nestjs-types

An attempt to improve Developer Experience on NestJS apps by hijacking built-in types to @nestjs/* packages.

Install

npm install nestjs-types

Usage

Somewhere in your app, like at src/main.ts

import 'nestjs-types'

// ...

then you can use the recommended set of types, like so:

• @nestjs/platform-express/@nestjs/platform-fastify

import { RequestExpress, ResponseExpress } from '@nestjs/platform-express'
//       ^ an alias to Express.Request
// instead of importing `Request` from 'express'

import { RequestFastify, ResponseFastify } from '@nestjs/platform-fastify'
