Supabase client for Python. This mirrors the design of supabase-js
- Alpha: We are testing Supabase with a closed set of customers
- Public Alpha: Anyone can sign up over at app.supabase.io. But go easy on us, there are a few kinks.
- Public Beta: Stable enough for most non-enterprise use-cases
- Public: Production-ready
We are currently in Public Alpha. Watch "releases" of this repo to get notified of major updates.
Recomended: First activate your virtual environment, with your favourites system. For example, we like poetry
and conda
!
Now install the package. (for > Python 3.7)
pip install supabase
You can also installing from after cloning this repo. Install like below to install in Development Mode, which means when you edit the source code the changes will be reflected in your python module.
pip install -e .
It's usually best practice to set your api key environment variables in some way that version control doesn't track them, e.g don't put them in your python modules! Set the key and url for the supabase instance in the shell, or better yet, use a dotenv file. Heres how to set the variables in the shell.
export SUPABASE_URL="my-url-to-my-awesome-supabase-instance"
export SUPABASE_KEY="my-supa-dupa-secret-supabase-api-key"
We can then read the keys in the python source code.
import os
from supabase import create_client, Client
url: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_URL")
key: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_KEY")
supabase: Client = create_client(url, key)
Use the supabase client to interface with your database.
Currently the test suites are in a state of flux. We are expanding our clients tests to ensure things are working, and for now can connect to this test instance, that is populated with the following table:
The above test database is a blank supabase instance that has populated the countries
table with the built in countries script that can be found in the supabase UI. You can launch the test scripts and point to the above test database by running
./test.sh
Rough roadmap:
- Wrap Postgrest-py
- Wrap Realtime-py
- Wrap Gotrue-py
This is a sample of how you'd use supabase-py. Functions and tests are WIP
from supabase import create_client, Client
url: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_URL")
key: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_KEY")
supabase: Client = create_client(url, key)
# Create a random user login email and password.
random_email: str = "[email protected]"
random_password: str = "fqj13bnf2hiu23h"
user = supabase.auth.sign_up(email=random_email, password=random_password)
from supabase import create_client, Client
url: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_URL")
key: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_KEY")
supabase: Client = create_client(url, key)
# Sign in using the user email and password.
random_email: str = "[email protected]"
random_password: str = "fqj13bnf2hiu23h"
user = supabase.auth.sign_in(email=random_email, password=random_password)
from supabase import create_client, Client
url: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_URL")
key: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_KEY")
supabase: Client = create_client(url, key)
data = supabase.table("countries").insert({"name":"Germany"}).execute()
assert len(data.data) > 0
from supabase import create_client, Client
url: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_URL")
key: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_KEY")
supabase: Client = create_client(url, key)
data = supabase.table("countries").select("*").execute()
# Assert we pulled real data.
assert len(data.data) > 0
from supabase import create_client, Client
url: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_URL")
key: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_KEY")
supabase: Client = create_client(url, key)
data = supabase.table("countries").update({"country": "Indonesia", "capital_city": "Jakarta"}).eq("id", 1).execute()
from supabase import create_client, Client
url: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_URL")
key: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_TEST_KEY")
supabase: Client = create_client(url, key)
data = supabase.table("countries").delete().eq("id", 1).execute()
Realtime changes are unfortunately still a WIP. Feel free to file PRs to realtime-py
