Joshen Lim 38fa40e851 Joshenlim/fe 4445 explorer export as pdf option 2 (#50786)
## Context

Another take on [this
PR](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/pull/50733), decided that it's
better UX + DX to use a PDF library (`@react-pdf/renderer`) instead for
handling exporting Notebooks to PDF. The previous method using `print`
involved a lot of sparse patching in various places + had a lot of
limitations, not to mention its awkward UX to "Print".

There's a lot of code changes in this PR but it's because we're
constructing the PDF document based on the notebook's contents using
primitives from `@react-pdf/renderer` which gives us a lot more control
over the PDF's output.

PDF output will differ slightly from the Notebook UI in the browser
- Added a custom header in the report which covers the notebook name +
project name, and when its exported
- Empty markdown cells are skipped
- Query cells will show both SQL content + results (either table or
chart)
- Opting to skip syntax highlighting for SQL content (Can consider
separately)
- Results will only be included in the PDF if the notebook's been run
(Aligns with Copy as Markdown CTA)
- For table results, _all_ rows will be rendered (Aligns with Copy as
Markdown CTA)

Feel free to give it a spin! 🙂 🙏

Supabase Studio

A dashboard for managing your self-hosted Supabase project, and used on our hosted platform. Built with:

What's included

Studio is designed to work with existing deployments - either the local hosted, docker setup, or our CLI. It is not intended for managing the deployment and administration of projects - that's out of scope.

As such, the features exposed on Studio for existing deployments are limited to those which manage your database:

  • Table & SQL editors
    • Saved queries are unavailable
  • Database management
    • Policies, roles, extensions, replication
  • API documentation

Managing Project Settings

Project settings are managed outside of the Dashboard. If you use docker compose, you should manage the settings in your docker-compose file. If you're deploying Supabase to your own cloud, you should store your secrets and env vars in a vault or secrets manager.

How to contribute?

  • Branch from master and name your branches with the following structure
    • {type}/{branch_name}
      • Type: chore | fix | feature
      • The branch name is arbitrary — just make sure it summarizes the work.
  • When you send a PR to master, it will automatically tag members of the frontend team for review.
  • Review the main contributing guide to help test your feature before sending a PR.
  • The Dashboard is under active development. You should run git pull frequently to make sure you're up to date.

Developer Quickstart

Note

Supabase internal use: To develop on Studio locally with the backend services, see the instructions in the internal infrastructure repo.

# You'll need to be on Node v22
# in /studio

## For external contributors
pnpm install # install dependencies
pnpm run dev # start dev server

## For internal contributors
## First clone the private supabase/platform repo and follow instructions for setting up mise
mise studio  # Run from supabase/platform alongside `mise infra`

## For all
pnpm run test # run tests
pnpm run test -- --watch # run tests in watch mode

Running within a self-hosted environment

Follow the self-hosting guide to get started.

cd ..
cd docker
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f ./dev/docker-compose.dev.yml up

Once you've got that set up, update .env in the studio folder with the corresponding values.

POSTGRES_PASSWORD=
SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=
SUPABASE_SERVICE_KEY=

Then run the following commands to install dependencies and start the dashboard.

npm install
npm run dev

If you would like to configure different defaults for "Default Organization" and "Default Project", you will need to update the .env in the studio folder with the corresponding values.

DEFAULT_ORGANIZATION_NAME=
DEFAULT_PROJECT_NAME=
