feat!: add a root SupabaseError and wrap transport errors in every package - #2018
Adds one exception hierarchy for the whole SDK, rooted in the new supabase_utils.errors.SupabaseError, and wraps the exceptions of the HTTP client in SupabaseTransportError in both adapters.
SupabaseError is the base class of every exception the packages raise. It carries message (also returned by str()) and an optional code, and pickles for every subclass.
SupabaseAPIError is the layer for error responses, with status_code, code, message and the response the service sent. AuthApiError, AuthUnknownError, postgrest.APIError, StorageApiError, FunctionsHttpError and FunctionsRelayError inherit from it, next to the root of their package. The HTTP status is status_code on all of them.
SupabaseTransportError is raised by the httpx and aiohttp adapters for a request that never received a response, with the adapter exception chained with raise ... from. RequestTimeoutError is now a subclass of it and still a TimeoutError.
Every package root inherits from SupabaseError: AuthError, APIError, StorageException, FunctionsError, SupabaseException, and the new RealtimeError, which also replaces the bare Exception a failed subscribe() raised. MaxRetriesExceeded moves to realtime.exceptions and is exported from realtime.
AuthRetryableError and AuthWeakPasswordError are AuthApiErrors, since the service answered with them. CustomAuthError, a grouping ported from supabase-js, is removed: the errors the auth client raises on its own inherit AuthError directly and no longer carry a made-up status.
The hierarchy is documented in the README of supabase, the adapter guide of supabase_utils says to wrap transport errors, and MIGRATION.md lists the breaking changes.
Why
The packages had unrelated exception roots, so a user could not catch "any Supabase error" with one clause, and transport failures leaked as raw httpx or aiohttp exceptions that depended on which adapter is installed. Flutter did the same in supabase/supabase-flutter (SupabaseException, SupabaseApiException, SupabaseTransportException).
Breaking changes
See the "One exception hierarchy" section of MIGRATION.md: status is renamed to status_code, the error constructors take the status as a keyword argument, FunctionsError loses name and status, AuthUnknownError.data is response.content, postgrest.APIError takes status_code and str() returns its message, and the auth errors are no longer dataclasses.
Added a shared exception hierarchy across SDK services, with clearer access to HTTP status codes, error codes, and response details.
Exported common and Realtime-specific exception types from the public packages.
Transport failures now have a dedicated exception type; timeout errors remain catchable as built-in TimeoutError.
Documentation
Added guidance on handling service, transport, and client-side errors, including migration notes for the updated exception behavior.
The change adds shared Supabase exception classes for general errors, service-response errors, and transport failures. Auth, Functions, PostgREST, Storage, and Realtime exceptions adopt the shared hierarchy. Service API errors use status_code and can retain the originating response. HTTP adapters wrap non-timeout transport failures. The Supabase package exports the shared and Realtime error types, and the migration and package documentation describe the updated error contracts.

Change: Feature
Merge Risk: Moderate · up to e4644
Resolve unrelated handler failures triggering reconnections before merging: they can interrupt healthy subscriptions and repeat handler work. Smaller HTTP metadata, URL-error handling, and migration-guidance corrections also remain.

- Line 166: Update the migration guide’s SupabaseError catch-all claim and the

raise the built-in TimeoutError and are not caught by except SupabaseError;
document that users must handle Realtime connection errors separately, using the

exception text from the SupabaseTransportError message, preventing sensitive URL

- Around line 78-79: Update the aiohttp adapter’s client.request call to pass
raise_for_status=False, ensuring error responses reach the package’s response
parsing path with their status and metadata intact rather than being converted
by the ClientError handler into SupabaseTransportError.
Review comments at @src/utils/src/supabase_utils/http/adapters/httpx.py:
- Around line 69-70: Update the `RequestError` handler in the HTTP adapter so
`SupabaseTransportError` preserves enough connection-error information for
`automatically_reconnect` to recognize and retry wrapped `OSError` failures.
Keep unrelated transport errors on their existing handling path.

Every exception the packages raise themselves inherits from `supabase_utils.errors.SupabaseError`, re-exported as `supabase.SupabaseError`, so `except SupabaseError` catches any failure the SDK reports. The hierarchy is described in the [error handling](src/supabase/README.md#error-handling) section of the README. The realtime connection is the exception: a lost websocket still surfaces as the `websockets.ConnectionClosed` or built-in `TimeoutError` that failed it, as before.
functions.invoke("") raises ValueError, which except SupabaseError does not catch. State that argument validation can raise ValueError or TypeError, and do not promise that SupabaseError catches every SDK failure.

Report the actual response status.
When maybe_single() receives multiple rows in an HTTP 200 response, status_code is 406. Callers inspecting the HTTP status receive incorrect information.

Do not retry unrelated handler transport failures.
If client_handler raises SupabaseTransportError from an HTTP request, the loop closes a healthy websocket and reruns the handler. Repeated failures can end in MaxRetriesExceeded, with the HTTP error only as its cause. Distinguish connection and token failures from unrelated handler failures before retrying.
