Anyway to allow shared emails?
I don’t expect this to be a built in solution as it’s kinda niche, however think the findUser solution is pretty open ended and can solve other problems at the same time

That system you mentioned would require a complete architectural change, and although it does give many benefits it’s also a lot of work

Either way though, the solution I’ve provided offers more flexibility I believe

@Firro this is the exact system we’re migrating thousands of our customers from, it ends up being really expensive and more difficult to maintain than having on one system

My laptops struggling to keep up with typescript on the better-auth project so struggling to see if everything's been applied properly, can give it a better go later if you're fond of the idea?

I.e. findUser: (ctx, type) => {
...
if (user && type === "signUp") throw new Error("Existing user with the same email found on this store")

Can potentially open it up a bit more by also passing through the function being used as a second parameter to findUser, and based on that, we can throw custom errors if a user is found

Just for context, this is how I'm using it:
findUser: async (ctx) => {
const storeId = getStore(ctx)
console.log({storeId})
const user = await prisma.user.findFirst({
where: {
storeId,
email: ctx.body.email
}
});
console.log({user})
return user;
}
Where the getStore function looks at the Host from the ctx headers, in order to get the storeId
As you can hopefully see though, it leaves it pretty open ended to many other use-cases

I'm sure it's a little away from being production ready for you guys, but this is the gist of it basiclly - working locally for my use case perfectly!

I'm not saying you override existing behaviour, none of that changes, just an config option where it can be overwridden with custom logic to support any type of auth really

Maybe the way the system is built won't handle that easily though

Would it be worth me giving it a go and making a pull request, to see if I can do it cleanly?

The pros of this btw:
- Can replace username login plugin
- Can use this instead of the email login method, just match it with the body.email internally
- Can use for other methods that people might want, i.e. login with phone number / password
- Can be used for all the above together (login with either username, phone number, email)
And finally...
- Can allow for multi tenant setups
There's probably a lot more that I'm not thinking of 🙂

I imagine it as a function that takes in ctx, and spits out a user, and this basicly overrides the internalAdapter.findUserByEmail if set
