Release announcement: Mathesar v0.2.2
Zack Krida
Hi everyone! We’re excited to announce Mathesar 0.2.2. This release improves primary key handling, adds a new UUID type, and adds paste support to streamline data editing. There are also a number of small bug fixes and improvements.
Check out our release notes for the full details, including installation instructions. Here are some highlights:
- More control over primary keys – You can now set any column as a primary key during imports and table creation, and Mathesar’s generated primary keys can now be configured to use UUIDs as well as integers.
- Paste functionality – Copy data and paste it into other rows and/or columns. You can also copy-paste multiple cells from a variety of other spreadsheet applications directly into Mathesar.
- Insert records when primary keys lack default values – No more workarounds needed for manually assigned IDs. Enter primary key column values during inserts.
It’s early days for Mathesar’s beta and we’re aiming to increase our production usage. We would really appreciate it if you could try this release and share your thoughts on how Mathesar is working for you.

Or if you’d prefer to provide feedback in written form, you can send me a direct message in Matrix or email he...@mathesar.org. Thank you!
Thank you!
