permission before running the query to find the column names.

Charts now display interactive tooltips.

Fixed a bug where waffleY charts were not described to the agent.
