⚙️ Setup Provider

First, configure your Better Auth client in your application:

// app.config.ts
import { ApplicationConfig } from '@angular/core'
import { provideBetterAuth } from 'ngx-better-auth'
import { environment } from './environments/environment'
import { adminClient, twoFactorClient, usernameClient } from 'better-auth/client/plugins'

export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
  providers: [
    provideBetterAuth({
      baseURL: environment.apiUrl, // it works also with proxy config
      basePath: '/auth',   // optional, default is '/api/auth'
        
      // Example with plugins
      plugins: [
        usernameClient(),
        twoFactorClient({
          onTwoFactorRedirect() {
              window.location.href = '/two-factor-auth'
          },
        }),
        adminClient({
          ac: accessControl,
          roles: {
            admin,
            moderator,
            user,
          },
        }),
      ],
    })
  ]
}

🧩 Different services

You can inject different services depending on your needs.
AuthService provides the core Better Auth client methods (signIn, signOut, signUp, e.g.).
The full list of methods is available at the end of this README.

• isLoggedIn → a computed boolean

Demonstration of usage in a component

import { AuthService } from "ngx-better-auth"
import { inject } from "@angular/core"

@Component({
    // ...
})
export class MyComponent {
    private readonly authService = inject(AuthService)

    get isLoggedIn() {
        return this.authService.isLoggedIn()
    }

    get userName() {
        return this.authService.session()?.user.name
    }
}

🛡️ Guards

This library ships with guards to quickly set up route protection.

Helpers

• redirectUnauthorizedTo(['/login']) → redirect if not logged in
• redirectLoggedInTo(['/']) → redirect if already logged in
• hasRole(['admin'], ['/unauthorized']) → restrict access by role and redirect if not authorized

Usage in routes

import { Routes } from '@angular/router'
import { canActivate, redirectLoggedInTo, redirectUnauthorizedTo, hasRole } from 'ngx-better-auth'

export const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: '',
    component: SomeComponent,
    ...canActivate(redirectUnauthorizedTo(['/login']))
  },
  {
    path: 'admin',
    component: AdminComponent,
    ...canActivate(hasRole(['admin'], ['/unauthorized']))
  },
  {
    path: 'login',
    component: LoginComponent,
    ...canActivate(redirectLoggedInTo(['/']))
  }
]
