@softeneers/auth

Authentication built on better-auth: a configured server instance plus Express/Node helpers.

Usage

import { createAuth, toNodeHandler, getSession } from "@softeneers/auth";

export const auth = createAuth({
  database: pool, // a mysql2 Pool (e.g. from your DB layer), Kysely dialect, or adapter
  secret: env.AUTH_SECRET,
  baseURL: env.BASE_URL,
});

// Express: mount better-auth's routes
app.all("/api/auth/*", toNodeHandler(auth));

// Read the current session in a route
app.get("/me", async (req, res) => {
  const session = await getSession(auth, req.headers);
  res.json(session); // null when unauthenticated
});

API

• createAuth(options) — better-auth instance; email+password enabled by default, every option overridable.
• getSession(auth, headers) — session payload (or null) from Node headers.
• Re-exports toNodeHandler, fromNodeHeaders, BetterAuthError, and the Auth / AuthOptions types.

Pair with @softeneers/db for the database and @softeneers/env to validate AUTH_SECRET / BASE_URL. A login/register UI for the next-fullstack template is tracked in the roadmap.
