 "title": "Run server logic with Edge and database functions",
 "page_title": "How to run server logic with Edge and database functions with Supabase",
 "summary": "Move business rules into Edge Functions or Postgres functions instead of a separate server.",
 "who": "Developer who needs custom logic, such as validating input or calling an outside service, without hosting a dedicated backend.",
 "problem": "Keeping a separate API server running for a few custom rules adds cost and deployment work.",
 "outcome": "Custom logic runs either inside Postgres as database functions or as Edge Functions called by your app.",
 "steps": [
  "Decide which logic belongs in the database, such as data checks, and which belongs in an Edge Function, such as calls to outside services.",
  "Write the database function in your Supabase project using the Database Functions guide.",
  "Write the Edge Function following the Edge Functions guide linked in the README.",
  "Call both from your app through the client library and confirm the expected response.",
  "Confirm that the function only exposes the operations you intend."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the supabase/supabase README and its Database Functions and Edge Functions docs, write one database function and one Edge Function that handle <task description>. Output both code files and a test call for each. Verify that invalid input is rejected by both.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Advanced",
 "time": "2 hours",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README lists Edge Functions and Database Functions as features but does not describe their runtime or limits, so check the linked guides for those details.",

 "requirements": [
  "A Supabase account at https://supabase.com/dashboard, or a self-hosted install following the self-host guide",
  "A basic understanding of Postgres tables and rows",
  "A client library for your app language, such as supabase-js for JavaScript or TypeScript, listed in the README client table"
