Supajobs - an easy to use long running background job runner for Supabase

If you've ever needed to run a long running task from a Supabase app — sending emails, processing files, calling a slow API — you've probably hit the wall where Edge Functions time out and you're stuck standing up your own server just for that one job.

I built SupaJobs to fix that. You write a plain JS function, run one command to deploy it, and trigger it with a single fetch() call from anywhere. Status and logs land in a table in your own Supabase project in real time.

Setup is basically:

1. Install the CLI

​

npm install -g supajobs

1. Initialize

​

supajobs init

connect your Supabase project, credentials get saved, the jobs table gets provisioned automatically

3. Modify business logic

   export default { async run(payload) { console.log('Sending email to:', payload.to); // Your logic here }, };

write your actual logic in the worker function above

4. Deploy

   supajobs deploy

builds and ships it, no Docker needed locally

Trigger it with fetch() from anywhere

No AWS account or credentials needed on your end — it's fully managed, you just write the function.

It's early and invite-only for now while I make sure it holds up — DM me if you want to try it and I'll send a code.
