Supabase Integration for SQLAlchemy Async Projects
This skill provides comprehensive integration patterns for using SQLAlchemy with Supabase, including async engine configuration, authentication setup, connection pooling, and performance optimizations.
Integration Overview
Configure SQLAlchemy to work seamlessly with Supabase PostgreSQL databases while maintaining async performance, proper authentication, and connection management optimizations for serverless environments.
Supabase Engine Configuration
Async Engine Setup
Configure SQLAlchemy async engine for Supabase:
from sqlalchemy.ext.asyncio import AsyncSession, create_async_engine, async_sessionmaker
from sqlalchemy.orm import DeclarativeBase, sessionmaker
import os
# Supabase connection string
SUPABASE_URL = f"postgresql+asyncpg://postgres.{SUPABASE_PROJECT_ID}:{SUPABASE_PASSWORD}@aws-0-{SUPABASE_REGION}.pooler.supabase.com:6543/postgres"
# Async engine optimized for Supabase
engine = create_async_engine(
SUPABASE_URL,
echo=True,
pool_size=20,
max_overflow=0,
pool_pre_ping=True,
pool_recycle=300,
connect_args={
"server_settings": {
"application_name": "fastapi_supabase_app",
"search_path": "public, extensions"
}
}
)
# Async session factory
AsyncSessionFactory = async_sessionmaker(
engine,
class_=AsyncSession,
expire_on_commit=False
)
Environment-Based Configuration
Set up flexible configuration for different environments:
# config/database.py
from pydantic_settings import BaseSettings
from typing import Optional
class DatabaseSettings(BaseSettings):
supabase_url: str
supabase_key: str
supabase_service_key: Optional[str] = None
pool_size: int = 10
max_overflow: int = 0
class Config:
env_prefix = "DB_"
case_sensitive = False
@property
def async_url(self) -> str:
return self.supabase_url.replace("postgresql://", "postgresql+asyncpg://")
# Dependency injection for FastAPI
async def get_db_session() -> AsyncSession:
async with AsyncSessionFactory() as session:
try:
yield session
await session.commit()
except Exception:
await session.rollback()
raise
finally:
await session.close()
Authentication Integration
Row Level Security (RLS) Integration
Handle Supabase RLS with SQLAlchemy:
from fastapi import Request, HTTPException
from fastapi.security import HTTPBearer, HTTPAuthorizationCredentials
import jwt
security = HTTPBearer()
async def get_supabase_user(request: Request) -> dict:
"""Extract and validate Supabase JWT token"""
authorization = request.headers.get("Authorization")
if not authorization or not authorization.startswith("Bearer "):
raise HTTPException(status_code=401, detail="Missing or invalid token")
token = authorization.split(" ")[1]
try:
# Decode Supabase JWT
payload = jwt.decode(
token,
SUPABASE_JWT_SECRET,
algorithms=["HS256"],
options={"verify_aud": False}
)
return payload
except jwt.ExpiredSignatureError:
raise HTTPException(status_code=401, detail="Token expired")
except jwt.InvalidTokenError:
raise HTTPException(status_code=401, detail="Invalid token")
async def get_db_with_auth(request: Request) -> AsyncSession:
"""Get database session with RLS context"""
session = AsyncSessionFactory()
# Set RLS user context
user = await get_supabase_user(request)
await session.execute(
text("SET request.jwt.claims.user_id = :user_id"),
{"user_id": user.get("sub")}
)
await session.execute(
text("SET request.jwt.claims.role = :role"),
{"role": user.get("role", "authenticated")}
)
return session
Service Key Integration
Use Supabase service key for admin operations:
from supabase import create_client, Client
class SupabaseAdminClient:
def __init__(self, supabase_url: str, service_key: str):
self.supabase: Client = create_client(supabase_url, service_key)
async def upload_file(self, bucket: str, path: str, file_content: bytes) -> dict:
"""Upload file to Supabase Storage"""
return self.supabase.storage.from_(bucket).upload(path, file_content)
async def sign_url(self, bucket: str, path: str, expires_in: int = 3600) -> str:
"""Generate signed URL for file access"""
return self.supabase.storage.from_(bucket).create_signed_url(path, expires_in)
# FastAPI dependency
async def get_supabase_admin() -> SupabaseAdminClient:
return SupabaseAdminClient(SUPABASE_URL, SUPABASE_SERVICE_KEY)
Performance Optimization
Connection Pooling for Serverless
Optimize for Supabase connection limits:
# config/pooling.py
from sqlalchemy.ext.asyncio import create_async_engine
from sqlalchemy.pool import QueuePool
import asyncio
class SupabaseEngineManager:
def __init__(self, supabase_url: str, max_connections: int = 20):
self.engine = create_async_engine(
supabase_url,
poolclass=QueuePool,
pool_size=max_connections - 5, # Leave room for admin connections
max_overflow=5,
pool_pre_ping=True,
pool_recycle=300, # 5 minutes
pool_timeout=30,
connect_args={
"command_timeout": 10,
"server_settings": {
"application_name": "fastapi_supabase_app",
"jit": "off" # Disable JIT for serverless
}
}
)
self._background_heartbeater = None
async def start_heartbeat(self):
"""Keep connections alive in serverless environments"""
async def heartbeat():
while True:
await asyncio.sleep(240) # 4 minutes
async with self.engine.connect() as conn:
await conn.execute(text("SELECT 1"))
self._background_heartbeater = asyncio.create_task(heartbeat())
async def stop_heartbeat(self):
if self._background_heartbeater:
self._background_heartbeater.cancel()
try:
await self._background_heartbeater
except asyncio.CancelledError:
pass
Lazy Loading Implementation
Implement efficient lazy loading for large schemas:
from sqlalchemy.ext.asyncio import AsyncSession
from sqlalchemy import select, text
from typing import Type, TypeVar, Generic
from pydantic import BaseModel
T = TypeVar('T')
class LazyLoader(Generic[T]):
def __init__(self, model: Type[T], session: AsyncSession):
self.model = model
self.session = session
self._loaded = None
self._query = None
def where(self, *criteria):
"""Add where conditions to query"""
self._query = select(self.model).where(*criteria)
return self
async def load(self) -> list[T]:
"""Execute the query and cache results"""
if self._loaded is None:
if self._query is None:
self._query = select(self.model)
result = await self.session.execute(self._query)
self._loaded = result.scalars().all()
return self._loaded
async def first(self) -> T | None:
"""Load first result only"""
if self._query is None:
self._query = select(self.model)
result = await self.session.execute(self._query.limit(1))
return result.scalar_one_or_none()
# Usage in FastAPI endpoints
@app.get("/users/{user_id}")
async def get_user(user_id: int, session: AsyncSession = Depends(get_db_session)):
lazy_users = LazyLoader(User, session)
user = await lazy_users.where(User.id == user_id).first()
if not user:
raise HTTPException(status_code=404, detail="User not found")
return user
Model Generation
Supabase Schema Reflection
Generate SQLAlchemy models from Supabase schema:
from sqlalchemy.ext.asyncio import AsyncEngine
from sqlalchemy import inspect, text
from sqlalchemy.orm import DeclarativeBase
from typing import Dict, List
async def reflect_supabase_schema(engine: AsyncEngine, schema: str = "public") -> Dict[str, dict]:

if column_name.endswith("_id"):

relationships.append(

Usage Instructions
To integrate Supabase with SQLAlchemy:
- Configure async engine: Set up SQLAlchemy async engine with Supabase connection string
- Implement authentication: Handle JWT tokens and RLS policies
- Optimize connection pooling: Configure for serverless environments
- Generate models: Use schema reflection to create SQLAlchemy models
- Test integration: Validate queries and authentication work correctly
Error Handling
Supabase-Specific Errors
Handle Supabase-specific error scenarios:
from sqlalchemy.exc import SQLAlchemyError, OperationalError, InterfaceError
async def handle_supabase_errors(func):
"""Decorator for handling Supabase-specific errors"""
async def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
try:
return await func(*args, **kwargs)
except OperationalError as e:
if "connection" in str(e).lower():
# Retry connection errors
await asyncio.sleep(1)
return await func(*args, **kwargs)
raise
except SQLAlchemyError as e:
logger.error(f"Supabase database error: {e}")
raise
return wrapper
