Python support for edge functions

[Oidlichtnwoada]

It would be incredibly helpful to also support Python on the edge, as only with Python, most of the use cases an ordinary backend covers can be handled with supabase as some libraries only support Python. In the future Rust should be added as well or is maybe already supported through WASM. This would cover 99% of all commonly used libraries.

Yes, this would be very desirable!

In general, it would be nice to have the ability to have other languages.

Another idea to consider is even generic containers that can be invoked in a serverless manner for specific intensive functions [this idea is just a thought that needs to be further developed].

Viva Python support!

Yes, I got some Firebase python cloud functions I really need to migrate to supabase
Please 💯

Curious if there's any updates? or if it's planned on the roadmap?

[Zegoverno]

Any update one this? That would be a great addition...
By now, I am setting a hasura.io API (where they support python) and conecting back to supabase using the wrappers WASM.

I'm trying to convert a PDF to image within edge function, would be so much easier to have Python. Can't get it to work with any TS/JS lib so far.

Here for Python support :D

I would also like this feature; am too building a PDF to image + parser microservice 😅

Im shocked this isnt here already. It would open up a world of Machine Learning and AI applications since Python is so much more mature for this.

With all the NLP, ML and LLM stuff I need, a Python Edge Function is going to save my life.

[leonaburime]

Is there any way for the community to support this somehow, such as creating a package or something?
Honestly, I'm not the best coder but Id' be willing to at least take a look at what needs to be done as I'm sure many of you would

[Zegoverno]

me too here, I would be interested in help, but lack the knowledge to start this from zero.

Hi guys, I would like to announce that we're evolving the ML environment for edge-runtime. Unfortunately its not python support but already did improve the onnx model compatibility and the Inference API is the next step on it, so it will be possible to get custom ML model support! 😁
