SLIM POSTGRES NOW BUILDS FROM REAL CONFIG, CLI REMOVES NX, SUPAVISOR SPLITS METRICS

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Supabase

Supabase just unified its slim postgres image build to use the same ansible config as docker.io, eliminating a year of transcription bugs in one architectural fix.

The slim postgres bundle was hand-coded while docker.io copied from ansible/files, guaranteeing divergence at every update [1]. That ends today. Over on CLI, the team ripped out Nx entirely and consolidated on Turbo, cleaning up years of build-system sprawl [2]. Meanwhile supavisor split its metrics pipeline to route tenant-tagged observability separately from cluster-level metrics, unblocking regional vs. central Prometheus endpoints [3]. The CLI command family grew complete with workers list, status, and delete [4], while postgres smoke tests now diff against the live docker.io image per version instead of hardcoded expectations [5]. Postgres image gaps documented and staged for closure [6]. CLI hardened the release-notes generator against prompt injection [7]. Frontend types regenerated to fix breaking API changes [8]. 59 commits, 40 PRs, 6 releases across the stack.
