Summary

  • Replace the removed load: on_demand section with documentation for the new deferred dataset initialization feature
  • Update the ready_state section to cross-reference deferred initialization when combined with columns[].type

Source PRs

Changes

  • website/docs/reference/spicepod/datasets.md: Replaced the ## load section (documenting the removed load: on_demand option) with a ## Deferred dataset initialization section that documents the new approach using ready_state: on_registration + fully declared columns[].type. Added a breaking change warning. Updated the ready_state section to mention deferred initialization.

Test plan

  • Verified the breaking change warning is prominent
  • Links are valid (cross-references within the same page)
  • Only vNext docs updated (feature is new, not present in versioned docs)

`load: on_demand` has been removed from the runtime (spiceai/spiceai#10669).
The replacement is `ready_state: on_registration` combined with explicit
`columns[].type` declarations, which enables deferred initialization —
the source connector is not created until the first query references the
dataset.
