Better Auth

better-auth

Status: Production Ready Last Updated: 2026-04-08 Package: better-auth@1.6.0 (ESM-only) Dependencies: Drizzle ORM or Kysely (required for D1 complex use cases; D1 native support available in v1.5+)

Quick Start (5 Minutes)

Installation

Option 1: Drizzle ORM (Recommended)

bashCopy code
bun add better-auth drizzle-orm drizzle-kit

Option 2: Kysely

bashCopy code
bun add better-auth kysely @noxharmonium/kysely-d1

⚠️ v1.4.0+ Requirements

better-auth v1.4.0+ is ESM-only. Ensure:

package.json:

jsonCopy code
{
  "type": "module"
}

Upgrading from v1.3.x? Load references/migration-guide-1.4.0.md Upgrading from v1.4.x? Load references/migration-guide-1.5.0.md

⚠️ CRITICAL: D1 Adapter Requirements

v1.5.0+: D1 is now natively supported. Pass your D1 binding directly:

typescriptCopy code
// ✅ SIMPLEST - D1 native (v1.5.0+)
import { betterAuth } from "better-auth";

const auth = betterAuth({
    database: env.DB, // D1 binding, auto-detected
});

For complex schemas, use Drizzle ORM:

typescriptCopy code
// ✅ RECOMMENDED for complex schemas - Drizzle
import { drizzleAdapter } from "better-auth/adapters/drizzle";
import { drizzle } from "drizzle-orm/d1";

const auth = betterAuth({
    database: drizzleAdapter(drizzle(env.DB, { schema }), { provider: "sqlite" }),
});

typescriptCopy code
// ❌ WRONG - This doesn't exist
import { d1Adapter } from 'better-auth/adapters/d1'

Minimal Setup (Cloudflare Workers + Drizzle)

1. Create D1 Database:

bashCopy code
wrangler d1 create my-app-db

2. Define Schema (src/db/schema.ts):

typescriptCopy code
import { integer, sqliteTable, text } from "drizzle-orm/sqlite-core";

export const user = sqliteTable("user", {
  id: text().primaryKey(),
  name: text().notNull(),
  email: text().notNull().unique(),
  emailVerified: integer({ mode: "boolean" }).notNull().default(false),
  image: text(),
});

export const session = sqliteTable("session", {
  id: text().primaryKey(),
  userId: text().notNull().references(() => user.id, { onDelete: "cascade" }),
  token: text().notNull(),
  expiresAt: integer({ mode: "timestamp" }).notNull(),
});

// See references/database-schema.ts for complete schema

3. Initialize Auth (src/auth.ts):

typescriptCopy code
import { betterAuth } from "better-auth";
import { drizzleAdapter } from "better-auth/adapters/drizzle";
import { drizzle } from "drizzle-orm/d1";
import * as schema from "./db/schema";

export function createAuth(env: { DB: D1Database; BETTER_AUTH_SECRET: string }) {
  const db = drizzle(env.DB, { schema });

  return betterAuth({
    baseURL: env.BETTER_AUTH_URL,
    secret: env.BETTER_AUTH_SECRET,
    database: drizzleAdapter(db, { provider: "sqlite" }),
    emailAndPassword: { enabled: true },
  });
}

4. Create Worker (src/index.ts):

typescriptCopy code
import { Hono } from "hono";
import { createAuth } from "./auth";

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

app.all("/api/auth/*", async (c) => {
  const auth = createAuth(c.env);
  return auth.handler(c.req.raw);
});

export default app;

5. Deploy:

bashCopy code
bunx drizzle-kit generate
wrangler d1 migrations apply my-app-db --remote
wrangler deploy

Decision Tree

For code examples and syntax, always consult better-auth.com/docs.

Copy code
Is this a new/empty project?
├─ YES → New project setup
│   1. Identify framework (Next.js, Nuxt, Workers, etc.)
│   2. Choose database (D1, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MySQL)
│   3. Install better-auth + Drizzle/Kysely
│   4. Create auth.ts + auth-client.ts
│   5. Set up route handler (see Quick Start above)
│   6. Run migrations (Drizzle Kit for D1)
│   7. Add features via plugins (2FA, organizations, etc.)
│
└─ NO → Does project have existing auth?
    ├─ YES → Migration/enhancement
    │   • Audit current auth for gaps
    │   • Plan incremental migration
    │   • See references/framework-comparison.md for migration guides
    │
    └─ NO → Add auth to existing project
        1. Analyze project structure
        2. Install better-auth + adapter
        3. Create auth config (see Quick Start)
        4. Add route handler to existing routes
        5. Run schema migrations
        6. Integrate into existing pages/components

Critical Rules

MUST DO

✅ Use better-auth/minimal + adapter packages for smallest bundle (v1.5+) ✅ Use npx auth migrate and npx auth generate for CLI commands (v1.5+) ✅ Set BETTER_AUTH_SECRET via wrangler secret put ✅ Configure CORS with credentials: true ✅ Match OAuth callback URLs exactly (no trailing slash) ✅ Apply migrations to local D1 before wrangler dev ✅ Use camelCase column names in schema

NEVER DO

❌ Use d1Adapter (doesn't exist) ❌ Forget CORS credentials or mismatch OAuth URLs ❌ Use snake_case columns without CamelCasePlugin ❌ Skip local migrations or hardcode secrets ❌ Leave sendVerificationEmail unimplemented

⚠️ v1.5.0 Breaking Changes

API Key Plugin Moved:

typescriptCopy code
- import { apiKey } from "better-auth/plugins";
+ import { apiKey } from "@better-auth/api-key";

Schema: userId → referenceId, new configId field.

After Hooks: Database after-hooks now run post-transaction (not inside it).

Deprecated APIs Removed: Adapter → DBAdapter, InferUser/InferSession removed, @better-auth/core/utils split into subpath exports.

Load references/migration-guide-1.5.0.md when upgrading from <1.5.0

⚠️ v1.6.0 Breaking Changes

Session Freshness: freshAge now uses createdAt (not updatedAt). Sessions may require re-auth more frequently for sensitive operations.

SAML Security: InResponseTo validation is default ON. Opt out with saml: { enableInResponseToValidation: false }.

OIDC Provider Deprecated: Use @better-auth/oauth-provider instead.

New in v1.5.0 (Highlights)

• New CLI: npx auth init/migrate/generate/upgrade
• D1 Native: Pass D1 binding directly (no adapter needed)
• OAuth 2.1 Provider: @better-auth/oauth-provider (MCP-ready)
• Electron: @better-auth/electron for desktop apps
• i18n: @better-auth/i18n for error translations
• Dynamic Base URL: Multi-domain/preview deployment support
• Secret Key Rotation: Non-destructive, versioned secrets
• Test Utils: Factories, OTP capture, login helpers
• Typed Error Codes: Machine-readable code in error responses

Load references/v1.5-features.md for detailed implementation guides.

New in v1.6.0 (Highlights)

• OpenTelemetry: Distributed tracing (experimental)
• Passkey Pre-Auth: Register passkeys before session
• Non-blocking Scrypt: Password hashing on libuv thread pool
• 46% Smaller Package: 4.2MB → 2.3MB
• Case Insensitive Queries: mode: "insensitive" on adapter queries

Load references/v1.6-features.md for detailed implementation guides.

Quick Reference

Environment Variables

Note: Only define baseURL/secret in config if env vars are NOT set.

CLI Commands (v1.5+)

Re-run after adding/changing plugins.

Core Config Options

Common Plugins

Import from dedicated packages (extracted in v1.5+):

typescriptCopy code
import { twoFactor } from "better-auth/plugins/two-factor"
import { organization } from "better-auth/plugins/organization"
import { passkey } from "@better-auth/passkey"          // Separate package
import { apiKey } from "@better-auth/api-key"            // Separate package (v1.5+)
import { sso } from "@better-auth/sso"                   // Separate package (v1.5+)
import { i18n } from "@better-auth/i18n"                 // Separate package (v1.5+)
import { oauthProvider } from "@better-auth/oauth-provider" // Separate package (v1.5+)

Core plugins (still in better-auth/plugins): twoFactor, organization, admin, anonymous, emailOTP, magicLink, phone-number, multi-session, custom-session.

Top 5 Errors (See references/error-catalog.md for all 15)

Error #1: "d1Adapter is not exported"

Problem: Trying to use non-existent d1Adapter Solution: Use drizzleAdapter or Kysely instead (see Quick Start above)

Error #2: Schema Generation Fails

Problem: better-auth migrate doesn't work with D1 Solution: Use bunx drizzle-kit generate then wrangler d1 migrations apply

Error #3: CamelCase vs snake_case Mismatch

Problem: Database uses email_verified but better-auth expects emailVerified Solution: Use camelCase in schema or add CamelCasePlugin to Kysely

Error #4: CORS Errors

Problem: Access-Control-Allow-Origin errors, cookies not sent Solution: Configure CORS with credentials: true and correct origins

Error #5: OAuth Redirect URI Mismatch

Problem: Social sign-in fails with "redirect_uri_mismatch" Solution: Ensure exact match: https://yourdomain.com/api/auth/callback/google

Load references/error-catalog.md for all 15 errors with detailed solutions.

Common Use Cases

Use Case 1: Email/Password Authentication

When: Basic authentication without social providers Quick Pattern:

typescriptCopy code
// Client
await authClient.signIn.email({
  email: "user@example.com",
  password: "password123",
});

// Server - enable in config
emailAndPassword: {
  enabled: true,
  requireEmailVerification: true,
}

Load: references/setup-guide.md → Step 5

Use Case 2: Social Authentication (45+ Providers)

When: Allow users to sign in with social accounts Supported: Google, GitHub, Microsoft, Apple, Discord, TikTok, Twitch, Spotify, LinkedIn, Slack, Reddit, Facebook, Twitter/X, Patreon, Vercel, Kick, and 30+ more. Quick Pattern:

typescriptCopy code
// Client
await authClient.signIn.social({
  provider: "google",
  callbackURL: "/dashboard",
});

// Server config
socialProviders: {
  google: {
    clientId: env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
    clientSecret: env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET,
    scope: ["openid", "email", "profile"],
  },
}

Load: references/setup-guide.md → Step 5

Use Case 3: Protected API Routes

When: Need to verify user is authenticated Quick Pattern:

typescriptCopy code
app.get("/api/protected", async (c) => {
  const auth = createAuth(c.env);
  const session = await auth.api.getSession({
    headers: c.req.raw.headers,
  });

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

  return c.json({ data: "protected", user: session.user });
});

Client Integration

Create auth client (src/lib/auth-client.ts):

typescriptCopy code
import { createAuthClient } from "better-auth/client";

export const authClient = createAuthClient({
  baseURL: import.meta.env.VITE_API_URL || "http://localhost:8787",
});

Use in React:

typescriptCopy code
import { authClient } from "@/lib/auth-client";

export function UserProfile() {
  const { data: session, isPending } = authClient.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>
  );
}

• Complete feature comparison: better-auth vs Clerk vs Auth.js
• v1.4.0+ new features (database joins, stateless sessions, API keys)
• Migration paths, cost analysis, and performance benchmarks
• Recommendations by use case and 5-year TCO

Production Examples

Verified working repositories (all use Drizzle or Kysely):

1. zwily/example-react-router-cloudflare-d1-drizzle-better-auth - Drizzle
2. matthewlynch/better-auth-react-router-cloudflare-d1 - Kysely
3. foxlau/react-router-v7-better-auth - Drizzle
4. zpg6/better-auth-cloudflare - Drizzle (includes CLI)

Note: Check each repo's better-auth version. Repos on v1.3.x need v1.4.0+ migration (see references/migration-guide-1.4.0.md). None use a direct d1Adapter - all require Drizzle/Kysely.

Secure Installation

When installing authentication packages, follow supply chain security best practices — auth libraries are high-value targets for supply chain attacks:

• Block post-install scripts — npm config set ignore-scripts true (or Bun: disabled by default)
• Cooldown period — Wait 7 days for new package versions to be vetted by the community
• Audit before installing — Run socket package score npm <pkg> or use socket npm install <pkg> to check packages

Load the dependency-upgrade skill for full security configuration including Socket CLI integration, cooldown setup, lockfile validation, and CI enforcement.
