As of December 14th, we renamed to repo from gotrue-py to auth-py to mirror the changes in the JavaScript library.

AI interpretation — verify before relying

AI-generated interpretation of the package facts above; every digit, version, license, or vulnerability id it cites is grounded in the facts already shown on this page

A Python client for Supabase authentication that handles user sign-up, sign-in, OAuth, MFA, and session management via both synchronous and asynchronous interfaces.

Low friction install with three lightweight runtime dependencies (httpx, pydantic, pyjwt). Active maintenance with recent releases and 2557 repository stars indicate solid community backing.

MIT license permits commercial and private use with minimal restrictions, making it suitable for most projects without licensing concerns.

Usage

pip install supabase-auth

from supabase_auth import SyncGoTrueClient

headers = {"apiKey": "your-api-key"}
client = SyncGoTrueClient(url="https://your-auth-url.com", headers=headers)
user = client.sign_in_with_password(email="user@example.com", password="password")

Requires Python 3.9 or later and a valid Supabase Auth endpoint URL with API key.

Verdict: Well-maintained authentication library with feature parity to the JavaScript client, low install friction, and no known vulnerabilities. Suitable for projects needing Supabase-backed auth with sync/async flexibility and MFA support.

Needs verification

Whether the library's error-raising approach (raising exceptions rather than returning error objects) aligns with your application's error handling patterns.
Performance characteristics and rate-limiting behavior when used at scale with high-frequency authentication requests.
