FAQPage Schema
How do I set up self-hosted OTA updates for a React Native Expo app?▼

No, you do not need EAS Update. This Skill implements the Expo Updates Protocol via Supabase Edge Functions, allowing you to distribute JS updates without relying on Expo's external build servers or subscriptions.

Can I use Supabase Edge Functions to serve Expo Updates manifests?▼

The CI pipeline handles uploading new JS bundles and assets to Supabase storage and prunes old updates. This ensures your self-hosted OTA distribution retains only the necessary versions.

What dependencies are required to implement OTA updates with Supabase?▼

Required dependencies include expo-updates for the client, supabase-js for storage interaction, and deno for the Edge Function. The Skill also integrates Doppler for configuration management.

Does this self-hosted OTA approach work without Expo's external build servers?▼

Yes, this self-hosted OTA approach works entirely without Expo's external build servers. It uses Supabase to host JS bundles and Edge Functions to implement the update protocol independently.

How do I prune old OTA updates in a Supabase CI pipeline?▼

You can prune old OTA updates using the included CI script. It handles uploading new updates to Supabase and automatically prunes old ones to enforce flexible update distribution and retention policies.
