Next.js + Supabase Auth

Expert integration of Supabase Auth with Next.js App Router

Capabilities

• nextjs-auth
• supabase-auth-nextjs
• auth-middleware
• auth-callback

Prerequisites

• Required skills: nextjs-app-router, supabase-backend

Patterns

Supabase Client Setup

Create properly configured Supabase clients for different contexts

When to use: Setting up auth in a Next.js project

// lib/supabase/client.ts (Browser client) 'use client' import { createBrowserClient } from '@supabase/ssr'

export function createClient() { return createBrowserClient( process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL!, process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY! ) }

// lib/supabase/server.ts (Server client) import { createServerClient } from '@supabase/ssr' import { cookies } from 'next/headers'

export async function createClient() { const cookieStore = await cookies() return createServerClient( process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL!, process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY!, { cookies: { getAll() { return cookieStore.getAll() }, setAll(cookiesToSet) { cookiesToSet.forEach(({ name, value, options }) => { cookieStore.set(name, value, options) }) }, }, } ) }

Auth Middleware

Protect routes and refresh sessions in middleware

When to use: You need route protection or session refresh

// middleware.ts import { createServerClient } from '@supabase/ssr' import { NextResponse, type NextRequest } from 'next/server'

export async function middleware(request: NextRequest) { let response = NextResponse.next({ request })

const supabase = createServerClient( process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL!, process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY!, { cookies: { getAll() { return request.cookies.getAll() }, setAll(cookiesToSet) { cookiesToSet.forEach(({ name, value, options }) => { response.cookies.set(name, value, options) }) }, }, } )

// Refresh session if expired const { data: { user } } = await supabase.auth.getUser()

// Protect dashboard routes if (request.nextUrl.pathname.startsWith('/dashboard') && !user) { return NextResponse.redirect(new URL('/login', request.url)) }

return response }

export const config = { matcher: ['/((?!_next/static|_next/image|favicon.ico).*)'], }

Auth Callback Route

Handle OAuth callback and exchange code for session

When to use: Using OAuth providers (Google, GitHub, etc.)

// app/auth/callback/route.ts import { createClient } from '@/lib/supabase/server' import { NextResponse } from 'next/server'

export async function GET(request: Request) { const { searchParams, origin } = new URL(request.url) const code = searchParams.get('code') const next = searchParams.get('next') ?? '/'

if (code) { const supabase = await createClient() const { error } = await supabase.auth.exchangeCodeForSession(code) if (!error) { return NextResponse.redirect(${origin}${next}) } }

return NextResponse.redirect(${origin}/auth/error) }

Server Action Auth

Handle auth operations in Server Actions

When to use: Login, logout, or signup from Server Components

// app/actions/auth.ts 'use server' import { createClient } from '@/lib/supabase/server' import { redirect } from 'next/navigation' import { revalidatePath } from 'next/cache'

export async function signIn(formData: FormData) { const supabase = await createClient() const { error } = await supabase.auth.signInWithPassword({ email: formData.get('email') as string, password: formData.get('password') as string, })

if (error) { return { error: error.message } }

revalidatePath('/', 'layout') redirect('/dashboard') }

export async function signOut() { const supabase = await createClient() await supabase.auth.signOut() revalidatePath('/', 'layout') redirect('/') }

Get User in Server Component

Access the authenticated user in Server Components

When to use: Rendering user-specific content server-side

// app/dashboard/page.tsx import { createClient } from '@/lib/supabase/server' import { redirect } from 'next/navigation'

export default async function DashboardPage() { const supabase = await createClient() const { data: { user } } = await supabase.auth.getUser()

if (!user) { redirect('/login') }

return (

Welcome, {user.email}

) }

Validation Checks

Using getSession() for Auth Checks

Severity: ERROR

Message: getSession() doesn't verify the JWT. Use getUser() for secure auth checks.

Fix action: Replace getSession() with getUser() for security-critical checks

OAuth Without Callback Route

Severity: ERROR

Message: Using OAuth but missing callback route at app/auth/callback/route.ts

Fix action: Create app/auth/callback/route.ts to handle OAuth redirects
