Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I am building an integration of better-auth into payload. This works by letting better-auth handle the session and syncing the users from better-auth to payload (upon create and delete).

Describe the solution you'd like

For the sync I am using database hooks, as I thought this to be the most robust approach as it is not bypassable. Turns out that database hooks don't support delete, only create and update?

It would be great to have a delete hook available as well

Describe alternatives you've considered

I could instead use regular hooks, but I was afraid it might not be as robust as database hooks / that there might be ways that someone interacting with my better-auth instance might bypass the hooks. Curious what you think though.

Additional context

I need to do the same ideally in the database hook. As a temporary solution, can anyone post a robust hook to catch the delete user scenario?
