I'm trying to integrate Auth0 library version 4 in my website and need to capture when a user logs in to register them in my database. Since version 4 no longer uses the API, I don't have a way to capture this as I did in version 3. How can I capture user information to store in my database? I am using next.js version 15. Here's my old code:
import { handleAuth, handleLogin, handleCallback } from '@auth0/nextjs-auth0';
import { getUserByEmail, createUser } from '../../../../lib/queries/users';
export const GET = handleAuth({
login: handleLogin({
returnTo: "/",
}),
signup: handleLogin({
authorizationParams: {
screen_hint: "signup",
},
returnTo: "/",
}),
callback: handleCallback({
async afterCallback(req, res, session, state) {
try {
if (!res || !res.user) {
console.error('לא נמצא מידע על משתמש');
return session;
}
const existingUser = await getUserByEmail(res.user.email);
if (!existingUser) {
await createUser({
email: res.user.email,
name: res.user.name,
auth0Id: res.user.sub,
});
console.log(`נוצר משתמש חדש: ${res.user.email}`);
}
session.user = {
...res.user
};
return session;
} catch (error) {
console.error('שגיאה בעיבוד משתמש לאחר התחברות:', error);
return session;
}
},
}),
});
export const POST = handleAuth();
If you are making an async call to another API after the user authenticates, Why not just use a post-login
action? It's what it is designed for. Or, if this should only occur during a registration flow, better yet -- a post-registration
action.
