Datasette Files Plugin Adds File Uploads
An alpha release of the datasette-files plugin adds direct file upload support to Datasette, enabling multiple file uploads and automatic CSV/TSV import. It adopts Datasette 1.0a26's column_types, introduces a file_actions plugin hook, a JSON upload API, and generates image thumbnails stored in a datasette_files_thumbnails table. These changes simplify ingesting files and integrating uploaded data into Datasette tables.
