Using .local TLD for apiDomian or websiteDomain leads to parsing error

Parsing .local tlds leads to a Please make sure that the apiDomain and websiteDomain have correct values error.

The reason for this is that psl, which is used under the hood to validate the url is not parsing .local tld's (see here) which leads to a the mentioned error.

Whats the use case of using .local tlds? If it's not there in that list, it's not an actual TLD right? Maybe I am missing something here.

In my case I'm using Orbstack as my container runtime during development. Orbstack automatically generates domains (documentation) for the development containers following the schema <container-name>.orb.local, which are only accessible locally since .local only routes in the local network it would make sense in my eyes to not validate it, just like its already done with localhost domains.

This also behaves differently from the supertokens-golang sdk which works with .local domains just fine

Fair enough. Thanks for the info. We will work on fixing this.

This has been fixed in node sdk version >= 17.0.5
