Shahed Nasser 0462cc5acf docs: updates to use DML and other changes (#7834)
- Change existing data model guides and add new ones for DML
- Change module's docs around service factory + remove guides that are now necessary
- Hide/remove all mentions of module relationships, or label them as coming soon.
- Change all data model creation snippets to use DML
- use `property` instead of `field` when referring to a data model's properties.
- Fix all snippets in commerce module guides to use new method suffix (no more main model methods)
- Rework recipes, removing/hiding a lot of sections as a lot of recipes are incomplete with the current state of DML.


### Other changes

- Highlight fixes in some guides
- Remove feature flags guide
- Fix code block styles when there are no line numbers.

### Upcoming changes in other PRs

- Re-generate commerce module references (for the updates in the method names)
- Ensure that the data model references are generated correctly for models using DML.
- (probably at a very later point) revisit recipes

# {metadata.title}
This document provides flows to create a user.
## Invite Users
Another possible flow to create a user is by sending them an invite. Then, once they accept it, you create a new user for them:
```ts
// create invite
const invite = await userModuleService.createInvites({
email: "user@example.com",
})
// later, accept invite and create user
const invite =
await userModuleService.validateInviteToken("secret123")
await userModuleService.updateInvites({
id: invite.id,
accepted: true,
})
const user = await userModuleService.createUsers({
email: invite.email,
})
```
### Invite Expiry
An invite has an expiry date. You can renew the expiry date and refresh the token using the `refreshInviteTokens` method:
```ts
await userModuleService.refreshInviteTokens(["invite_123"])
```
---
## Straightforward Creation
Finally, you can create a user using the [create method of the User Modules main service](/references/user/create):
```ts
const user = await userModuleService.createUsers({
email: "user@example.com",
})
```
### With the Auth Module
By combining the User and Auth Modules, you can use the Auth Module for authenticating users, and the User Module to manage those users.
So, when a user is authenticated, and you receive the `AuthIdentity` object, you can use it to create a user if it doesnt exist:
```ts
const { success, authIdentity } =
await authModuleService.authenticate("emailpass", {
// ...
})
// assuming authIdentity is defined
const [, count] = await userModuleService.listAndCountUsers({
email: authIdentity.entity_id,
})
if (!count) {
const user = await userModuleService.createUsers({
email: authIdentity.entity_id,
})
}
```
