Supabase
Self-hosted Supabase on your own server — Postgres, authentication, REST/GraphQL APIs, realtime, storage and edge functions.
Self-hosted Firebase alternative: a complete Supabase platform on your own server, with Postgres database, user authentication, REST and GraphQL APIs, realtime subscriptions, file storage and edge functions.
Deploy from this page: TryDirect provisions the server, starts the ten Supabase services, generates every credential for your deployment and puts the dashboard and APIs behind the Kong gateway. No secrets ship with the stack and nothing is shared between deployments.
What's included
| Service | Port | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Kong (API Gateway) | 8000 | REST API proxy |
| Studio | 3000 | Dashboard UI |
| PostgREST | 3000 | Auto-generated REST API |
| GoTrue | 9999 | Authentication |
| Realtime | 4000 | Realtime subscriptions |
| Storage | 5000 | File storage |
| Edge Functions | 9000 | Serverless functions |
| Postgres | 5432 | Database (private network only) |
What you configure
- Domain (
commonDomain): the hostname your dashboard and APIs are
served on, e.g. supabase.example.com
- Dashboard sign-in (
DASHBOARD_USERNAME): defaults tosupabase;
the password is generated and shown after the deploy
- SMTP (optional): point the bundled mail service at your provider to
send real signup and recovery emails
The database password, JWT secret and anon/service API keys are generated per deployment and stored in your project's secret store, so you never type or rotate them by hand.
Use it for
- Mobile and web application backends (auth + Postgres + storage)
- Internal tools that need row-level security out of the box
- Prototypes that can grow into production without a rewrite
Requirements
- A cloud account connected to TryDirect (the deploy form provisions the
server) or one of your existing servers
- 4 GB RAM or more (the stack runs ten services)
- A DNS record for your domain pointing at the deployment
Alternative: deploy with the Stacker CLI
Everything above also works from the command line:
git clone https://github.com/trydirect/awesome-selfhosted-stacker.git
cd awesome-selfhosted-stacker/stacker-projects/supabase
# Generate secrets
cp .env.example .env
./scripts/generate-secrets.sh
# Deploy
stacker deploy --target cloud --key htz-0Supported Clouds
