nestjs-ultimate-express

A drop-in replacement for @nestjs/platform-express that uses ultimate-express instead of standard Express.js for enhanced performance.

Installation

npm install nestjs-ultimate-express
# or
yarn add nestjs-ultimate-express

Usage

Simply replace your import from @nestjs/platform-express to nestjs-ultimate-express:

Before

import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core';
import { NestExpressApplication } from '@nestjs/platform-express';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';

async function bootstrap() {
  const app = await NestFactory.create<NestExpressApplication>(AppModule);
  await app.listen(3000);
}
bootstrap();

After

import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core';
import { NestExpressApplication } from 'nestjs-ultimate-express';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';

async function bootstrap() {
  const app = await NestFactory.create<NestExpressApplication>(AppModule);
  await app.listen(3000);
}
bootstrap();

That's it! Your application now runs on ultimate-express with all the performance benefits.

What's Different?

• 🚀 Enhanced Performance: Built on ultimate-express for better performance
• 🔄 Drop-in Replacement: No code changes needed beyond the import
• 🧪 Fully Compatible: Works with all existing NestJS features and middlewares
