Global route for all controllers

[jezikk]

Hi,

is there any suggested way how to set a "global" route for all controllers?

For example, I want to define this route:
/api/

for my controllers:

@Controller('user')
export class UserController

@Controller('customer')
export class CustomerController

with the following result:

/api/user
/api/customer

Thank you

I was wondering about the same. In express you can prepend paths by using the Router, and then:

app.use('/a-route', aModule)

Is this existing in nest, or is a feature request?

@jezikk or combine it with https://github.com/pleerock/routing-controllers

Very interesting, that library allows both global prefixes and per-controller prefixes, such as:

@Controller("/users")
export class UserController {
    // ...
}

Hi @jezikk,
Since version 2.1.0 you can use setGlobalPrefix(prefix: string) method. Example:

const app = NestFactory.create(ApplicationModule);
app.setGlobalPrefix('api');

Should this work with swagger?

import {NestFactory} from '@nestjs/core';
import { SwaggerModule, DocumentBuilder } from '@nestjs/swagger';

// ....
const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule);
app.setGlobalPrefix('v1');
const options = new DocumentBuilder()
      .setTitle('title')
      .setDescription('API description')
      .setVersion('0.1')
      .addTag('tag')
      .build();
const document = SwaggerModule.createDocument(app, options);
SwaggerModule.setup('docs', app, document);

// ....

This doesn't add v1 as prefix in the documentation reflected on /docs/, but is reflected to the api, so I have to call /v1/... to get the endpoint.

Is this a bug?

@flogvit

// document
    .setBasePath('v1')

As you can create multiple swagger documents (like, for every API version) it makes sense that it is no automatically derived from app
