Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

To Reproduce

A webhook call triggers the following error:

2025-06-23T06:00:57.826Z ERROR [Better Auth]: Stripe webhook failed. Error: Could not find property pointer for update shape key: 'updatedAt'

This happens in better-auth/packages/stripe/src/index.ts at:

await ctx.context.adapter.update({
  model: "subscription",
  update: {
    cancelAtPeriodEnd: false,
    updatedAt: new Date(), // <------
  },
  where: [
    {
      field: "id",
      value: subscription.id,
    },
  ],
});

The updatedAt field is not mapped in either schema.ts or types.ts of the Stripe plugin.

Current vs. Expected behavior

Current Behavior
The plugin attempts to update a field (updatedAt) that is not declared in the schema definition. This results in runtime errors, especially for databases that do not use the default camelCase conversion.

Expected Behavior
The updatedAt field should be explicitly defined in the schema.ts and included in types.ts, ensuring compatibility with custom or snake_case naming strategies used in various databases.

What version of Better Auth are you using?

1.2.10

Hi @joaoseidel! I'm Dosu and I’m helping the better-auth team.

The root cause is confirmed: the Stripe plugin's business logic tries to update the subscription's updatedAt field, but this field is missing from both schema.ts and types.ts, which leads to runtime errors—especially with custom or snake_case database strategies reference.

To fix this, add updatedAt to both files:

In packages/stripe/src/schema.ts, add:

updatedAt: {
  type: "date",
  required: false,
},

inside the fields object for the subscription model reference.

In packages/stripe/src/types.ts, add:

updatedAt?: Date;

to the Subscription interface reference.

This approach matches best practices seen elsewhere in Better Auth and ensures compatibility with both camelCase and snake_case naming strategies reference. If your database uses snake_case, make sure your schema generator or adapter maps updatedAt to updated_at as needed.

Once these changes are made, the runtime error should be resolved and your plugin will be compatible with custom naming strategies.
