   agreed :) if you want to see the demo that The Guild [0] built using pg_graphql, see here: https://supabase-graphql-example.vercel.app/

   Also congrats for their own launch today - GraphQL Yoga 2.0: https://www.the-guild.dev/blog/announcing-graphql-yoga-2

   > entire solution from docker

   We PR'd this into our docker-compose today [0]. We're always a bit slammed during Launch Week, so if you spot any problems let use know and we'll patch it up asap.

   The extension is also deployed directly into our PG bundle [1] which is available in docker [2]

   > The Gui for adding roles and tying them to postgres access is very slick with hasura. Is this done manually via SQL commands with supabase?

   I haven't tried Hasura so I don't know if this is a direct comparison. pg_graphql works with Postgres Row Level Security - we provide a GUI for this in our Dashboard, but they are also just native PG Policies, so you can write them in raw SQL

   GraphQL support for PostgreSQL

   

   hey HN, supabase ceo here. I'm really excited about this release.

   Our GraphQL implementation is built on top of pg_graphql[0], a PostgreSQL extension we open-sourced a few months ago. The implementation works with a lot of native PG functionality (like Row Level Security). You can also do a some neat things with PG GRANTS, enabling/disabling access to different tables/columns to effectively serve a different GraphQL API depending who is "logged in".

   On Supabase, the extension is served via PostgREST[1] using the public PostgreSQL function exposed by pg_graphql. PostgREST exposes PG functions as RPC routes (in our case we also map /rest/v1/rpc/graphql => /graphql/v1)

   I'll ping the main dev (@oli_rice) and make sure he is here to answer any technical questions. This is just one of the exciting features we're launching this week. Stay tuned for one of our most-requested features later this week.

   A full-featured http proxy for node.js

   

   There's several ways to have a blog path contain a separate setup from the marketing/product routes.

   One is to run a reverse proxy on the root domain to pull in separate routes for various services.

   https://github.com/http-party/node-http-proxy

   You can do rewrites at the server level for the root domain

   Or if the app on the root domain can do the routing for you (have done this before with a Rails app)

    Discontinued Gel supercharges Postgres with a modern data model, graph queries, Auth & AI solutions, and much more. [Moved to: https://github.com/geldata/gel]

    

    EdgeDB [1] has indeed a rich GraphQL layer, but it's a very different project.

    While it also builds on top of Postgres, EdgeDB replaces the entire relational database front-end. EdgeDB features a SQL replacement language called EdgeQL (analytical capabilities of SQL married with deep-fetching in GraphQL), a higher-level data model (tables -> object types), integrated migrations engine, a custom protocol with great performance & great client APIs, and many other things. Read more here [2].

    Hi all, this sounds very cool. How does pg_graphql compare to Postgraphile? https://github.com/graphile/postgraphile (besides I guess running in the DB with PLpgSQL instead of as a NodeJS server)

    Did you think about integrating Postgraphile with the Supabase ecosystem or have specific limitations with it?

    Thanks!

    Congratulations on the GraphQL launch. I think it is a step in the right direction :)

    I see a lot of mentions of Hasura in the comments.

    If you'd like what Supabase is building but prefer using Hasura you might want to check out what we're building at Nhost (http://nhost.io/). We use Hasura's GraphQL Engine for the API layer while also providing Postgres, Auth, Storage and Serverless Functions.

    Discontinued Build Postgres Extensions with Rust! [Moved to: https://github.com/tcdi/pgrx] (by tcdi)

    

    Yes! We've been exploring https://github.com/tcdi/pgx internally so we'd be able to re-work the hotspots in rust.

    We haven't decided to go that route yet but its been incredibly easy to work with & I'm psyched about what options it could open up like:

    - Stateless requests (no schema cache)

    - Subscriptions (via a background worker)
