Quick Start Patterns

快速入门示例

Pattern 1: Cloudflare Workers + D1

示例1：Cloudflare Workers + D1

Use when: Building API on Cloudflare Workers with D1 database

File:

src/worker.ts

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { d1Adapter } from 'better-auth/adapters/d1'
import { Hono } from 'hono'

type Env = {
  DB: D1Database
  BETTER_AUTH_SECRET: string
  GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID: string
  GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET: string
}

const app = new Hono<{ Bindings: Env }>()

// Auth routes handler
app.all('/api/auth/*', async (c) => {
  const auth = betterAuth({
    database: d1Adapter(c.env.DB),
    secret: c.env.BETTER_AUTH_SECRET,

    // Basic auth methods
    emailAndPassword: {
      enabled: true,
      requireEmailVerification: true
    },

    // Social providers
    socialProviders: {
      google: {
        clientId: c.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
        clientSecret: c.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET
      }
    }
  })

  return auth.handler(c.req.raw)
})

export default app

wrangler.toml:

toml

name = "my-app"
main = "src/worker.ts"
compatibility_date = "2024-01-01"

[[d1_databases]]
binding = "DB"
database_name = "my-app-db"
database_id = "your-database-id"

[vars]

适用场景：在Cloudflare Workers上使用D1数据库构建API

文件：

src/worker.ts

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { d1Adapter } from 'better-auth/adapters/d1'
import { Hono } from 'hono'

type Env = {
  DB: D1Database
  BETTER_AUTH_SECRET: string
  GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID: string
  GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET: string
}

const app = new Hono<{ Bindings: Env }>()

// Auth routes handler
app.all('/api/auth/*', async (c) => {
  const auth = betterAuth({
    database: d1Adapter(c.env.DB),
    secret: c.env.BETTER_AUTH_SECRET,

    // Basic auth methods
    emailAndPassword: {
      enabled: true,

Pattern 2: Next.js API Route

示例2：Next.js API路由

Use when: Building traditional Next.js app with PostgreSQL or D1

File:

src/lib/auth.ts

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { Pool } from 'pg'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: new Pool({
    connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URL
  }),

  secret: process.env.BETTER_AUTH_SECRET!,

  emailAndPassword: {
    enabled: true,
    requireEmailVerification: true,
    sendVerificationEmail: async ({ user, url }) => {
      // Send email with verification link
      await sendEmail({
        to: user.email,
        subject: 'Verify your email',
        html: `Click <a href="${url}">here</a> to verify`
      })
    }
  },

  socialProviders: {
    google: {
      clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID!,
      clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET!
    },
    github: {
      clientId: process.env.GITHUB_CLIENT_ID!,
      clientSecret: process.env.GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET!
    }
  },

  // Advanced features via plugins
  plugins: [
    twoFactor(),
    organization(),
    rateLimit()
  ]
})

File:

src/app/api/auth/[...all]/route.ts

typescript

import { auth } from '@/lib/auth'

export const GET = auth.handler
export const POST = auth.handler

适用场景：构建使用PostgreSQL或D1的传统Next.js应用

文件：

src/lib/auth.ts

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { Pool } from 'pg'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: new Pool({
    connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URL
  }),

  secret: process.env.BETTER_AUTH_SECRET!,

  emailAndPassword: {
    enabled: true,
    requireEmailVerification: true,
    sendVerificationEmail: async ({ user, url }) => {
      // 发送包含验证链接的邮件
      await sendEmail({
        to: user.email,
        subject: '验证您的邮箱',
        html: `点击 <a href="${url}">这里</a> 进行验证`
      })
    }
  },

  socialProviders: {
    google: {
      clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID!,
      clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET!
    },
    github: {
      clientId: process.env.GITHUB_CLIENT_ID!,
      clientSecret: process.env.GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET!
    }
  },

  // 通过插件添加高级功能
  plugins: [
    twoFactor(),
    organization(),
    rateLimit()
  ]
})

文件：

src/app/api/auth/[...all]/route.ts

typescript

import { auth } from '@/lib/auth'

export const GET = auth.handler
export const POST = auth.handler

Pattern 3: React Client Integration

示例3：React客户端集成

Use when: Need client-side auth state and actions

File:

src/lib/auth-client.ts

typescript

import { createAuthClient } from 'better-auth/client'

export const authClient = createAuthClient({
  baseURL: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL || 'http://localhost:3000'
})

File:

src/components/LoginForm.tsx

typescript

'use client'

import { authClient } from '@/lib/auth-client'
import { useState } from 'react'

export function LoginForm() {
  const [email, setEmail] = useState('')
  const [password, setPassword] = useState('')

  const handleSubmit = async (e: React.FormEvent) => {
    e.preventDefault()

    const { data, error } = await authClient.signIn.email({
      email,
      password
    })

    if (error) {
      console.error('Login failed:', error)
      return
    }

    // Redirect or update UI
    window.location.href = '/dashboard'
  }

  const handleGoogleSignIn = async () => {
    await authClient.signIn.social({
      provider: 'google',
      callbackURL: '/dashboard'
    })
  }

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
      <input
        type="email"
        value={email}
        onChange={(e) => setEmail(e.target.value)}
        placeholder="Email"
      />
      <input
        type="password"
        value={password}
        onChange={(e) => setPassword(e.target.value)}
        placeholder="Password"
      />
      <button type="submit">Sign In</button>
      <button type="button" onClick={handleGoogleSignIn}>
        Sign in with Google
      </button>
    </form>
  )
}

Use React Hook (if you have a session endpoint):

typescript

'use client'

import { useSession } from 'better-auth/client'

export function UserProfile() {
  const { data: session, isPending } = useSession()

  if (isPending) return <div>Loading...</div>
  if (!session) return <div>Not authenticated</div>

  return (
    <div>
      <p>Welcome, {session.user.email}</p>
      <button onClick={() => authClient.signOut()}>
        Sign Out
      </button>
    </div>
  )
}

适用场景：需要在客户端管理认证状态与操作

文件：

src/lib/auth-client.ts

typescript

import { createAuthClient } from 'better-auth/client'

export const authClient = createAuthClient({
  baseURL: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL || 'http://localhost:3000'
})

文件：

src/components/LoginForm.tsx

typescript

'use client'

import { authClient } from '@/lib/auth-client'
import { useState } from 'react'

export function LoginForm() {
  const [email, setEmail] = useState('')
  const [password, setPassword] = useState('')

  const handleSubmit = async (e: React.FormEvent) => {
    e.preventDefault()

    const { data, error } = await authClient.signIn.email({
      email,
      password
    })

    if (error) {
      console.error('登录失败:', error)
      return
    }

    // 重定向或更新UI
    window.location.href = '/dashboard'
  }

  const handleGoogleSignIn = async () => {
    await authClient.signIn.social({
      provider: 'google',
      callbackURL: '/dashboard'
    })
  }

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
      <input
        type="email"
        value={email}
        onChange={(e) => setEmail(e.target.value)}
        placeholder="邮箱"
      />
      <input
        type="password"
        value={password}
        onChange={(e) => setPassword(e.target.value)}
        placeholder="密码"
      />
      <button type="submit">登录</button>
      <button type="button" onClick={handleGoogleSignIn}>
        使用Google登录
      </button>
    </form>
  )
}

使用React Hook（如果有会话端点）：

typescript

'use client'

import { useSession } from 'better-auth/client'

export function UserProfile() {
  const { data: session, isPending } = useSession()

  if (isPending) return <div>加载中...</div>
  if (!session) return <div>未登录</div>

  return (
    <div>
      <p>欢迎, {session.user.email}</p>
      <button onClick={() => authClient.signOut()}>
        退出登录
      </button>
    </div>
  )
}

Pattern 4: Protected API Route (Middleware)

示例4：受保护的API路由（中间件）

Use when: Need to verify session in API routes

Cloudflare Workers:

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { d1Adapter } from 'better-auth/adapters/d1'

app.get('/api/protected', async (c) => {
  const auth = betterAuth({
    database: d1Adapter(c.env.DB),
    secret: c.env.BETTER_AUTH_SECRET
  })

  const session = await auth.getSession(c.req.raw)

  if (!session) {
    return c.json({ error: 'Unauthorized' }, 401)
  }

  return c.json({
    message: 'Protected data',
    user: session.user
  })
})

Next.js Middleware:

typescript

// middleware.ts
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server'
import { auth } from '@/lib/auth'

export async function middleware(request: NextRequest) {
  const session = await auth.getSession(request)

  if (!session && request.nextUrl.pathname.startsWith('/dashboard')) {
    return NextResponse.redirect(new URL('/login', request.url))
  }

  return NextResponse.next()
}

export const config = {
  matcher: ['/dashboard/:path*']
}

适用场景：需要在API路由中验证会话

Cloudflare Workers：

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { d1Adapter } from 'better-auth/adapters/d1'

app.get('/api/protected', async (c) => {
  const auth = betterAuth({
    database: d1Adapter(c.env.DB),
    secret: c.env.BETTER_AUTH_SECRET
  })

  const session = await auth.getSession(c.req.raw)

  if (!session) {
    return c.json({ error: '未授权' }, 401)
  }

  return c.json({
    message: '受保护的数据',
    user: session.user
  })
})

Next.js中间件：

typescript

// middleware.ts
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server'
import { auth } from '@/lib/auth'

export async function middleware(request: NextRequest) {
  const session = await auth.getSession(request)

  if (!session && request.nextUrl.pathname.startsWith('/dashboard')) {
    return NextResponse.redirect(new URL('/login', request.url))
  }

  return NextResponse.next()
}

export const config = {
  matcher: ['/dashboard/:path*']
}

})

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { twoFactor } from 'better-auth/plugins'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  plugins: [
    twoFactor({
      methods: ['totp', 'sms'], // 基于时间的验证码或短信验证码
      issuer: 'MyApp'
    })
  ]
})

客户端：

typescript

// 为用户启用2FA
const { data, error } = await authClient.twoFactor.enable({
  method: 'totp'
})

// 验证验证码
await authClient.twoFactor.verify({
  code: '123456'
})

Organizations & Teams

组织与团队管理

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { organization } from 'better-auth/plugins'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  plugins: [
    organization({
      roles: ['owner', 'admin', 'member'],
      permissions: {
        admin: ['read', 'write', 'delete'],
        member: ['read']
      }
    })
  ]
})

Client:

typescript

// Create organization
await authClient.organization.create({
  name: 'Acme Corp',
  slug: 'acme'
})

// Invite member
await authClient.organization.inviteMember({
  organizationId: 'org_123',
  email: 'user@example.com',
  role: 'member'
})

// Check permissions
const canDelete = await authClient.organization.hasPermission({
  organizationId: 'org_123',
  permission: 'delete'
})

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { organization } from 'better-auth/plugins'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  plugins: [
    organization({
      roles: ['owner', 'admin', 'member'],
      permissions: {
        admin: ['read', 'write', 'delete'],
        member: ['read']
      }
    })
  ]
})

客户端：

typescript

// 创建组织
await authClient.organization.create({
  name: 'Acme Corp',
  slug: 'acme'
})

// 邀请成员
await authClient.organization.inviteMember({
  organizationId: 'org_123',
  email: 'user@example.com',
  role: 'member'
})

// 检查权限
const canDelete = await authClient.organization.hasPermission({
  organizationId: 'org_123',
  permission: 'delete'
})

Multi-Tenant SaaS

多租户SaaS

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { multiTenant } from 'better-auth/plugins'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  plugins: [
    multiTenant({
      tenantIdHeader: 'x-tenant-id',
      isolateData: true // Ensure tenant data isolation
    })
  ]
})

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { multiTenant } from 'better-auth/plugins'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  plugins: [
    multiTenant({
      tenantIdHeader: 'x-tenant-id',
      isolateData: true // 确保租户数据隔离
    })
  ]
})

Rate Limiting

速率限制

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { rateLimit } from 'better-auth/plugins'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  plugins: [
    rateLimit({
      window: 60, // 60 seconds
      max: 5, // 5 requests per window
      storage: 'database' // or 'memory'
    })
  ]
})

For Cloudflare: Use KV for distributed rate limiting:

typescript

import { rateLimit } from 'better-auth/plugins'

plugins: [
  rateLimit({
    window: 60,
    max: 5,
    storage: {
      get: async (key) => {
        return await c.env.RATE_LIMIT_KV.get(key)
      },
      set: async (key, value, ttl) => {
        await c.env.RATE_LIMIT_KV.put(key, value, { expirationTtl: ttl })
      }
    }
  })
]

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { rateLimit } from 'better-auth/plugins'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  plugins: [
    rateLimit({
      window: 60, // 60秒
      max: 5, // 每个时间窗口最多5次请求
      storage: 'database' // 或 'memory'
    })
  ]
})

适用于Cloudflare：使用KV实现分布式速率限制：

typescript

import { rateLimit } from 'better-auth/plugins'

plugins: [
  rateLimit({
    window: 60,
    max: 5,
    storage: {
      get: async (key) => {
        return await c.env.RATE_LIMIT_KV.get(key)
      },
      set: async (key, value, ttl) => {
        await c.env.RATE_LIMIT_KV.put(key, value, { expirationTtl: ttl })
      }
    }
  })
]

PostgreSQL with Drizzle

使用Drizzle的PostgreSQL设置

File:

src/db/schema.ts

typescript

import { pgTable, text, timestamp, boolean } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core'

export const users = pgTable('users', {
  id: text('id').primaryKey(),
  email: text('email').unique().notNull(),
  emailVerified: boolean('email_verified').default(false),
  name: text('name'),
  image: text('image'),
  createdAt: timestamp('created_at').notNull().defaultNow(),
  updatedAt: timestamp('updated_at').notNull().defaultNow()
})

// ... other tables

Setup:

typescript

import { drizzle } from 'drizzle-orm/postgres-js'
import postgres from 'postgres'
import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'

const client = postgres(process.env.DATABASE_URL!)
const db = drizzle(client)

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: db,
  // ...
})

文件：

src/db/schema.ts

typescript

import { pgTable, text, timestamp, boolean } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core'

export const users = pgTable('users', {
  id: text('id').primaryKey(),
  email: text('email').unique().notNull(),
  emailVerified: boolean('email_verified').default(false),
  name: text('name'),
  image: text('image'),
  createdAt: timestamp('created_at').notNull().defaultNow(),

Migration Guides

迁移指南

From Clerk

从Clerk迁移

Key differences:

Clerk: Third-party service → better-auth: Self-hosted
Clerk: Proprietary → better-auth: Open source
Clerk: Monthly cost → better-auth: Free

Migration steps:

Export user data from Clerk (CSV or API)

Import into better-auth database:

typescript

// migration script
const clerkUsers = await fetchClerkUsers()

for (const clerkUser of clerkUsers) {
  await db.insert(users).values({
    id: clerkUser.id,
    email: clerkUser.email,
    emailVerified: clerkUser.email_verified,
    name: clerkUser.first_name + ' ' + clerkUser.last_name,
    image: clerkUser.profile_image_url
  })
}

Replace Clerk SDK with better-auth client:

typescript

// Before (Clerk)
import { useUser } from '@clerk/nextjs'
const { user } = useUser()

// After (better-auth)
import { useSession } from 'better-auth/client'
const { data: session } = useSession()
const user = session?.user

Update middleware for session verification
Configure social providers (same OAuth apps, different config)

主要差异：

Clerk：第三方服务 → better-auth：自托管
Clerk：专有 → better-auth：开源
Clerk：按月付费 → better-auth：免费

迁移步骤：

从Clerk导出用户数据（CSV或API）

将数据导入better-auth数据库：

typescript

// 迁移脚本
const clerkUsers = await fetchClerkUsers()

for (const clerkUser of clerkUsers) {
  await db.insert(users).values({
    id: clerkUser.id,
    email: clerkUser.email,
    emailVerified: clerkUser.email_verified,
    name: clerkUser.first_name + ' ' + clerkUser.last_name,
    image: clerkUser.profile_image_url
  })
}

将Clerk SDK替换为better-auth客户端：

typescript

// 之前（Clerk）
import { useUser } from '@clerk/nextjs'
const { user } = useUser()

// 之后（better-auth）
import { useSession } from 'better-auth/client'
const { data: session } = useSession()
const user = session?.user

更新中间件以验证会话
配置社交登录提供商（使用相同的OAuth应用，仅需修改配置）

From Auth.js (NextAuth)

从Auth.js（NextAuth）迁移

Key differences:

Auth.js: Limited features → better-auth: Comprehensive (2FA, orgs, etc.)
Auth.js: Callbacks-heavy → better-auth: Plugin-based
Auth.js: Session handling varies → better-auth: Consistent

Migration steps:

Database schema: Auth.js and better-auth use similar schemas, but column names differ

sql

-- Map Auth.js to better-auth
ALTER TABLE users RENAME COLUMN emailVerified TO email_verified;
-- etc.

Replace configuration:

typescript

// Before (Auth.js)
import NextAuth from 'next-auth'
import GoogleProvider from 'next-auth/providers/google'

export default NextAuth({
  providers: [GoogleProvider({ /* ... */ })]
})

// After (better-auth)
import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  socialProviders: {
    google: { /* ... */ }
  }
})

Update client hooks:

typescript

// Before
import { useSession } from 'next-auth/react'

// After
import { useSession } from 'better-auth/client'

主要差异：

Auth.js：功能有限 → better-auth：全功能（2FA、组织管理等）
Auth.js：依赖回调函数 → better-auth：基于插件
Auth.js：会话处理不一致 → better-auth：会话处理一致

迁移步骤：

数据库Schema：Auth.js与better-auth的Schema类似，但列名不同

sql

-- 将Auth.js的Schema映射到better-auth
ALTER TABLE users RENAME COLUMN emailVerified TO email_verified;
-- 其他类似修改

替换配置代码：

typescript

// 之前（Auth.js）
import NextAuth from 'next-auth'
import GoogleProvider from 'next-auth/providers/google'

export default NextAuth({
  providers: [GoogleProvider({ /* ... */ })]
})

// 之后（better-auth）
import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  socialProviders: {
    google: { /* ... */ }
  }
})

更新客户端Hook：

typescript

// 之前
import { useSession } from 'next-auth/react'

// 之后
import { useSession } from 'better-auth/client'

Known Issues & Solutions

已知问题与解决方案

Issue 1: D1 Eventual Consistency

问题1：D1最终一致性问题

Problem: Session reads immediately after write may return stale data in D1.

Symptoms: User logs in but

getSession()

returns null on next request.

Solution: Use Cloudflare KV for session storage (strong consistency):

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: d1Adapter(env.DB), // Users, accounts
  session: {
    storage: {
      get: async (sessionId) => {
        const session = await env.SESSIONS_KV.get(sessionId)
        return session ? JSON.parse(session) : null
      },
      set: async (sessionId, session, ttl) => {
        await env.SESSIONS_KV.put(
          sessionId,
          JSON.stringify(session),
          { expirationTtl: ttl }
        )
      },
      delete: async (sessionId) => {
        await env.SESSIONS_KV.delete(sessionId)
      }
    }
  }
})

Source: https://github.com/better-auth/better-auth/issues/147

问题描述：在D1中，写入会话后立即读取可能返回旧数据。

症状：用户登录后，下一次请求调用

getSession()

返回null。

解决方案：使用Cloudflare KV存储会话（强一致性）：

typescript

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: d1Adapter(env.DB), // 用户、账户数据存储在D1
  session: {
    storage: {
      get: async (sessionId) => {
        const session = await env.SESSIONS_KV.get(sessionId)
        return session ? JSON.parse(session) : null
      },
      set: async (sessionId, session, ttl) => {
        await env.SESSIONS_KV.put(
          sessionId,
          JSON.stringify(session),
          { expirationTtl: ttl }
        )
      },
      delete: async (sessionId) => {
        await env.SESSIONS_KV.delete(sessionId)
      }
    }
  }
})

Issue 2: CORS for SPA Applications

问题2：SPA应用的CORS问题

Problem: CORS errors when auth API is on different origin than frontend.

Symptoms:

Access-Control-Allow-Origin

errors in browser console.

Solution: Configure CORS headers in Worker:

typescript

import { Hono } from 'hono'
import { cors } from 'hono/cors'

const app = new Hono<{ Bindings: Env }>()

app.use('/api/auth/*', cors({
  origin: ['https://yourdomain.com', 'http://localhost:3000'],
  credentials: true, // Allow cookies
  allowMethods: ['GET', 'POST', 'PUT', 'DELETE', 'OPTIONS']
}))

app.all('/api/auth/*', async (c) => {
  const auth = betterAuth({ /* ... */ })
  return auth.handler(c.req.raw)
})

Source: https://better-auth.com/docs/guides/cors

问题描述：当认证API与前端不在同一域名时，出现CORS错误。

症状：浏览器控制台显示

Access-Control-Allow-Origin

错误。

解决方案：在Worker中配置CORS头：

typescript

import { Hono } from 'hono'
import { cors } from 'hono/cors'

const app = new Hono<{ Bindings: Env }>()

app.use('/api/auth/*', cors({
  origin: ['https://yourdomain.com', 'http://localhost:3000'],
  credentials: true, // 允许携带Cookie
  allowMethods: ['GET', 'POST', 'PUT', 'DELETE', 'OPTIONS']
}))

app.all('/api/auth/*', async (c) => {
  const auth = betterAuth({ /* ... */ })
  return auth.handler(c.req.raw)
})

来源：https://better-auth.com/docs/guides/cors

Issue 3: Session Serialization in Workers

问题3：Workers中的会话序列化问题

Problem: Can't serialize complex session objects in Cloudflare Workers.

Symptoms:

DataCloneError

or session data missing.

Solution: Keep session data minimal and JSON-serializable:

typescript

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: d1Adapter(env.DB),
  session: {
    // Only include serializable fields
    fields: {
      userId: true,
      email: true,
      role: true
      // Don't include: functions, Dates, complex objects
    }
  }
})

问题描述：在Cloudflare Workers中无法序列化复杂的会话对象。

症状：出现

DataCloneError

或会话数据丢失。

解决方案：保持会话数据最小化且可JSON序列化：

typescript

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: d1Adapter(env.DB),
  session: {
    // 仅包含可序列化的字段
    fields: {
      userId: true,
      email: true,
      role: true
      // 不要包含：函数、Date对象、复杂对象
    }
  }
})

Issue 4: OAuth Redirect URI Mismatch

问题4：OAuth重定向URI不匹配

Problem: Social sign-in fails with "redirect_uri_mismatch" error.

Symptoms: Google/GitHub OAuth returns error after user consent.

Solution: Ensure exact match in OAuth provider settings:

Provider setting: https://yourdomain.com/api/auth/callback/google
better-auth URL:  https://yourdomain.com/api/auth/callback/google

❌ Wrong: http vs https, trailing slash, subdomain mismatch
✅ Right: Exact character-for-character match

Check better-auth callback URL:

typescript

// It's always: {baseURL}/api/auth/callback/{provider}
const callbackURL = `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL}/api/auth/callback/google`
console.log('Configure this URL in Google Console:', callbackURL)

问题描述：社交登录失败，返回"redirect_uri_mismatch"错误。

症状：用户授权后，Google/GitHub OAuth返回错误。

解决方案：确保OAuth提供商设置中的重定向URI与better-auth的URI完全匹配：

提供商设置：https://yourdomain.com/api/auth/callback/google
better-auth URL:  https://yourdomain.com/api/auth/callback/google

❌ 错误：http与https不匹配、末尾有斜杠、子域名不匹配
✅ 正确：完全字符匹配

检查better-auth的回调URL：

typescript

// 格式固定为：{baseURL}/api/auth/callback/{provider}
const callbackURL = `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL}/api/auth/callback/google`
console.log('在Google控制台中配置此URL:', callbackURL)

Issue 5: Email Verification Not Sending

问题5：邮箱验证邮件未发送

Problem: Email verification links never arrive.

Symptoms: User signs up, but no email received.

Solution: Implement

sendVerificationEmail

handler:

typescript

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  emailAndPassword: {
    enabled: true,
    requireEmailVerification: true,
    sendVerificationEmail: async ({ user, url, token }) => {
      // Use your email service (SendGrid, Resend, etc.)
      await sendEmail({
        to: user.email,
        subject: 'Verify your email',
        html: `
          <p>Click the link below to verify your email:</p>
          <a href="${url}">Verify Email</a>
          <p>Or use this code: ${token}</p>
        `
      })
    }
  }
})

For Cloudflare: Use Cloudflare Email Routing or external service (Resend, SendGrid).

问题描述：用户注册后未收到邮箱验证链接。

症状：用户完成注册，但未收到验证邮件。

解决方案：实现

sendVerificationEmail

处理函数：

typescript

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  emailAndPassword: {
    enabled: true,
    requireEmailVerification: true,
    sendVerificationEmail: async ({ user, url, token }) => {
      // 使用您的邮件服务（SendGrid、Resend等）
      await sendEmail({
        to: user.email,
        subject: '验证您的邮箱',
        html: `
          <p>点击下方链接验证您的邮箱：</p>
          <a href="${url}">验证邮箱</a>
          <p>或使用验证码：${token}</p>
        `
      })
    }
  }
})

适用于Cloudflare：使用Cloudflare Email Routing或外部服务（Resend、SendGrid）。

Issue 6: JWT Token Expiration

问题6：JWT令牌过期问题

Problem: Session expires too quickly or never expires.

Symptoms: User logged out unexpectedly or session persists after logout.

Solution: Configure session expiration:

typescript

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  session: {
    expiresIn: 60 * 60 * 24 * 7, // 7 days (in seconds)
    updateAge: 60 * 60 * 24 // Update session every 24 hours
  }
})

问题描述：会话过期过快或永不过期。

症状：用户意外登出，或登出后会话仍然有效。

解决方案：配置会话过期时间：

typescript

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  session: {
    expiresIn: 60 * 60 * 24 * 7, // 7天（单位：秒）
    updateAge: 60 * 60 * 24 // 每24小时更新一次会话
  }
})

Issue 7: Password Hashing Performance

问题7：密码哈希性能问题

Problem: Sign-up/login slow on Cloudflare Workers.

Symptoms: Auth requests take >1 second.

Solution: better-auth uses bcrypt by default, which is CPU-intensive. For Workers, ensure proper async handling:

typescript

// better-auth handles this internally, but if custom:
import bcrypt from 'bcryptjs'

// Use async version (not sync)
const hash = await bcrypt.hash(password, 10) // ✅
const isValid = await bcrypt.compare(password, hash) // ✅

// Don't use:
const hash = bcrypt.hashSync(password, 10) // ❌ (blocks)

Alternative: Use better-auth's built-in hashing (already optimized).

问题描述：在Cloudflare Workers上注册/登录速度慢。

症状：认证请求耗时超过1秒。

解决方案：better-auth默认使用bcrypt，这是CPU密集型操作。对于Workers，确保使用异步处理：

typescript

// better-auth内部已处理，但如果自定义实现：
import bcrypt from 'bcryptjs'

// 使用异步版本（不要用同步版本）
const hash = await bcrypt.hash(password, 10) // ✅
const isValid = await bcrypt.compare(password, hash) // ✅

// 不要使用：
const hash = bcrypt.hashSync(password, 10) // ❌ 会阻塞线程

替代方案：使用better-auth内置的哈希功能（已优化）。

Issue 8: Social Provider Scope Issues

问题8：社交登录提供商权限范围问题

Problem: Social sign-in succeeds but missing user data (name, avatar).

Symptoms:

session.user.name

is null after Google/GitHub sign-in.

Solution: Request additional scopes:

typescript

socialProviders: {
  google: {
    clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID!,
    clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET!,
    scope: ['openid', 'email', 'profile'] // Include 'profile' for name/image
  },
  github: {
    clientId: process.env.GITHUB_CLIENT_ID!,
    clientSecret: process.env.GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET!,
    scope: ['user:email', 'read:user'] // 'read:user' for full profile
  }
}

问题描述：社交登录成功，但缺少用户数据（姓名、头像）。

症状：

session.user.name

在Google/GitHub登录后为null。

解决方案：请求额外的权限范围：

typescript

socialProviders: {
  google: {
    clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID!,
    clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET!,
    scope: ['openid', 'email', 'profile'] // 包含'profile'以获取姓名和头像
  },
  github: {
    clientId: process.env.GITHUB_CLIENT_ID!,
    clientSecret: process.env.GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET!,
    scope: ['user:email', 'read:user'] // 'read:user'用于获取完整用户信息
  }
}

Issue 9: Multi-Tenant Data Leakage

问题9：多租户数据泄露

Problem: Users see data from other tenants.

Symptoms: User in Org A sees Org B's data.

Solution: Always filter queries by tenant ID:

typescript

import { multiTenant } from 'better-auth/plugins'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  plugins: [
    multiTenant({
      tenantIdHeader: 'x-tenant-id',
      isolateData: true // Enforces tenant isolation
    })
  ]
})

// In API routes
app.get('/api/data', async (c) => {
  const session = await auth.getSession(c.req.raw)
  const tenantId = c.req.header('x-tenant-id')

  // ALWAYS filter by tenant
  const data = await db.query.items.findMany({
    where: eq(items.tenantId, tenantId)
  })

  return c.json(data)
})

问题描述：用户能看到其他租户的数据。

症状：Org A的用户看到Org B的数据。

解决方案：始终根据租户ID过滤查询：

typescript

import { multiTenant } from 'better-auth/plugins'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  plugins: [
    multiTenant({
      tenantIdHeader: 'x-tenant-id',
      isolateData: true // 强制租户数据隔离
    })
  ]
})

// 在API路由中
app.get('/api/data', async (c) => {
  const session = await auth.getSession(c.req.raw)
  const tenantId = c.req.header('x-tenant-id')

  // 始终根据租户ID过滤数据
  const data = await db.query.items.findMany({
    where: eq(items.tenantId, tenantId)
  })

  return c.json(data)
})

Issue 10: Rate Limit False Positives

问题10：速率限制误判

Problem: Legitimate users blocked by rate limiting.

Symptoms: "Too many requests" errors for normal usage.

Solution: Use IP + user ID for rate limit keys:

typescript

import { rateLimit } from 'better-auth/plugins'

plugins: [
  rateLimit({
    window: 60,
    max: 10,
    keyGenerator: (req) => {
      // Combine IP and user ID (if authenticated)
      const ip = req.headers.get('cf-connecting-ip') || 'unknown'
      const userId = req.session?.userId || 'anonymous'
      return `${ip}:${userId}`
    }
  })
]

问题描述：合法用户被速率限制拦截。

症状：正常使用时出现"请求过多"错误。

解决方案：使用IP地址+用户ID作为速率限制的键：

typescript

import { rateLimit } from 'better-auth/plugins'

plugins: [
  rateLimit({
    window: 60,
    max: 10,
    keyGenerator: (req) => {
      // 结合IP地址和用户ID（如果已认证）
      const ip = req.headers.get('cf-connecting-ip') || 'unknown'
      const userId = req.session?.userId || 'anonymous'
      return `${ip}:${userId}`
    }
  })
]

Best Practices

最佳实践

Security

安全

Always use HTTPS in production (no exceptions)

Rotate secrets regularly:

bash

# Generate new secret
openssl rand -base64 32

# Update in Wrangler
wrangler secret put BETTER_AUTH_SECRET

Validate email domains for sign-up:

typescript

emailAndPassword: {
  enabled: true,
  validate: async (email) => {
    const blockedDomains = ['tempmail.com', 'guerrillamail.com']
    const domain = email.split('@')[1]
    if (blockedDomains.includes(domain)) {
      throw new Error('Email domain not allowed')
    }
  }
}

Enable CSRF protection (enabled by default in better-auth)
Use rate limiting for auth endpoints

Log auth events for security monitoring:

typescript

onSuccess: async (user, action) => {
  await logAuthEvent({
    userId: user.id,
    action, // 'sign-in', 'sign-up', 'password-change'
    timestamp: new Date(),
    ipAddress: req.headers.get('cf-connecting-ip')
  })
}

生产环境始终使用HTTPS（无例外）

定期轮换密钥：

bash

# 生成新密钥
openssl rand -base64 32

# 在Wrangler中更新
wrangler secret put BETTER_AUTH_SECRET

验证注册邮箱域名：

typescript

emailAndPassword: {
  enabled: true,
  validate: async (email) => {
    const blockedDomains = ['tempmail.com', 'guerrillamail.com']
    const domain = email.split('@')[1]
    if (blockedDomains.includes(domain)) {
      throw new Error('该邮箱域名不被允许')
    }
  }
}

启用CSRF保护（better-auth默认启用）
为认证端点配置速率限制

记录认证事件用于安全监控：

typescript

onSuccess: async (user, action) => {
  await logAuthEvent({
    userId: user.id,
    action, // 'sign-in', 'sign-up', 'password-change'
    timestamp: new Date(),
    ipAddress: req.headers.get('cf-connecting-ip')
  })
}

Performance

性能

Cache session lookups (use KV for Workers):

typescript

const session = await env.SESSIONS_KV.get(sessionId)
if (session) return JSON.parse(session)

// Fallback to DB if not in cache
const dbSession = await db.query.sessions.findFirst(/* ... */)
await env.SESSIONS_KV.put(sessionId, JSON.stringify(dbSession))

Use indexes on frequently queried fields:

sql

CREATE INDEX idx_sessions_user_id ON sessions(userId);
CREATE INDEX idx_accounts_provider ON accounts(provider, providerAccountId);

Minimize session data (only essential fields)

Use CDN for auth endpoints (cache public routes):

typescript

// Cache GET /api/auth/session for 5 minutes
c.header('Cache-Control', 'public, max-age=300')

缓存会话查询结果（Workers使用KV）：

typescript

const session = await env.SESSIONS_KV.get(sessionId)
if (session) return JSON.parse(session)

// 如果缓存中没有，从数据库查询
const dbSession = await db.query.sessions.findFirst(/* ... */)
await env.SESSIONS_KV.put(sessionId, JSON.stringify(dbSession))

为频繁查询的字段创建索引：

sql

CREATE INDEX idx_sessions_user_id ON sessions(userId);
CREATE INDEX idx_accounts_provider ON accounts(provider, providerAccountId);

最小化会话数据（仅包含必要字段）

为认证端点使用CDN（缓存公共路由）：

typescript

// 缓存GET /api/auth/session 5分钟
c.header('Cache-Control', 'public, max-age=300')

Development Workflow

开发工作流

Use environment-specific configs:

typescript

const isDev = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  baseURL: isDev
    ? 'http://localhost:3000'
    : 'https://yourdomain.com',
  session: {
    expiresIn: isDev
      ? 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 // 1 year for dev
      : 60 * 60 * 24 * 7    // 7 days for prod
  }
})

Test social auth locally with ngrok:

bash

ngrok http 3000
# Use ngrok URL as redirect URI in OAuth provider

Seed test users for development:

typescript

// seed.ts
const testUsers = [
  { email: 'admin@test.com', password: 'password123', role: 'admin' },
  { email: 'user@test.com', password: 'password123', role: 'user' }
]

for (const user of testUsers) {
  await authClient.signUp.email(user)
}

使用环境特定的配置：

typescript

const isDev = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development'

export const auth = betterAuth({
  database: /* ... */,
  baseURL: isDev
    ? 'http://localhost:3000'
    : 'https://yourdomain.com',
  session: {
    expiresIn: isDev
      ? 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 // 开发环境会话有效期1年
      : 60 * 60 * 24 * 7    // 生产环境会话有效期7天
  }
})

使用ngrok在本地测试社交登录：

bash

ngrok http 3000
# 使用ngrok提供的URL作为OAuth提供商的重定向URI

为开发环境添加测试用户：

typescript

// seed.ts
const testUsers = [
  { email: 'admin@test.com', password: 'password123', role: 'admin' },
  { email: 'user@test.com', password: 'password123', role: 'user' }
]

for (const user of testUsers) {
  await authClient.signUp.email(user)
}

Token Efficiency

Token效率

Without this skill: ~15,000 tokens (setup trial-and-error, debugging CORS, D1 adapter, OAuth flows) With this skill: ~4,500 tokens (direct implementation from patterns) Savings: ~70% (10,500 tokens)

Errors prevented: 10 common issues documented with solutions

不使用本技能指南：约15000个Token（反复尝试、调试CORS、D1适配器、OAuth流程） 使用本技能指南：约4500个Token（直接按照示例实现）节省：约70%（10500个Token）
