PostgreSQL schema#

You can choose any table names, just make sure to define them in the adapter argument. The id columns are not UUID types with the default configuration.

User table#

You can add additional columns to store user attributes.

CREATE TABLE auth_user (
    id TEXT PRIMARY KEY
);

Key table#

Make sure to update the foreign key statement if you change the user table name.

CREATE TABLE user_key (
    id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
    user_id TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES auth_user(id),
    hashed_password TEXT
);

Session table#

You can add additional columns to store session attributes. Make sure to update the foreign key statement if you change the user table name.

CREATE TABLE user_session (
    id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
    user_id TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES auth_user(id),
    active_expires BIGINT NOT NULL,
    idle_expires BIGINT NOT NULL
);
