accounts.user()

How to use the accounts.user() method in your app.

To get the currently authenticated user for your app, you can utilize the accounts.user() method. This method returns a client-safe object representing the current user.

Client-Only Method

This method is client-only as it's dependent on the global window object. If used in server-executed code, this method will throw an error.

Example Usage

import joystick, { accounts } from '@joystick.js/ui';

const Profile = joystick.component({
  data: async (api = {}, req = {}, input = {}, instance = {}) => {
    return {
      user: await accounts.user(),
    };
  },
  render: ({ props, state, data, each, when, methods }) => {
    return `
      <div class="profile">
        <header>
          <h2>Hey, ${data?.user?.name?.first}!</h2>
        </header>
        ...
      </div>
    `;
  },
});

export default Profile;
