WeWeb and Supabase Realtime Struggles

I am building a chat interface in my project but am having trouble using Supabase realtime with WeWeb.

Pagination so far has been a struggle. It doesn’t appear there is a way to listen to updates from a collection. I’m trying to store my chat messages in a var to allow infinite scrolling, but now I can’t receive and manipulate a message as it comes in.

It appears a while ago this was a feature that was planned to come but hasn’t. Any updates?

And does anyone have a workaround for now?

It was supposed to be released with the Supabase update that came out, but it was witheld “because Xano has not released a realtime yet and they want it to not be confusing for people” which screams “we are gatekeeping realtime because Xano hasn’t got it yet”. Hopefully we get a proper realtime management with the advent of Xano’s realtime, of course after they implement this for Xano :slight_smile:

So far you can only do this yourself with custom code, or with whatever WeWeb’s implementation of Supabase’s realtime offers. It would be helpful if you also shared the setup you have and is not working
