Enable a limited form of table-valued functions.

## Installation

Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.

    datasette install datasette-ersatz-table-valued-functions

## Usage

Write a plugin that registers a table-valued function in the `startup` hook:

```python
from datasette import hookimpl
from datasette_ersatz_table_valued_functions import create_table_function

def tbl_squares(n):
    return [(i, i*i) for i in range(n)]

@hookimpl
def startup():
    create_table_function('tbl_squares', 1, tbl_squares, ['root', 'square'])
```

You can then query this in Datasette:

```sql
SELECT root FROM tbl_squares(10) WHERE square % 2 = 0 AND square < 50
```

will emit 0, 2, 4, 6.

## Development

To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:

    cd datasette-ersatz-table-valued-functions
    python3 -m venv venv
    source venv/bin/activate

Now install the dependencies and test dependencies:

    pip install -e '.[test]'

To run the tests:

    pytest
