docs: cut 6.1.0 versions for docs, admin_docs, developer_docs, components

Snapshots all four versioned Docusaurus sections at v6.1.0. Built on
top of the version-cutting tooling work in chore/docs-cut-6.1.0-versions
so the snapshot benefits from:

- Auto-gen refresh before snapshotting (database pages from engine
  spec metadata, API reference from openapi.json, component pages
  from Storybook stories) — captured at the SHA we cut from rather
  than whatever happened to be on disk.
- Data-import freeze: country list, feature flag table, database
  diagnostics, and component metadata are copied into snapshot-local
  `_versioned_data/` dirs so the historical version doesn't silently
  mutate when the source files change.
- Depth-aware import-path rewriter that handles deeply-nested
  component MDX files referencing `../../../src/` from the snapshot.

Versioning behavior: `lastVersion` stays at `current` for every
section, so the canonical URLs (`/docs/...`, `/admin-docs/...`,
`/developer-docs/...`, `/components/...`) continue to render content
from master. The `current` version is consistently labeled "Next"
with an `unreleased` banner, and `6.1.0` is a historical pin
accessible only via its explicit version segment.

Component playground: previously `disabled: true` in versions-config.json,
now enabled and versioned. The plugin block in docusaurus.config.ts
was already gated only by the `disabled` flag, so no other code
changes were needed to bring it back online.

The frozen `databases.json` in the snapshot is the canonical 80-database
artifact from the latest committed state in master (preserved by the
generator's input-hash cache), not a fallback regenerated from a
local Flask environment.

# Backend Style Guidelines
This is a list of statements that describe how we do backend development in Superset. While they might not be 100% true for all files in the repo, they represent the gold standard we strive towards for backend quality and style.
- We use a monolithic Python/Flask/Flask-AppBuilder backend, with small single-responsibility satellite services where necessary.
- Files are generally organized by feature or object type. Within each domain, we can have api controllers, models, schemas, commands, and data access objects (DAO).
- See: [Proposal for Improving Superset's Python Code Organization](https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/9077)
- API controllers use Marshmallow Schemas to serialize/deserialize data.
- Authentication and authorization are controlled by the [security manager](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/master/superset/security/manager).
- We use Pytest for unit and integration tests. These live in the `tests` directory.
- We add tests for every new piece of functionality added to the backend.
- We use pytest fixtures to share setup between tests.
- We use SQLAlchemy to access both Superset's application database, and users' analytics databases.
- We make changes backwards compatible whenever possible.
- If a change cannot be made backwards compatible, it goes into a major release.
- See: [Proposal For Semantic Versioning](https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/12566)
- We use Swagger for API documentation, with docs written inline on the API endpoint code.
- We prefer thin ORM models, putting shared functionality in other utilities.
- Several linters/checkers are used to maintain consistent code style and type safety: pylint, mypy, black, isort.
- `__init__.py` files are kept empty to avoid implicit dependencies.
## Code Organization
### Domain-Driven Structure
Organize code by business domain rather than technical layers:
```
superset/
├── dashboards/
│ ├── api.py # API endpoints
│ ├── commands/ # Business logic
│ ├── dao.py # Data access layer
│ ├── models.py # Database models
│ └── schemas.py # Serialization schemas
├── charts/
│ ├── api.py
│ ├── commands/
│ ├── dao.py
│ ├── models.py
│ └── schemas.py
```
### API Controllers
Use Flask-AppBuilder with Marshmallow schemas:
```python
from flask_appbuilder.api import BaseApi
from marshmallow import Schema, fields
class DashboardSchema(Schema):
id = fields.Integer()
dashboard_title = fields.String(required=True)
created_on = fields.DateTime(dump_only=True)
class DashboardApi(BaseApi):
resource_name = "dashboard"
openapi_spec_tag = "Dashboards"
@expose("/", methods=["GET"])
@protect()
@safe
def get_list(self) -> Response:
"""Get a list of dashboards"""
# Implementation
```
### Commands Pattern
Use commands for business logic:
```python
from typing import Optional
from superset.commands.base import BaseCommand
from superset.dashboards.dao import DashboardDAO
class CreateDashboardCommand(BaseCommand):
def __init__(self, properties: Dict[str, Any]):
self._properties = properties
def run(self) -> Dashboard:
self.validate()
return DashboardDAO.create(self._properties)
def validate(self) -> None:
if not self._properties.get("dashboard_title"):
raise ValidationError("Title is required")
```
### Data Access Objects (DAOs)
See: [DAO Style Guidelines and Best Practices](./backend/dao-style-guidelines)
## Testing
### Unit Tests
```python
import pytest
from unittest.mock import patch
from superset.dashboards.commands.create import CreateDashboardCommand
def test_create_dashboard_success():
properties = {
"dashboard_title": "Test Dashboard",
"owners": [1]
}
command = CreateDashboardCommand(properties)
dashboard = command.run()
assert dashboard.dashboard_title == "Test Dashboard"
def test_create_dashboard_validation_error():
properties = {} # Missing required title
command = CreateDashboardCommand(properties)
with pytest.raises(ValidationError):
command.run()
```
### Integration Tests
```python
import pytest
from superset.app import create_app
from superset.extensions import db
@pytest.fixture
def app():
app = create_app()
app.config["TESTING"] = True
with app.app_context():
db.create_all()
yield app
db.drop_all()
def test_dashboard_api_create(app, auth_headers):
with app.test_client() as client:
response = client.post(
"/api/v1/dashboard/",
json={"dashboard_title": "Test Dashboard"},
headers=auth_headers
)
assert response.status_code == 201
```
## Security
### Authorization Decorators
```python
from flask_appbuilder.security.decorators import has_access
class DashboardApi(BaseApi):
@expose("/", methods=["POST"])
@protect()
@has_access("can_write", "Dashboard")
def post(self) -> Response:
"""Create a new dashboard"""
# Implementation
```
### Input Validation
```python
from marshmallow import Schema, fields, validate
class DashboardSchema(Schema):
dashboard_title = fields.String(
required=True,
validate=validate.Length(min=1, max=500)
)
slug = fields.String(
validate=validate.Regexp(r'^[a-z0-9-]+$')
)
```
## Database Operations
### Use SQLAlchemy ORM
```python
from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer, String, Text
from superset.models.helpers import AuditMixinNullable
class Dashboard(Model, AuditMixinNullable):
__tablename__ = "dashboards"
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
dashboard_title = Column(String(500))
position_json = Column(Text)
def __repr__(self) -> str:
return f"<Dashboard {self.dashboard_title}>"
```
### Database Migrations
```python
# migration file
def upgrade():
op.add_column(
"dashboards",
sa.Column("new_column", sa.String(255), nullable=True)
)
def downgrade():
op.drop_column("dashboards", "new_column")
```
## Error Handling
### Custom Exceptions
```python
class SupersetException(Exception):
"""Base exception for Superset"""
pass
class ValidationError(SupersetException):
"""Raised when validation fails"""
pass
class SecurityException(SupersetException):
"""Raised when security check fails"""
pass
```
### Error Responses
```python
from flask import jsonify
from werkzeug.exceptions import BadRequest
@app.errorhandler(ValidationError)
def handle_validation_error(error):
return jsonify({
"message": str(error),
"error_type": "VALIDATION_ERROR"
}), 400
```
## Type Hints and Documentation
### Use Type Hints
```python
from typing import List, Optional, Dict, Any
from superset.models.dashboard import Dashboard
def get_dashboards_by_owner(owner_id: int) -> List[Dashboard]:
"""Get all dashboards owned by a specific user"""
return db.session.query(Dashboard).filter_by(owner_id=owner_id).all()
def create_dashboard(properties: Dict[str, Any]) -> Optional[Dashboard]:
"""Create a new dashboard with the given properties"""
# Implementation
```
### API Documentation
```python
from flask_appbuilder.api import BaseApi
from flask_appbuilder.api.schemas import get_list_schema
class DashboardApi(BaseApi):
@expose("/", methods=["GET"])
@protect()
@safe
def get_list(self) -> Response:
"""Get a list of dashboards
---
get:
description: >-
Get a list of dashboards
parameters:
- in: query
schema:
type: integer
name: page_size
description: Number of results per page
responses:
200:
description: Success
content:
application/json:
schema:
$ref: '#/components/schemas/DashboardListResponse'
"""
# Implementation
```
