Quick example

Import SeederModule in your root module. It auto-detects the MikroORM instance registered by MikroOrmModule:

import { Module } from '@nestjs/common'
import { MikroOrmModule } from '@mikro-orm/nestjs'
import { SeederModule } from '@joakimbugge/nest-mikroorm-seeder'
import { UserSeeder } from './seeders/UserSeeder.js'

@Module({
  imports: [
    MikroOrmModule.forRoot({ ... }),
    SeederModule.forRoot({ seeders: [UserSeeder] }),
  ],
})
export class AppModule {}
