Hello, I'm currently implementing passwordless with text messages in nodeJS (fastify). We always identify users by the their phone and don't store supertokens user ids on our own DB hence I need the phone to be either on sessionData or accessToken. I could not find a way to decorate my session with the phone number of a user. At first I thought I could add it in

userCtx

createAndSendCustomTextMessage: async (input, userCtx) =>...

but that does not seem to propagate to a

createNewSession

override. Does someone have an idea on how to achieve this?

hey @User , we are working on a feature that will allow you to do this more easily, but at the moment, you can do it by overriding the

consumeCodePOST

API like this: https://gist.github.com/rishabhpoddar/878ada3e91b039a798e88aa311d9c846

awesome @User that worked really well!

thank you.

BTW a little comment about something I saw in the doc "We are working on our own SMS / email delivery service which will make this step much easier. Until then, you have to send the SMS / emails yourself." I hope that when supertokens does that we will still be able to use

createAndSendCustomTextMessage

. For us this is actually a feature compared to auth0 which does not provide that hook. We have more control on rate limiting text messages, fighting toll frauds etc.

Yes. You will still be able to use

createAndSendCustomTextMessage

🙂

Would you mind getting on a call with me to tell me about how you fight SMS spam? Would be useful for us when building our own service.

sure. calendar link in your DM

what provider do you use to send SMS? 🙂

twilio

RP, I meant a Java SDK for backend

@User we don’t have one yet

But you can call the core’s APIs directly

not even in dev? :c

Not even in dev

damn

Anywho I'm gonna work on a electron app that runs on your computer's boot to launch other applications after a specified amount of time

gotta make it work on linux too cuz I wanna dual boot linux

I see. That’s cool!

Hi there, is there any documentation/guide on the React Native implementation? I see the SDK reference, but it’s not overly clear the exact steps.

@User You can start by selecting what kind of auth you would like to implement here: https://supertokens.com/docs/community/recipes You should then be able to select react-native as you follow along

@User hm, ok. That page is crashing on my browser so I’ll have to figure out what’s going on with that first I suppose lol. But I’ll check it as soon as I can.

Oh, what browser are you using?

Chrome, but it’s been acting up all day so maybe I just need to reinstall it

Even with plugins all disabled

Ah fair

Ok, I see it now. Thanks @User. I do have a follow up question though on if this works with Expo? Currently we’re using Expo for roughing things out since it seems to simplify some things.

It should!

The SDK we have only helps with session management at the moment. For login, you will have to build your own UI and call the APIs exposed by our backend SDK using axios / fetch yourself
