Show HN: Remult – a CRUD framework for full-stack TypeScript
So I spent a lot of time in the Nest ecosystem, and I wrote some nontrivial libraries with a little (not a lot) of uptake (and neither are actively maintained at this point, so these are here mostly for completeness):
https://github.com/eropple/nestjs-auth
https://github.com/eropple/nestjs-openapi3
I was pretty excited by NestJS when I ran into it because, well--I don't mind magic, when it's done right. I quite like Spring Boot, for example. But NestJS's magic is...incorrect, in a lot of ways. The DI container is a little bit scary, with oddly hardcoded ways to register interceptors into request scope (itself necessary because NestJS's logging facilities aren't--or weren't at the time--decorating requests with X-Request-Id or similar, so you had to register your own) and no way to then define interceptor order.
It also has a lot of really overlapping nouns; guards are interceptors but less capable (and @eropple/nestjs-auth didn't use them at all) and the "pipe" concept for validation was itself inscrutable. To make it usable, I ended up just doing everything with decorators and interceptors, all living in request scope. And once I'd gotten it going, it was pretty nice. But it also meant broad incompatibilities with much of the NestJS ecosystem.
