Pocketbase pb_hooks - checking user authentication

The documentation for pocketbase is not as clear as it could be about how to check for an authenticated user when using the pb_hooks

It turns out that it is really simple

Docs :

https://pocketbase.io/docs/js-routing/#sending-request-to-custom-routes-using-the-sdks

https://pocketbase.io/jsvm/functions/_apis.requireAdminOrRecordAuth.html

Example :

// main.pb.js
// This is a simple GET route, that is protected
routerAdd("GET", "/private", (c) => {
    const data = { 
        message : "This can only be accessed if you are logged in"
    }
    return c.json(200, data)
    // Adding the $apis.requireAdminOrRecordAuth() argument, ensures the route is protected unless the user is logged in.
}, $apis.requireAdminOrRecordAuth());


// This is a simple GET route, that is public
routerAdd("GET", "/public", (c) => {
    const data = { 
        message : "This can be be accessed by public"
    }
    return c.json(200, data)
});

Then simply call the route using the pocketbase

// 
let fetchData = async () => {
    let resp = await pocketBaseClient.pb.send("/private", {
    });
    console.log(resp)
}
