Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

To Reproduce

Use the official admin plugin and call authClient.admin.listUsers() on the frontend

Current vs. Expected behavior

The exemple in the docs shows:

const users = await authClient.admin.listUsers({
    query: {
        searchField: "email",
        searchOperator: "contains",
        searchValue: "@example.com",
        limit: 10,
        offset: 0,
        sortBy: "createdAt",
        sortDirection: "desc",
        filterField: "role",
        filterOperator: "eq",
        filterValue: "admin",
    }
});

And by using the filter fields in the example we dont get user that have more roles than just the admin role.
Let say whe have a user that has the roles ["user", "admin"]. Those are not returned and i believe that is not the result most people expect.

Supporting 'contains' operator could solve the problem.

What version of Better Auth are you using?

^1.2.7

Provide environment information

- OS: Windows 10
- Browser: Firefox

Which area(s) are affected? (Select all that apply)

Package, Other

Auth config (if applicable)

import { betterAuth } from "better-auth"
import { admin } from "better-auth/plugins"

export const auth = betterAuth({
  plugins: [
    admin()
  ],
  emailAndPassword: {  
    enabled: true
  },
});
