How to get custom user fields?

[DigNZ]

I'm digging down a rabbit hole:

1. Subclass DirectusUser to have a type with additional fields
2. Add an extension to CurrentUser similar to read() readCustomUser() <- didn't really work
3. Add a CustomUserConverter() <- can't inject this into CurrentUser.read
4. Implement the client call directly and skip the currentUser accessor <- works but seems smelly.

Is there a way to get a user object with custom fields? If not there should be. If yes can it be documented please.

I do not think there is a way to do it currently. Does Directus have support to adding custom fields in system tables?

For 3 option, it is possible to customize converter with sdk.users.converter = MyConverter();. Only make sure that return value extends DirectusUser or Dart will throw an exception.

Hi, I played around a little, and this is simplest solution I could think off.
I know it's not ideal, if anybody has time I am open to more proper solutions.

  final sdk = await getSdk();
  final user = DirectusUser(
      email: "[email protected]",
      password: "password",
// this values are same as columns, they should not be camel cased
      rawValues: {"test_value": "RawValue"});
  final res = await sdk.users.createOne(user);
  print(res.data.rawValues['test_value']);
