Originally created by @xcaeser on GitHub (Sep 28, 2024).

Referring to the docs:
Extending the Schema

can you add common columns as optional like roles (as an array), and other generic columns that can be populated on sign up/sign in and with a helper fn when needed?

Thank you

I just saw you can add fields to tables. this is awesome.
I added a role field.

would be nice to have an array type for roles for example

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: {
    provider: "postgres", //change this to your database provider
    url: process.env.DATABASE_URL as string,
  },
  account: {
    accountLinking: {
      enabled: true,
    },
  },
  emailAndPassword: {
    enabled: true,
  },
  trustedOrigins: ["http://localhost:3000", "http://localhost:3001"],
  socialProviders: {
    google: {
      clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID as string,
      clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET as string,
      callbackUrl: "http://localhost:3000/auth/google/callback",
    },
  },
  plugins: [
    {
      id: "s-user",
      schema: {
        user: {
          fields: {
            role: {
              type: "string",
            },
          },
        },
      },
    },
  ],
  // Refer to the api documentation for more configuration options
});
