datasette-horizontal-scroll
A Datasette plugin that adds a fixed horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of the viewport when a visible results table is wider than the screen. This makes it easier to horizontally navigate wide tables without needing to hit the native scrollbar on the table itself.
Installation
Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette:
datasette install datasette-horizontal-scroll
This plugin depends on Datasette 0.58+ (it uses datasette.urls.static_plugins() for serving static assets).
Usage
Install the plugin and reload Datasette. On table, query, database, and row views, a bottom-of-viewport scrollbar will appear when the active table overflows horizontally.
This plugin serves its assets as packaged static files (CSS/JS) under Datasette's /-/static-plugins/ mechanism.
Development
Clone the repository and run the tests:
pip install -e ".[dev]"
pytest
If you use uv, you can equivalently run:
uv run pytest
