Cemal Kılıç d810b7772b feat(docs): token_endpoint_auth_method in OAuth server docs (#43128)
## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.

YES

## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Docs update

## Summary
The OAuth server supports three token endpoint authentication methods
(`none`, `client_secret_basic`, `client_secret_post`), but the docs only
showed `client_secret_post` implicitly without labeling it, and never
mentioned client_secret_basic (the actual default for confidential
clients per RFC 7591).

- Add `token_endpoint_auth_method` explanation with defaults/constraints
to the client registration section in getting-started.mdx
- Update registration examples (JS, Python, cURL) and response JSON to
include token_endpoint_auth_method
- Restructure token exchange and refresh token sections in
oauth-flows.mdx to show all three auth methods with clear labels
- Add `client_secret_basic` examples using HTTP Basic auth header

Maintainers

If you are a maintainer of any tools in the Supabase ecosystem, you can use this site to provide documentation for the tools & libraries that you maintain.

Versioning

All tools have versioned docs, which are kept in separate folders. For example, the CLI has the following folders and files:

  • cli: the "next" release.
  • cli_spec: contains the DocSpec for the "next" release (see below).
  • cli_versioned_docs: a version of the documentation for every release (including the most current version).
  • cli_versioned_sidebars: a version of the sidebar for every release (including the most current version).

When you release a new version of a tool, you should also release a new version of the docs. You can do this via the command line. For example, if you just released the CLI version 1.0.1:

npm run cli:version 1.0.1

DocSpec

We use documentation specifications which can be used to generate human-readable docs.

  • OpenAPI: for documenting API endpoints.
  • SDKSpec (custom to Supabase): for SDKs and client libraries.
  • ConfigSpec (custom to Supabase): for configuration options.
  • CLISpec (custom to Supabase): for CLI commands and usage.

The benefit of using custom specifications is that we can generate many other types from a strict schema (eg, HTML and manpages). It also means that we can switch to any documentation system we want. On this site we use Next.js, but on Supabase's official website, we use a custom React site and expose only a subset of the available API for each tool.
