refactor!: type the user metadata and realtime connection parameters - #1843
Merged
Merged
Conversation
`User.appMetadata` becomes an `AppMetadata` value object with typed `provider` and `providers` fields, an index operator for the keys added by admin updates or auth hooks, and a round-tripping `toJson()`. `User.userMetadata` is no longer nullable and is unmodifiable once parsed, matching supabase-js and supabase-swift. Both constructor arguments are now optional. `RealtimeClient.parameters` is a `Map<String, String>`, the type the client already coerced every value to when building the socket URL. The `_StreamPostgrestFilter` and `_Order` helpers were already records and the channel parameters were already private, so the rest of the public maps stay as they are: change rows, storage custom metadata, JWT claims and the input-side attribute maps are free-form by design.

- Around line 55-56: Update the AppMetadata JSON parsing and serialization
methods to track whether the typed provider and providers keys were present in
the input, then emit each key during toJson when it was originally present,
including null provider values and empty providers lists. Preserve omission for
keys absent from the input.
- Line 55: Update AppMetadata.toJson to avoid the Dart 3.8-only null-aware map
entry syntax; conditionally include the provider key only when provider is
non-null while preserving the declared Dart SDK compatibility.

Prevent reserved-key collisions in toJson.
additionalProperties is public. A caller can pass provider or providers in that map. The spread at line 58 overwrites the typed values. fromJson then removes those keys from additionalProperties, so the original typed values do not round-trip.
Remove reserved keys before serialization, or reject them in the constructor.
Proposed fix
Map<String, dynamic> toJson() {
- return {
- 'provider': ?provider,
- 'providers': providers,
- ..._additionalProperties,
- };
+ final json = Map<String, dynamic>.of(_additionalProperties)
+ ..remove('provider')
+ ..remove('providers')
+ ..['providers'] = providers;
+ if (provider != null) json['provider'] = provider;
+ return json;

Closes the remaining parts of SDK-820.
User.appMetadatais now anAppMetadatavalue object with typedproviderandprovidersfields. Every other key the server sent, such as a claim added by an admin update or an auth hook, is read throughoperator [], souser.appMetadata['provider']keeps compiling.toJson()round-trips the full object.User.userMetadatais non-nullable and unmodifiable once parsed. A user without metadata has an empty map, matching supabase-js and supabase-swift. Both metadata constructor arguments are now optional.RealtimeClient.parametersisMap<String, String>, the type the client already coerced every value to when building the socket URL.MIGRATION.mddocuments both changes andsdk-compliance.yamlregisters the new symbols.Why not the ticket's original plan
get<T>(key)andtoMap()is not a non-breaking shim: changing the field type breaks every caller, and the wrapper adds no type safety.user_metadatahas no stable keys. The server populates it from the sign-in method and OAuth provider, and no other SDK types it beyond a free-form map.app_metadatahas exactly two keys the auth server writes,providerandproviders, so those are the ones worth typing. TheJWKclass injwt.dartalready uses this typed-fields-plus-index-operator shape._StreamPostgrestFilterand_Orderhelpers were already Dart 3 records, andRealtimeChannel's parameters were already private.The remaining public
Map<String, dynamic>fields are free-form by design and stay as they are: Postgres change rows, storage custom metadata, JWT custom claims, and the input-sideUserAttributes/AdminUserAttributesmetadata.Testing
