Supabase – General Availability Week
hey hn, supabase ceo her
we just announced GA, after ~4 years of beta. for those who don't know: supabase is a postgres hosting company. we also host other open source "backend" tools that make it easy to get started with postgres (tools like PostgREST for auto-generate APIs [0])
we owe a lot to the HN community. you launched us 4 years ago [1], when we were just a few developers. since then HN has been a staple in our journey, one of the best sources of product feedback [2]
the GA badge is mostly to signify organizational readiness. we're at a stage where we can take any profile of customer. we have a support team that works 24/7, and a success team that will help customers improve their postgres usage. we released our Index Advisor [3] yesterday, and we'll be releasing a few more products this week that helps customer with performance and security.
on a personal note: i read HN most days, and love going through the ShowHN's to see what devs are building. thanks for being an awesome community and my favorite place to lurk on the internet. i'll stick around to answer any questions

The Many Ways Not to Build an API
If you use PostgreSQL and are proficient with using its row-level security feature, you can choose from several tools/services built above RLS, including Supabase, PostgREST, and PostGraphile. They all provide a way to expose database CRUD as a web API, assuming you've configured the RLS rules to properly secure the access.

Build a simple project management app with Neon, PostgREST, and DigitalOcean

Single Software Developer Projects
SupaBase is entirely based upon PostgREST. In fact, PostgREST is arguably 49% of their value proposition according to their own website. The other 49% is PostgreSQL. PostgreSQL of course is a super mature database, and some would argue the best RDBMS on the planet, so let's ignore that part for a moment, and consider it a mature thing and move on to PostgREST.

Oink: An API for PHP in a single file
You don't need this PHP snippet:
To get the same functionality without the extra step, simply use PostgREST [1]

Use PostgREST and HTMX to Build RESTful APIs from PostgreSQL Databases
PostgREST is a standalone web server that turns your PostgreSQL database into a RESTful API using the database's structural constraints and permissions to define the API's endpoints and operations. In this tutorial, you will create a simple note-taking app by leveraging PostgREST to construct a RESTful API for the app and using htmx to deliver HTML content.

We built our customer data warehouse all on Postgres
You might find some info in the docs of PostgREST [1] or in the previous discussions on HN about it [2].
For the versioning, I just have a git repo where I keep every role, schema, table, view, function, trigger, etc. definitions. Every time I change something in the database I first change it in the git repo too to have an history.

Pandoc
Don't know if you would call this a "program" but PostgREST is written is Haskell too.

A Technical Dive into PostgreSQL's replication mechanisms
You can LISTEN/NOTIFY. Or you can use logical replication and a custom subscriber.[1] Supabase uses the latter.[2]

Supabase Studio: AI Assistant and User Impersonation
Supabase Realtime is great for building collaborative applications. You can receive database changes over websockets, store and synchronize data about user presence, and broadcast any data to clients via "channels".
-
Unpacking Elixir: Observability
We use :telemetry to collect usage data per tenant for Supabase Realtime.
We do this for rate limiting but it also makes it very easy for us to attach a listener (https://github.com/supabase/realtime/blob/main/lib/realtime/...) which ships these (per second) aggregates to BigQuery (via Logflare), which then the billing team can aggregate further to display and actually bill people with.

All the ways to capture changes in Postgres
Yo :D This is what Supabase Realtime does!
https://github.com/supabase/realtime
Spin up a Supabase database and then subscribe to changes with WebSockets.
You can play with it here once you have a db: https://realtime.supabase.com/inspector/new

Supabase Local Dev: migrations, branching, and observability
Every project is a Postgres database, wrapped in a suite of tools like Auth, Storage, Edge Functions, Realtime and Vectors, and encompassed by API middleware and logs.

Writing a chat application in Django 4.2 using async StreamingHttpResponse
Where can I learn more about this? I've been thinking of trying to integrate Supabase Realtime (https://github.com/supabase/realtime) into my Django app (without the rest of Supabase), but I'd also like to keep things even simpler if possible.
Also, what was the reason not to go with Gevent?

How To Kill A Fly With A Shotgun
As a minor note, one of the linked articles talks about having used RethinkDB for its changefeeds and I made a mental note a bit back that if I ever want that supabase's realtime ( https://github.com/supabase/realtime ) provides something rather like that atop Postgres and I should try that before doing anything clever.
