Development plugin

The plugin provides a local SQLite database and logs sign-in codes instead of sending email.

Setup

Install the plugin:

npm install @oberoncms/plugin-development

pnpm add @oberoncms/plugin-development

yarn add @oberoncms/plugin-development

bun add @oberoncms/plugin-development

Import it in oberon/config.ts:

import { plugin as developmentPlugin } from "@oberoncms/plugin-development"

Put it first in the plugin list. Keep your production database and send plugins in that list. See Configuration for the complete setup.

Feature flags

Use these variables to select development behavior:

USE_DEVELOPMENT_DATABASE=true
USE_DEVELOPMENT_SEND=true

Each flag accepts true or false. Without an explicit value, development behavior is enabled outside CI when NODE_ENV is unset or development. The plugin is disabled when both features are off.

Set both flags to false in production. Generated apps explicitly set them to true in .env.local, including when you build locally. See Deployment before you build for production.
