Testing Supabase Edge Functions Locally
Edge functions work in production but hard to test locally. Need to deploy to test. No local execution environment. Debugging is difficult without local testing.
Supabase CLI provides local development environment for testing functions before pushing to production.
Error Messages You Might See
Function not found locally
Cannot connect to local Supabase
env variables undefined
Common Causes
- Supabase CLI not installed or not logged in
- Edge functions not set up for local testing
- Wrong function path or env variables not configured
- Local environment not started properly
- Dependencies not installed for function
How to Fix It
Start local Supabase environment:
supabase startTest function locally:
curl -X POST http://localhost:54321/functions/v1/my-function \
-H "Authorization: Bearer " \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"test": true}' View logs with supabase functions logs.
