Hi, I am building a deno app and I'd like to use supertokens. Can I use the node api in deno?

I don’t know if node is 100% compatible with Deno. If it is, you should be able to use it.

How to build from source and install?

Note that the above will work only on linux / mac based systems. You might run into issues in windows

Let me list here the problems I face in following from that link you shared.

please do.

1. Looks like I need to clone the supertokens-root repo first and run the "loadModules" first... that gets me the "supertokens-core" and "cloning "supertokens-plugin-interface and "utils" repos. 2. "./startTestingEnv --wait" gets completed successfully... 3. "./startTestingEnv" runs successfully. No tests failed. 400 odd tests are all PASSED. 4. "java -classpath "./cli/*" io.supertokens.cli.Main true install" requires lot of hacks. "./cli/*" does not have the expected jar. It is under "./cli/jar". Somewhere it complained about version.yaml not existing. Hacked it by copying version.yaml from docker machine... After fixing all the classpath problem, "supertokens list" works fine. But, "supertokens start" failed...

Are these instructions upto date and works for the currently available repo in github?\

While doing step 4 (from your list), you should have

./startTestingEnv --wait

running on a shell.

yes, it ran. then I broke it. Should I keep it running for further steps?

Yes. Keep it running all the time

Do not stop that process.

ok, will try

And while that's running, do step number 5 onwards in https://github.com/supertokens/supertokens-core/wiki/Building-from-source

Then you will not run into any problem.

ok, will do.

Hurray! it got installed and "supertokens start" started the process.

Awesome.

Hi everyone, I recently came across supertokens and wanted to get started. I am using nodejs+mongodb and react on frontend. I want to create SAAS application just wanted to know if I want to implement a adin user and each admin user will have some more users under him with specific permissions or roles then is it possible to implement such thing?

Hi @User , we currently do auth + sessions only. The features we provide for access control are limited to: - Putting the user's role in their session - Fetching a user's role on the backend, from their session - Fetching a user's role on the frontend, from their session. - Changing a user's role in a session in an API. You can checkout something like https://www.osohq.com/ for more features of access control. Use them for authorisation, and use SuperTokens for authentication.

Hello everyone. I am trying to get supertokens to run with nestjs and followed the guide on the website. Some functions are marked as deprecated though. https://supertokens.io/docs/session/nestjs/guide#6-add-the-supertokens-error-handler

@User you can import the

errorHandler

from

supertokens-node/framework/express

instead

I believe that that would be the only one that's showing the deprecated warning? Or is there some other as well?

Thanks for your reply 👍 No, I think that's it. But the supertokens.service.spec.ts fails the test, because of ConfigInjectionToken. I am new to Nest too, I am not sure how to test @inject properly.

@User can you please help with this?

Hi, why do you want to test

@inject

? if it's just the test generated by default you can safely ignore(/delete) it if you don't want to add any meaningful test there

I assumed you are supposed to do that. Got a bit confused since generated boilerplate usually shows best practice, no?

It's not that important though, I was just curious
