Ah okay.

So the latest docker container should work with the latest node JS SDK

it should also work with the older version (3.3.0) of the nodejs SDK

so far things are ok on local and my staging environment, i will reach out if i run into issues

Cool!

but looking back at everything, the --net flag seemed to be the missing link all other settings for mysql were matching what i setup on my local, including having a local IP address and adding a mysql user that would be allowed to login using that local ip instead of localhost

Right.

even removing the mysql IP binding and allowing any connection from any ip didn't seem to work at the time

Yes. For that, you need to create a user that is allowed to connect under any connection and grant them permission

How do you think we can make this process easier?

i tried '%' but my final settings used a specific IP for the machine

🤔

Cause this is a MySQL + docker complication technically

yeah

my only thought right now is just some form of FAQ for docker + mysql + supertokens core

Yea. Makes sense!

And probably better error messages in logs

i started looking at a couple of red harrings which took me no where. at one point i thought it was because of a missing mysql.sock file but making changes in that area didn't seem to help overall i think if i had better understanding of docker i would have been able to come to this result sooner I don't know docker had the different modes of how to handle networking I think there is bridge, host and something else

Yea. There r a couple of ways for networking with docker.

If ur still uncomfy with docker, you can use supertokens without docker as well

Via installing the zip and running a command on your server.

I was considering that towards the end But I will keep that option open if I run into more problems

Hey @User

So for returning users, i am checking let doesSessionExist = SuperTokensRequest.doesSessionExist();

hi

if true -> let user = SuperTokensRequest.getUserId();

But I'm getting an error in the console

Error: No session exists

even through doesSessionExist returns true
