Auth Quickstarts

Use Supabase Auth with React

Learn how to Supabase Auth with React.js.

1

Create a new Supabase project

Launch a new project in the Supabase Dashboard.

Your new database has a table for storing your users. You can see that this table is currently empty by running some SQL in the SQL Editor.

 select * from auth.users;
2

Create a React app

Create a React app using the create-react-app command.

1npx create-react-app my-app
3

Install the Supabase client library

The fastest way to get started is to use Supabase's auth-ui-react library which provides a convenient interface for working with Supabase Auth from a React app.

Navigate to the React app and install the Supabase libraries.

1cd my-app && npm install @supabase/supabase-js @supabase/auth-ui-react
4

Set up your login component

In index.js, create a Supabase client using your Project URL and public API (anon) key.

You can configure the Auth component to display whenever there is no session inside supabase.auth.getSession()

  import './index.css'
  import { useState, useEffect } from 'react'
  import { createClient } from '@supabase/supabase-js'
  import { Auth, ThemeSupa } from '@supabase/auth-ui-react'

  const supabase = createClient('https://<project>.supabase.co', '<your-anon-key>')

  export default function App() {
    const [session, setSession] = useState(null)

    useEffect(() => {
      supabase.auth.getSession().then(({ data: { session } }) => {
        setSession(session)
      })

      const {
        data: { subscription },
      } = supabase.auth.onAuthStateChange((_event, session) => {
        setSession(session)
      })
      
      return () => subscription.unsubscribe()
    }, [])

    if (!session) {
      return (<Auth supabaseClient={supabase} appearance={{ theme: ThemeSupa }} />)
    }
    else {
      return (<div>Logged in!</div>)
    }
  }
