Danny WhiteandJoshen Lim 66c48753e8 feat(studio): improve database column list scanning (#44208)
## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

UI improvements. Resolves DEPR-419.

## What is the current behavior?

- `ColumnList` splits type information across separate `Data Type` and
`Format` columns, which makes scanning less efficient
- The list only surfaces a limited subset of column metadata up front,
so key structural information like primary keys, foreign keys,
uniqueness, and identity is not easy to scan
- Constraint and nullability affordances are not aligned with the visual
language already used in the Table Editor and Schema Visualiser

## What is the new behavior?

- `ColumnList` now shows a leading type affordance icon, while keeping
the exact Postgres type visible in the `Type` column
- The standalone `Data Type` column is removed, and `format` is now the
primary textual type shown in the table
- The `Constraints` column now surfaces explicit icon-plus-label tokens
for:
  - `Primary`
  - `Foreign key`
  - `Unique`
  - `Identity`
  - `Nullable` / `Non-nullable`
- Constraint tokens use a purpose-built segmented style based on
`ComputeBadge`, including a green primary variant for primary keys
- Nullability now matches Schema Visualiser semantics exactly: outlined
diamond for nullable, filled diamond for non-nullable
- Existing search, descriptions, row actions, and permission gating are
preserved

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 contributing checklists 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 v20
# 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=
