Do you manage your functions and triggers through source code? What framework do you use to do that? I like Supabase but it’s desire to default to native pg stuff for a lot of that has kind of steered me away from using it for more complex projects where you need to use sprocs to retrieve data and pgtap to test them, because hiding away business logic in the db like that is viewed as an anti pattern in a lot of organizations. I love it for simple CRUD apps though, the kind where the default postgrest functionality is mostly enough and having to drop into a sproc or build a view is rarely necessary.

I think if there was a tightly integrated framework for managing the state of all of these various triggers, views, functions and sproc through source and integrating them into the normal SDLC it would be a more appealing sell for complex projects
