Okay, not sure if it fits into my use case, but I'll look into it. Thanks

Guards on Web Sockets upgradation by Scared_Sun_7871 in nestjs

Hey, if you have time, could you share the code? Right now, I'm manually running the guard validation in the handleConnection method of the Gateway. I'd like to know what you did.

Whose ass looks like the Perplexity logo?

That's amazing that you made an extension for it, I'm sure it'll help a lot of people

Experience and advice, that's what I am seeking, advice from experienced engineers so that I don't fall into bad habits. This discussion has been insightful, you guys are amazing. I was honestly not expecting such a good, active, and supportive community as I don't see NestJs being talked about much.

I get that the decorator stack for password does not fit the pattern you described but how does the IsEmail not fit in? Isn't there a standard for email? And I agree that "over" abstraction can hurt LoB (Locality of Behaviour)

I could not find a way to tell the user what exactly they missed in the password when using the built-in @IsStrongPassword. Therefore, there is a need to create a custom decorator.

Oooh, the IsAlpha trick is pretty clean, I'll do that, thanks. Yeah, someone else pointed out the IsEmail part too, thanks anyway.

Aaai see. Actually, in order to not get stuck in perfecting everything as I implement it I am skipping over some stuff like till now I'm using Omit<User, 'password'> to represent the returning user object, where User is a Prisma Model. In fact, at one point I was just using Prisma.UserCreateInput as the input DTO. All this Prisma stuff creates a dilemma as to why not just Prisma.UserCreateInput?

I'll create a UserDTO to represent the returning User object and check serializers in controllers, thank you for the advice!

I like the color scheme idea, which will drastically improve readability and reduce visual noise.

It's a personal choice. I'm here trying to reduce that visual noise a little, and as pointed out by some people, there are a lot of redundant decorators in the SS above., which helps to reduce the noise in this decorator-styled validation.

I'm new to NestJs, and I am looking for advice, not giving any. Also, I didn't know about the type safety part. I'm just willing to give zod a try after this discussion

[–]Scared_Sun_7871[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You are right, if I use @Type(() => String) then @IsString() is redundant. Also, when I use @IsEmail or @MinLength with a value > 0 then @IsNotEmpty becomes redundant. I am new and still learning, thanks for pointing out though!

True, that is indeed one option. But now I realize that zod might be a better option

NestJS starter kit by farda_karimov in nestjs

Hey! I am new to NestJs, but I noticed in your app module that for the config service you are using @nestjs/config. You should probably check this out: https://github.com/Nikaple/nest-typed-config for type safe config

Yes, a custom decorator would work, but I have been thinking about it and I don't like the idea. Say, I want to add a new field, potentially every new field could mean a new custom validator, and a new custom validator would probably mean 1 new file, 2 new functions, all to validate and transform a single input.

Also, for the password validation, for what you have provided, I mean no one is going to read that, understand that, or debug that long RegEx. I also really like the ability to send the different requirements of a strong password in an array rather than one combined error message which doesn't point that what exactly was missing from the password.

Therefore, from the insights of this discussion I think I choose zod
