graphql-upload-minimal VS class-validator

Using the latest version of graphql-upload with NestJS can be quite tricky since it uses mjs, this means we need to use dynamic imports, alternative you can use graphql-upload-minimal, or graphql-upload version 13.

We add validation using https://github.com/typestack/class-validator.

I will make sure we get this documented.

Also OP can check out class-transformer + class-validator if he want to properly instantiate objects and validate them with precise and verbose output of potential format errors. OP can even go the god tier way by setting up a custom RxJS operator that does that for him easily.

Start by installing the class-transformer and class-validator packages for dto validation (see more in the docs), sharp for image optimization, and the S3 client packages.

The description of the request body model in NestJS is similar to the description of Ditsmod models, but NestJS uses decorators provided by the utility class-validator. In NestJS, it is customary to name the request body model with the ending *Dto (this is an abbreviation of Data transfer object):

You could use Zod or Superstruct to validate the types of values, or use typestack/class-validator if it makes sense.

Also, title of before article was I made 1,000x faster TypeScript validator library, but today's benchmark is showing that typescript-json is maximum 6,500x times faster. It's just because I added a new library class-validator in the benchmark and it is much slower than previous zod. Of course, I've continuously tuned the performance, but it just improved the performance about 2x times only.

Hello, In the last month I built a REST API template in Typescript to quickly bootstrap new projects, I tried to use the most updated modules available, I've also included a "todo" sample just to showcase how all the things work together, the main modules that I've used are: - expressjs + tsoa that allows to easily generate the OpenAPI spec without any additional steps (just declare your controllers via typescript) - class-validator to validate body requests (this is also useful as the OpenAPI will be automatically generated based on the classes that you define) - Jest for testing, I've included also unit and integrations test samples with an in-memory database
