From 3f270934f2aefd5dc31e89b8cc157e1ef6b1f219 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Tue, 2 Jun 2026 21:43:28 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] Fix Docker runtime: secure cookies over HTTP and empty env vars - useSecureCookies now keys off the BETTER_AUTH_URL scheme instead of NODE_ENV, so login works over http://localhost in the (production-mode) Docker stack instead of the browser silently dropping the session cookie. - env parsing treats empty strings as unset, so compose-supplied optionals like `SMTP_PORT=` no longer fail coercion (Number("") === 0) and crash boot. - docker-compose: configurable host Postgres port (POSTGRES_PORT) to avoid clashing with an existing local Postgres.
