Supabase refine User Management
This repo is a quick sample of how you can get started building apps using refine and Supabase: users can sign up with a magic link and then update their account with public profile information, including a profile image.
About refine
refine is a React-based framework for building data-intensive applications in no time ✨
refine offers lots of out-of-the box functionality for rapid development, without compromising extreme customizability. Use-cases include, but are not limited to admin panels, B2B applications and dashboards.
- To learn more about refine, please check out the Documentation
- Step up to refine tutorials.
Available Scripts
Running the development server.
npm run dev
Building for production.
npm run build
Build from scratch
1. Create new project
Sign up to Supabase - https://app.supabase.com and create a new project. Wait for your database to start.
2. Run "User Management" Quickstart
Once your database has started, head over to your project's SQL Editor
and run the "User Management Starter" quickstart. On the SQL editor
page, scroll down until you see User Management Starter: Sets up a public Profiles table which you can access with your API
. Click that, then click RUN
to execute that query and create a new profiles
table. When that's finished, head over to the Table Editor
and see your new profiles
table.
3. Get the URL and Key
Go to the Project Settings (the cog icon), open the API tab, and find your API URL and anon
key, you'll need these in the next step.
The anon
key is your client-side API key. It allows "anonymous access" to your database, until the user has logged in. Once they have logged in, the keys will switch to the user's own login token. This enables row level security for your data. Read more about this below.
NOTE: The service_role
key has full access to your data, bypassing any security policies. These keys have to be kept secret and are meant to be used in server environments and never on a client or browser.
4. Env vars
Create a file in this folder .env.local
VITE_SUPABASE_URL=YOUR_SUPABASE_URL
VITE_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=YOUR_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY
Populate this file with your URL and Key.
5. Run the application
Run the application: npm run dev
. Open your browser to https://localhost:5173/
and you are ready to go 🚀.
Supabase details
Postgres Row level security
This project uses very high-level Authorization using Postgres' Row Level Security.
When you start a Postgres database on Supabase, we populate it with an auth
schema, and some helper functions.
When a user logs in, they are issued a JWT with the role authenticated
and their UUID.
We can use these details to provide fine-grained control over what each user can and cannot do.
This is a trimmed-down schema, with the policies:
-- Create a table for Public Profiles
create table profiles (
id uuid references auth.users not null,
updated_at timestamp with time zone,
username text unique,
avatar_url text,
website text,
primary key (id),
unique(username),
constraint username_length check (char_length(username) >= 3)
);
alter table profiles enable row level security;
create policy "Public profiles are viewable by everyone."
on profiles for select
using ( true );
create policy "Users can insert their own profile."
on profiles for insert
with check ( (select auth.uid()) = id );
create policy "Users can update own profile."
on profiles for update
using ( (select auth.uid()) = id );
-- Set up Realtime!
begin;
drop publication if exists supabase_realtime;
create publication supabase_realtime;
commit;
alter publication supabase_realtime add table profiles;
-- Set up Storage!
insert into storage.buckets (id, name)
values ('avatars', 'avatars');
create policy "Avatar images are publicly accessible."
on storage.objects for select
using ( bucket_id = 'avatars' );
create policy "Anyone can upload an avatar."
on storage.objects for insert
with check ( bucket_id = 'avatars' );
