MikroORM Adapter

Resources

Setup

Installation

npm install @mikro-orm/core @auth/mikro-orm-adapter

Environment Variables

DATABASE_CONNECTION_STRING=./db.sqlite

Configuration

./auth.ts
import NextAuth from "next-auth"
import { MikroOrmAdapter } from "@auth/mikro-orm-adapter"
 
export const { handlers, auth, signIn, signOut } = NextAuth({
  adapter: MikroOrmAdapter({
    // MikroORM options object - https://mikro-orm.io/docs/next/configuration#driver
    dbName: process.env.DATABASE_CONNECTION_STRING,
    type: "sqlite",
    debug: true,
  }),
  providers: [],
})

Advanced usage

Passing custom entities

The MikroORM adapter ships with its own set of entities. If you’d like to extend them, you can optionally pass them to the adapter.

This schema is adapted for use in MikroORM and based upon our main schema

./auth.ts
import config from "config/mikro-orm.ts"
import {
  Cascade,
  Collection,
  Entity,
  OneToMany,
  PrimaryKey,
  Property,
  Unique,
} from "@mikro-orm/core"
import { defaultEntities } from "@auth/mikro-orm-adapter"
 
const type { Account, Session } = defaultEntities
 
@Entity()
export class User implements defaultEntities.User {
  @PrimaryKey()
  id: string = randomUUID()
 
  @Property({ nullable: true })
  name?: string
 
  @Property({ nullable: true })
  @Unique()
  email?: string
 
  @Property({ type: "Date", nullable: true })
  emailVerified: Date | null = null
 
  @Property({ nullable: true })
  image?: string
 
  @OneToMany({
    entity: () => Session,
    mappedBy: (session) => session.user,
    hidden: true,
    orphanRemoval: true,
    cascade: [Cascade.ALL],
  })
  sessions = new Collection<Session>(this)
 
  @OneToMany({
    entity: () => Account,
    mappedBy: (account) => account.user,
    hidden: true,
    orphanRemoval: true,
    cascade: [Cascade.ALL],
  })
  accounts = new Collection<Account>(this)
 
  @Enum({ hidden: true })
  role = "ADMIN"
}
 
export const { handlers, auth, signIn, signOut } = NextAuth({
  adapter: MikroOrmAdapter(config, { entities: { User } }),
})

Including default entities

You may want to include the defaultEntities in your MikroORM configuration to include them in Migrations etc.

To achieve that include them in your “entities” array:

config/mikro-orm.ts
import { Options } from "@mikro-orm/core"
import { defaultEntities } from "@auth/mikro-orm-adapter"
 
const config: Options = {
  entities: [VeryImportantEntity, ...Object.values(defaultEntities)],
}
 
export default config
