Features

Scoped Supabase Instances: Use NestJS's service scope to maintain separate Supabase instances for handling different requests, enhancing modularity and efficiency.
Global Authentication Guards: Implement global authentication through APP_GUARD to enforce security across all routes or utilize UseGuard() for specific endpoints.
Per Request Supabase Client: Utilize the supabase.getClient() method to create a "per request client" with Scope.REQUEST. This is essential for handling user-specific authentication without interfering with concurrent requests.
Flexible Configuration: Modify the provided .env file to accommodate your Supabase setup and business logic, ensuring seamless integration with your existing database structure.
Bearer Token Authorization: Use the user's access_token for Bearer Authorization, enabling secure and straightforward authentication throughout your applications.
Easy Startup: A straightforward installation process that includes copying necessary files and updating the service logic to match your application's requirements, allowing for quick deployment.
GET Request Support: The initial setup allows for basic GET requests to ensure that your application is correctly configured and capable of interacting with Supabase.
