Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

To Reproduce

Create a next app and deploy to Vercel without BETTER_AUTH_URL

Current vs. Expected behavior

Problems with secure cookies.
When deploying to prod, cookies are not set to secure if BETTER_AUTH_URL is not set.
I assume is becouse createCookieGetter is not resolving to the else condition based on the defaults

What version of Better Auth are you using?

1.2.4

Provide environment information

Next.js app
Deployed on Vercel
Using only google sign in

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

Package, Client

Auth config (if applicable)

export const auth =
    betterAuth({
        database: surrealAdapter(db),
        socialProviders: {
            google: {
                clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID as string,
                clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET as string,
            },
        },
    });

@PolarBearEs commented on GitHub (Mar 25, 2025):

Also docs state that baseulr: If not explicitly set, the system will check for the environment variable process.env.BETTER_AUTH_URL. If not set, it will throw an error.

But also states
Set Environment Variables
Create a .env file in the root of your project and add the following environment variables:
...
Set Base URL (optional)
BETTER_AUTH_URL=http://localhost:3000 #Base URL of your app
