Running npx @better-auth/cli@latest generate does nothing.

I'm trying to set up my user schema and using drizzle and pg. When i run the command to create the migration file, it just installs the cli and nothing happens. Doesnt matter if i add flags or not. Has anyone experienced this?

How to Ensure Organization List API is authorized

I'm currently trying to use Better Auth and pair it with TanStack Query to optimize request caching as I want to dedupe multiple of the same requests that I see firing in my application. The question I have is, instead of using the client.useListOrganizations hook API that the docs recommend, I am using the raw client.organization.list API and wrapping that within the TanStack Query function like so: ```ts...

authClient.GetSessions() returning null for user data and session data

I have an issue where getsessions function of the authClient is returning null. I am trying to sign up/in a user with google. The auth flow seems to work ie I get a session, user and account stored in my database. I also get the onsuccess handler called after signIn. The issue is, the data is null ie const {data} = authClient.getSession(). I am trying to read the userid so I can send other requests to the database. Here is my auth context handler: https://github.com/zessu/honoapp/blob/master/packages/frontend/src/authContext.tsx issue on line 22 Here is the backend Auth config https://github.com/zessu/honoapp/blob/master/packages/backend/auth.ts...

Solution:

I fixed this. Issue was with the cookie settings , specifically domain settings thats why it was not being returned Anyone let me know if you have a similar issue I can try help

Enforce Email Domain Restriction with Google Sign-In

https://www.better-auth.com/docs/concepts/hooks#example-enforce-email-domain-restriction Is there an easy way to do the same as the example above, but when using Google as a social sign in? I use Google Workspace at my work and we have custom domains, so I want to be able to verify if we're logging in with a Google account from that workspace. I'd like to be able to change where I'm sending the user depending on their email. I've tried many things, like throwing APIError inside of mapProfileToUser or getUserInfo, but it doesn't trigger a redirection to /api/auth/error, which I could have short-circuited to maybe do what I want, but it didn't work out....
