Danny WhiteandJoshen Lim 64c37ca72b chore(studio): database tables UI improvements (#44163)
## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

UI improvements

## What is the current behavior?

- The database tables list and columns list use inconsistent page shells
and table primitives
- The child columns page has weaker information hierarchy and row
actions than the parent tables page
- Responsive column priority on the tables list does not reflect the
most important data on smaller breakpoints
- Table actions and counts are harder to scan than they should be

## What is the new behavior?

- Both pages now use `PageLayout` with matching large-width content
containers
- `ColumnList` now uses the latest `ui` Table primitives instead of the
legacy cleaned-up-later table
- Both pages now show totals in a table footer
- `ColumnList` now uses a tiny filter input, case-insensitive filtering,
inline descriptions under the name, and a primary `Edit` button with
overflow actions
- `TableList` now has improved responsive column priority:
  - smallest breakpoint keeps `Rows`
  - `Columns` appears from `sm`
  - `Size` appears from `lg`
  - `Realtime Enabled` appears from `2xl`
- `TableList` now uses `View columns` as the CTA, removes the ambiguous
icon from that CTA, restores the entity icon from `sm` upwards only, and
tightens the name column on the smallest breakpoint only
- Boolean icon columns are right-aligned consistently, with the same
Realtime icon tones applied to both `Realtime Enabled` and `Nullable`
- The columns detail page now uses breadcrumbs for navigation back to
Tables instead of an inline back button

Community & Support

  • Community Forum. Best for: help with building, discussion about database best practices.
  • GitHub Issues. Best for: bugs and errors you encounter using Supabase.
  • Email Support. Best for: problems with your database or infrastructure.
  • Discord. Best for: sharing your applications and hanging out with the community.

How it works

Supabase is a combination of open source tools. We’re building the features of Firebase using enterprise-grade, open source products. If the tools and communities exist, with an MIT, Apache 2, or equivalent open license, we will use and support that tool. If the tool doesn't exist, we build and open source it ourselves. Supabase is not a 1-to-1 mapping of Firebase. Our aim is to give developers a Firebase-like developer experience using open source tools.

Architecture

Supabase is a hosted platform. You can sign up and start using Supabase without installing anything. You can also self-host and develop locally.

Architecture

  • Postgres is an object-relational database system with over 30 years of active development that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, feature robustness, and performance.
  • Realtime is an Elixir server that allows you to listen to PostgreSQL inserts, updates, and deletes using websockets. Realtime polls Postgres' built-in replication functionality for database changes, converts changes to JSON, then broadcasts the JSON over websockets to authorized clients.
  • PostgREST is a web server that turns your PostgreSQL database directly into a RESTful API.
  • GoTrue is a JWT-based authentication API that simplifies user sign-ups, logins, and session management in your applications.
  • Storage a RESTful API for managing files in S3, with Postgres handling permissions.
  • pg_graphql a PostgreSQL extension that exposes a GraphQL API.
  • postgres-meta is a RESTful API for managing your Postgres, allowing you to fetch tables, add roles, and run queries, etc.
  • Kong is a cloud-native API gateway.

Client libraries

Our approach for client libraries is modular. Each sub-library is a standalone implementation for a single external system. This is one of the ways we support existing tools.
