supabase-rc

Why does this exist?

On Ubuntu I was repeatedly getting errors regarding health checks for supabase docker containers using the CLI from the supabase project. As a result, I downloaded their CLI, changed some of the golang files regarding this, and rebuilt the CLI.

These changes should not affect anything else in our application, but will make supabase actually work without a struggle session on Ubuntu.

Additionally, supabase has at this point repeatedly pushed breaking or broken changes that are incredibly hard to debug to packages at this point, so it's probably a good thing for us to remain on a forked stable version of the CLI until a later date when we need to update things.*

How to use this? I uploaded a modified version of the supabase CLI to npm under the name "supabase-rc", and created a repository in our organization with the same name containing the code changes. Replace the "supabase" dependency in your package.json with the following:

   "supabase": "npm:[email protected]",
