A progressive Node.js framework for building efficient and scalable server-side applications.

Description

• This project is about compatibility and being able to add graphql-upload to Nest.js

• The current version of graphql-upload, 5/09/2024, is 16.0.2. which has caused compatibility problems with Nest.js, commonjs modules and .mjs files.

-If you decide to use a recent version you should use it like this in the main file of your project:

async function bootstrap() {
  const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule);
  const configService = app.get(ConfigService);
  // ...

  const { default: graphqlUploadExpress } = await import(
    'graphql-upload/graphqlUploadExpress.mjs'
  );
  app.use(graphqlUploadExpress({ maxFileSize: 10000000, maxFiles: 10 }));

  // ...
  app.useGlobalPipes(new ValidationPipe());
  await app.listen(configService.get<number>('port'));
}

• Personally, I prefer to use the version 13.0.0 and "@types/graphql-upload": "8.0.12", which is the one that I have used in this project.

Testing the implementation

• You can try using the following curl:

curl localhost:3000/graphql \
  -H "x-apollo-operation-name: upload_file" \
  -F operations='{ "query": "mutation ($file: Upload!) { upload_file(file: $file) }", "variables": { "file": null } }' \
  -F map='{ "0": ["variables.file"] }' \
  -F [email protected]
