After following the official documentation for implementing SSO with the Next-auth Github provider in my App, I encountered an issue where the Client API documentation suggested using useSession() to retrieve session information, but it was not returning the Github username, which is essential for my needs. To address this, I decided to override the profile response as shown in the code snippet below. The profile information is being logged via Terminal output.
I now need to figure out how to utilize the profile data in the Frontend of my application.
Thank you!
export default NextAuth({
providers: [
GithubProvider({
clientId: process.env.CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: process.env.CLIENT_SECRET,
async profile(profile: GithubProfile) {
console.log('profile', profile)
return {
id: profile.id.toString(),
name: profile.name,
userName: profile.login,
email: profile.email,
image: profile.avatar_url,
}
},
}),
],
})
