supabase VS auth-module

To work with Supabase in Nuxt, the best way is to use the official module that you can check out here.

Auth Issue: nuxt-modules/supabase#144

Supabase has an excellent DX that is well-documented. There's also the nuxt-supabase package and its documentation here - https://supabase.nuxtjs.org/.

I feel you. What helped me was referencing other nuxt 3 modules such as https://github.com/nuxt-modules/supabase

This is pretty much all you need: https://supabase.nuxtjs.org/

For my situation, I needed to use a Profile wrapper to handle this. Here is a link to a Github discussion for reference, in case anyone needs it: https://github.com/nuxt-modules/supabase/issues/50

Nuxt 3 comes with built-in utilities to support session and authentication. We are working on a new official module.

The evolution of nuxt-auth: there's nuxt/auth (Nuxt 2), an alternative module to try to bridge the gap for Nuxt 3 (and another one), and suddenly, sidebase/nuxt-auth popped up, which seems to wrap next-auth. I don't know if that's the proposed official solution going forward, reuse don't reinvent, or just a stop-gap measure (will the rug get pulled again?)

If you’re on nuxt 2 you can checkout the „old“ nuxt-auth which supports google and a lot of stuff surrounding it here: https://auth.nuxtjs.org/

If this is to do with user authentication and the API is using some kind of standard way of authenticating (e.g. a REST API) I would personally use https://auth.nuxtjs.org/ to do the heavy lifting for you.

Nuxt Auth module is very convenient to configure oauth and oidc authentication. And it wires everything in a project like routes, store, Axios interceptors etc..
