NodeJS

SuperTokens.init({

        Session.init({
            override: {
                functions: (originalImplementation) => {
                    return {
                        ...originalImplementation,

                        // here we are only overriding the function that's responsible
                        // for creating a new session
                        createNewSession: async function (input) {
                            // TODO: some custom logic

                            // or call the default behaviour as show below
                            return await originalImplementation.createNewSession(input);
                        },
                        // ...
                        // TODO: override more functions
                    }

});

• originalImplementation is the object that contains functions that have the original implementaion for this recipe. It can be used in your functions as a way to use the SuperTokens' default behaviour.
• In the above code snippet, we override the createNewSession function of this recipe. This can be used to (for example) modifying the session payload when a new session is created.
