Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I currently use passport.js, and when I swapped from Asp.Net to passport, I lost the ability to sign-in and link accounts to ebay. Since passport is kinda dead, it would be amazing to have a way to get it implemented here!

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like an auth provider that supports ebay. It's particularly different because of the use of "ruName" for redirect urls, instead of specifying the path itself.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I considered looking into implementing it myself into passport, but the only reference I found was a dead oauth strategy that required upstream changes that didn't get merged.

Additional context
Asp.Net implementation for ebay auth: https://github.com/aspnet-contrib/AspNet.Security.OAuth.Providers/tree/dev/src/AspNet.Security.OAuth.Ebay

Hi, @GMatrixGames. I'm Dosu, and I'm helping the better-auth team manage their backlog. I'm marking this issue as stale.

Issue Summary:

  • Request for eBay authentication provider due to loss of functionality after moving from Asp.Net to passport.js.
  • Importance of "ruName" in redirect URLs for eBay's authentication process.
  • Lack of suitable alternatives as passport.js is no longer maintained.
  • Previous implementation efforts failed due to unmerged upstream changes.
  • No comments or developments have been made on this issue yet.

Next Steps:

  • Please confirm if this issue is still relevant to the latest version of the better-auth repository by commenting here.
  • If no updates are provided, the issue will be automatically closed in 7 days.

Thank you for your understanding and contribution!

Although I'm not using better auth at the current moment, this would still be applicable as I have not found an alternative except rolling my own auth system.

PR is welcome. This should be very easy to implement using AI (Claude Code or CodeX) now

Hey @GMatrixGames we likely will not support ebay oauth, please use the generic oauth if possible.
