The runtime config supports relative paths like /api so the SPA can run
same-origin in dev (Vite proxy) and stage/prod (Traefik). createDirectus
from @directus/sdk calls new URL(...) internally, which throws on
relative URLs. Resolve in toAbsoluteUrl() before handing to the SDK:
'/api' -> 'http://localhost:5173/api' (dev)
'https://api.example.com' -> passes through unchanged
Caught at runtime; typecheck/build don't surface this since the SDK
treats its url arg as a string.
Six files under src/auth/:
- client.ts: createDirectus<Schema>().with(authentication('cookie', ...))
.with(rest(...)). Lazy singleton via initDirectusClient(url) +
getDirectus() + useDirectus() (React-side helper). DirectusUser type;
empty Schema (grows in Phase 2+).
- store.ts: Zustand store with discriminated AuthState
(unknown / anonymous / authenticating / authenticated). Actions:
initialize, login, logout, setUser. humanizeAuthError maps Directus
error codes (INVALID_CREDENTIALS / INVALID_OTP / USER_SUSPENDED) to
user-facing strings.
- guard.ts: useRequireAuth (redirect to /login on anonymous) and
useRequireRole (bounce to / on role mismatch). Uses TanStack Router's
useNavigate; effective once 1.7 wires the router.
- bootstrap.tsx: <AuthBootstrap> component runs initDirectusClient +
initialize() once after the runtime config is loaded.
- index.ts: barrel re-exports.
main.tsx wraps App in <RuntimeConfigProvider><AuthBootstrap>...
App.tsx shows the auth status as a smoke indicator before 1.6/1.7.
Deviations:
1. Split getDirectus into initDirectusClient(url) + getDirectus()
because the runtime config is a React context (per 1.4), not a
Zustand store. <AuthBootstrap> bridges from React land to the non-
React getter.
2. Added <AuthBootstrap> as a discrete component rather than putting
the bootstrap effect in App.tsx — App.tsx gets replaced by the
router in 1.7, but bootstrap needs to keep running.
