I’m using supabase-js with a React app, implementing its realtime functionality to get real-time updates from the database in the UI. Overall it’s working great. Sometimes, though, the realtime channels will close (they stop working and I get a CLOSED event).

When that happens, I’d like to reopen them. Before I do, though, I’m not sure if I should first unsubscribe from the closed channel (supabase.removeChannel()). I’d assumed yes, but when I do that I get another CLOSED event on the old channel, which makes me wonder if the removeChannel() call is unnecessary (or even harmful).

Thanks!

You should do removeChannel otherwise you'll end up opening a bunch of connections. Getting the CLOSED message after that is expected.
