how can I connect to timesscaledb
To connect to TimescaleDB from a Pipedream workflow, you would typically use a Node.js code step to make SQL queries over a PostgreSQL connection, since TimescaleDB is an extension of PostgreSQL. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how you can achieve this: 1. Install the necessary npm package: To interact with TimescaleDB (PostgreSQL), you can use the pg
npm package. Since Pipedream supports importing npm packages directly in the code steps, you can do so by adding the following import at the top of your Node.js code: import pg from "pg";
2. Configure your TimescaleDB connection: You’ll need your TimescaleDB connection details, including the host, database name, user, and password. 3. Write the code to connect and query your database: Here’s an example of how you might write a code step to connect to your TimescaleDB instance and execute a simple query: import pg from "pg"; export default defineComponent({ async run({ steps, $ }) { const client = new pg.Client({ user: 'your_username', host: 'your_host', database: 'your_database', password: 'your_password', port: 5432, // Default PostgreSQL port }); await client.connect(); const res = await client.query('SELECT NOW()'); // Example query console.log(res.rows[0]); await client.end(); return res.rows[0]; // Return the result of your query }, });
4. Securely store your credentials: Instead of hardcoding your database credentials in the code, it’s a good practice to use Pipedream’s built-in environment variables to store sensitive information. You can set these variables in the Pipedream UI under the “ENV VARIABLES” section of your workflow’s settings. 5. Use the environment variables in your code: Replace the hardcoded credentials in your code with references to these environment variables. For example: ``` const client = new pg.Client({ user: process.env.TIMESCALEDB_USER, host: process.env.TIMESCALEDB_HOST, database: process.env.TIMESCALEDB_DATABASE, password: process.env.TIMESCALEDB_PASSWORD, port: process.env.TIMESCALEDB_PORT || 5432, }); ``
how can I connect to supabase to add a new row in an existing table. Its connected and saying null
To connect to Supabase and add a new row in an existing table, you can follow these steps using the Pipedream UI: 1. Search for the Supabase app from the step menu. 2. Select the Insert Row action. 3. Connect your Supabase account by following the prompts to authorize Pipedream to access your Supabase account. 4. Select a Table from the dropdown menu or pass a string dynamically from a previous step in your workflow. 5. For Row Data, input the data you want to insert into the new row. This should be an object where the keys are the column names and the values are the data you want to insert for each column. 6. At the bottom of the step, click Test to run the action and test the configuration. Here’s a brief example of how the Row Data might look for a table with columns name
and email
: on { "name": "John Doe", "email": "[john.doe@example.com](mailto:john.doe@example.com)" }
Ensure that the data structure matches the schema of your Supabase table. For more detailed instructions, please refer to the Insert Row action documentation. If you’re seeing null
as a response and expect data, ensure that your table name and row data are correctly specified and that your Supabase account has the necessary permissions set up.
When I sent to supabase the row isn’t delivered yet pipedream says success
It sounds like you’re experiencing an issue where Pipedream indicates a successful operation when sending a row to Supabase, but the row isn’t actually appearing in your Supabase database. This could be due to a few different reasons, such as network delays, configuration issues, or an error in the way the data is being sent. To help diagnose and resolve the issue, I’ll need a bit more information: 1. Can you confirm that the table you’re trying to insert the row into exists in your Supabase database? 2. Could you share the part of your Pipedream workflow code that’s responsible for sending the row to Supabase? This will help in identifying if there’s an issue with the way the data is being sent. 3. Have you checked the logs in your Supabase project to see if there are any errors or warnings that might indicate what’s going wrong? In the meantime, here’s a basic example of how to use the Upsert Row action in Pipedream with Supabase, which you might find useful for comparison: import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"; export default defineComponent({ props: { supabase: { type: "app", app: "supabase", }, }, async run({ steps, $ }) { return await axios($, { method: "POST", url: `https://${this.supabase.$auth.subdomain}.[supabase.co/rest/v1/your_table_name](http://supabase.co/rest/v1/your_table_name)`, headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${this.supabase.$auth.service_key}`, "Content-Type": "application/json", "apikey": `${this.supabase.$auth.service_key}`, }, data: { // Your row data here }, }); }, });
Please make sure to replace your_table_name
with the actual name of your table and fill in the data
object with the row data you’re trying to insert. If you’re still having trouble, I recommend visiting Pipedream’s support page for more assistance.
