Replacebase – library to migrate away from Supabase

Hey folks! There has been a lot of talk recently about the reliability of Supabase and migrating away to other database providers (or even hosting Postgres yourself). I'm a big proponent of writing actual backend code rather than locking yourself into frameworks like Supabase. If you already built all your client-side code around it though, then migrating is not a trivial task. Replacebase is designed to help with that. It's a Typescript library that you can plug into actual backend code that exposes a Supabase-compatible API so that you don't have to make significant changes to your…

What it does

Typescript library to help you migrate away from Supabase - specific-dev/replacebase

Replacebase is a library to help you migrate away from Supabase over to backend infrastructure that you control. It's a simple Typescript library that wraps your Postgres database and S3 storage, and exposes a Supabase-compatible API. This means you don't have to change any frontend logic and can unify all your backend code for a simpler architecture. npm install @specific.dev/replacebase Getting started For this guide, we will use your existing Postgres database and Supabase-provided S3-storage and connect Replacebase. On your backend, initialise Replacebase with the details from step 1. // server.ts import { createReplacebase } from "replacebase" ; const replacebase = await…from github.com

    Hey HN! I built Typebase, a library that gives you Convex's DX with Supabase's openness. After trying Supabase I liked how fast it is to spin up a DB and auth, but really didn't like using RLS and SQL for authorization. With Convex I loved how your server "lives" in your code, but disliked the DB model and the realtime-first defaults. With Typebase you just write TS files inside a typebase/ folder in your existing repo. You can define your DB tables inside a schema.ts file and export server functions that your frontend calls like local functions, fully typed. Auth is built in. Then one…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
