When to Use

Apply when writing Supabase client queries for CRUD operations, filtering, joins, and real-time subscriptions.

Patterns

Pattern 1: Select with Filters

typescript

// Source: https://supabase.com/docs/reference/javascript/select
const { data, error } = await supabase
  .from('todos')
  .select('id, title, completed')
  .eq('user_id', userId)
  .order('created_at', { ascending: false })
  .limit(10);

Pattern 2: Insert with Return

typescript

// Source: https://supabase.com/docs/reference/javascript/insert
const { data, error } = await supabase
  .from('todos')
  .insert({ title: 'New todo', user_id: userId })
  .select()
  .single();

Pattern 3: Update with Match

typescript

// Source: https://supabase.com/docs/reference/javascript/update
const { data, error } = await supabase
  .from('todos')
  .update({ completed: true })
  .eq('id', todoId)
  .select()
  .single();

Pattern 4: Select with Relations (JOIN)

typescript

// Source: https://supabase.com/docs/reference/javascript/select
const { data, error } = await supabase
  .from('posts')
  .select(`
    id,
    title,
    author:profiles(name, avatar_url),
    comments(id, content)
  `)
  .eq('published', true);

Pattern 5: Upsert (Insert or Update)

typescript

// Source: https://supabase.com/docs/reference/javascript/upsert
const { data, error } = await supabase
  .from('profiles')
  .upsert({ id: userId, name: 'New Name' })
  .select()
  .single();

Pattern 6: Count Query

typescript

// Source: https://supabase.com/docs/reference/javascript/select
const { count, error } = await supabase
  .from('todos')
  .select('*', { count: 'exact', head: true })
  .eq('completed', false);

Anti-Patterns

•Not handling errors - Always check error before using data
•Select * in production - Specify columns explicitly for performance
•Missing .single() - Use when expecting one row, prevents array return
•Chaining after await - Build query first, then await

Verification Checklist

• Error handling: if (error) throw error
• Specific columns selected (not *)
• .single() used for single-row queries
• RLS policies allow the operation
• Types match database schema
