ILLA
This tutorial outlines the process of creating an Admin Panel using ILLA Builder and Supabase in a few simple steps. ILLA is a low-code platform for developers that enables the rapid development and deployment of internal tools. It allows for creating pages by dragging and dropping UI components, connecting to any database or API, and writing JavaScript. To learn more about ILLA and give it a try, visit their website at https://www.illacloud.com/. Let's begin!
Step 1: Set up your Back end on Supabase#
On the Supabase dashboard, click New project
and set the name to adminPanel.
Create a new table by clicking on the Create a new table
.
Supabase offers a variety of options for populating tables with data, including writing queries, creating schemas through a user interface, and uploading CSV files.
Fill out the info in the table. The database is now set up.
Step 2: Build UI on ILLA Cloud#
On ILLA Cloud, click Create New to create a new application.
Drag components from the Insert
panel to the canvas.
Select the components on the canvas and configure the property on the Inspect
panel.
As seen in the below screenshot, we have built a simple admin panel.
Step 3: Connect to Supabase and config CRUD#
Note down the database connection information under Project Settings in Supabase.
In the Action List, click + New
and select Supabase DB.
Fill out the form to connect to your Supabase instance. Test connection and save resource.
Click Create Action
to create an action with the Supabase resource and config your CRUD.
Use {{
to get the front-end input data. The following is an example of the User Management page in the Admin Panel.
Search for a user by the name inputted in input1
SELECT *
FROM user
WHERE name = "{{input1.value}}"
;
Update user data. Update user information when id matches
UPDATE user
SET name = "{{input3.value}}"
, email = "{{input4.value}}"
WHERE id="{{input2.value}}"
;
Insert user data
INSERT INTO user VALUES("{{input5.value}}","{{input6.value}}","{{input7.value}}");
Delete a user by id
DELETE FROM user WHERE id = "{{input2.value}}";
Step 4: Show data on components#
Configure the properties of components with {{
. For example:
