I'm trying to get a variable to appear through both the controller prefix
and the method path
parameters of the decorators. I know of Nest Router, but I'd rather avoid using it while I can.
/*************************
* eneity.config.ts
*************************/
import { registerAs } from '@nestjs/config';
export default registerAs('cat', () => ({
cat: {
urlPrefix: 'cat',
paramName: 'meow',
}
})
);
/*************************
* cat.module.ts
*************************/
import entityConfig from 'config/entity.config';
import { CatController } from 'entities/cat/cat.controller';
import { ConfigModule, ConfigService } from '@nestjs/config';
@Module({
imports : [ConfigModule.forFeature(entityConfig),],
providers : [ConfigService],
controllers: [CatController],
})
export class CatModule {}
/*************************
* cat.controller.ts
*************************/
import { Controller, Request, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { ConfigService } from '@nestjs/config';
@Controller(`${this.urlPrefix}/cat`) // <<<<< Here
export class CatController {
private readonly urlPrefix;
private readonly paramName;
constructor(
private readonly configService: ConfigService,
) {
this.urlPrefix = this.configService.get<string>('cat.urlPrefix'); // animal
this.paramName = this.configService.get<string>('cat.paramName'); // meow
}
@Get(`snowflake/:${this.paramName}`) // <<<<< Here
getProfile(@Request() req) {
return 'meowww';
}
}
I tried to do it as is, and it keeps giving me "undefined", even though it shows up if I log it to console in the constructor. I want to be able to use the configuration to set these constants.
In the end, the route I want is: localhost/animal/cat/snowflake/meow
.
Edit: I attempted it with a normal variable, and it works. Apparently the issue is with my implementation of NestJS's config package.
