# Supabase Self-Hosting

We do NOT vendor the Supabase docker-compose here — we track the official repo instead.

## Bootstrap on a fresh Hetzner VPS (Debian/Ubuntu)

```bash
# 1. Install Docker + Compose plugin
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER

# 2. Clone Supabase's official self-host setup
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/supabase/supabase.git
cd supabase/docker

# 3. Seed env
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env: set POSTGRES_PASSWORD, JWT_SECRET, ANON_KEY, SERVICE_ROLE_KEY, SMTP creds,
# SITE_URL, API_EXTERNAL_URL, STUDIO_DEFAULT_ORGANIZATION etc.

# 4. Pull + run
docker compose pull
docker compose up -d
```

## Our repo owns

- `migrations/` — SQL migrations applied via Supabase CLI (`supabase db push`) to the self-hosted DB.
- `.env.example` — the subset of Supabase env vars our client code depends on.
- This README.

## Reverse proxy

Caddy setup lives in a separate directory (not part of this milestone). The public edge
terminates TLS and routes `/auth/*`, `/rest/*`, `/realtime/*`, `/storage/*`, `/functions/*`
to the compose stack, and `/` to Supabase Studio (ACL-restricted).

## Security notes

- Rotate JWT_SECRET at first boot; never reuse the example.
- SERVICE_ROLE_KEY never ships to any client — only edge functions / admin scripts.
- Enable RLS on every user-facing table. Invite-only enforced via `invites` table + policy.
