Building a Custom Scheduler Using React and Supabase
- In this article, the author discusses how to build a scheduler to post articles on dev.to using React and Supabase.
- The application allows users to schedule posts, which are stored in a Supabase database.
- A Cron job is set up to call an edge function every minute, which checks if any articles are scheduled to post at the current time.
- If there is an article scheduled, the edge function posts it on dev.to using its API and updates the database.
- The author uses bolt.new to generate a complete React application with dependencies and configuration.
- Supabase provides an all-in-one solution for building applications, including auth, storage, and edge functions.
- The author explains how to create the Supabase Edge function using Deno, which is distributed globally at the edge.
- Supabase now has a dashboard to create a cron job that can run SQL snippets, database functions, HTTP requests, and edge functions.
- This technique can be adapted for a variety of use cases, and readers are encouraged to explore additional features like using Supabase storage to upload and fetch images for thumbnails.
- The full code is available on GitHub for readers to reference.
