Deleting roles

You can delete any role you have created, if the role you are trying to delete does not exist then this has no effect

NodeJS

import UserRoles from "supertokens-node/recipe/userroles";

async function deleteRole() {
    // Delete the user role
    const response = await UserRoles.deleteRole("user");

    if (!response.didRoleExist) {
        // There was no such role
    }
}

GoLang

import (
    "github.com/supertokens/supertokens-golang/recipe/userroles"
)

func deleteRole() {
    // Delete the user role
    response, err := userroles.DeleteRole("user", nil)
    if err != nil {
        // TODO: Handle error
        return
    }

    if response.OK.DidRoleExist == false {
        // There was no such role
    }
}

Python

Asyncio
