lament abyss
I am working on a solution with multiple APIs that connects to the same database. I want to reuse the database entities so I decided to create a Database Module that include the entities and a Dynamic Module that configures TypeORM. And I also wanted to share this as a npm package. For now I am installing the npm package directly from my local disk. I created the following DatabaseModule and this is included in the npm package along with the entities for the database model.
import { DynamicModule, Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { TypeOrmModule, TypeOrmModuleOptions } from '@nestjs/typeorm';
@Module({})
export class DatabaseModule {
static register(options: TypeOrmModuleOptions): DynamicModule {
return {
module: DatabaseModule,
imports: [
TypeOrmModule.forRoot({
...options,
entities: [__dirname + './models/**/*.model{.ts,.js}'],
}),
],
};
}
}
Once I install the npm package on my API project, I am importing the new DatabaseModule in my AppModule imports like this.
@Module({
imports: [
ConfigModule.forRoot(),
DatabaseModule.register({
type: 'mssql',
host: process.env.DATABASE_HOST,
port: +process.env.DATABASE_PORT,
username: process.env.DATABASE_USERNAME,
password: process.env.DATABASE_PASSWORD,
database: process.env.DATABASE_NAME,
options: {
trustServerCertificate: Boolean(
process.env.DATABASE_TRUST_SERVER_CERTIFICATES,
),
},
}),
],
})
export class AppModule {}
When I try to run the API app it fails with the following error message.
ERROR [ExceptionHandler] Nest can't resolve dependencies of the TypeOrmCoreModule (TypeOrmModuleOptions, ?). Please make sure that the argument ModuleRef at index [1] is available in the TypeOrmCoreModule context.
Any help pointing me in the right direction is appreciated. Want to understand what I am doing wrong here.
