Can you use a FileInterceptor with a TransformPipe












1














I've met an issue with the TransformPipe - it works as long, as I don't use the FileInterceptor. Since I need both functionalities it confused me. I've created an issue on Github, but Kamil wrote on it, that it is a normal framework behavior. Nor I, nor my friends, didn't find any references to this "normal" behavior in the official documentation. Do you have any ideas?



Code is here:



Controller



@UsePipes(SamplePipe)
@UseInterceptors(FileInterceptor('file'))
@Post()
samplePost(@UploadedFile() file) {
return file
}


Pipe



@Injectable()
export class SamplePipe implements PipeTransform {
transform(value: any, metadata: ArgumentMetadata) {
console.log("I'm working")
return value;
}
}

          Pipes only work as the following types: 'body' | 'query' | 'param' | 'custom' corresponding to @Body(), @Query(), @Param() or custom decorators like @User(). In your example you don't have any of these and that's why the pipe is not applied.



          So if you add one of these to your example, the pipe will be applied (in this case to @Body()).



          @UsePipes(SamplePipe)
          @UseInterceptors(FileInterceptor('file'))
          @Post()
          samplePost(@UploadedFile() file, @Body() body) {
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
          return file
          }


          If you use @UsePipes() the pipe will be applied everywhere where applicable. You can also use @Body(SimplePipe) body to only apply the pipe to the body.

          • I'm assuming your referring to my last paragraph? If you for example have multiple @Params in your route, then @UsePipes is applied to all of them, whereas argument-scope ones only apply to one @Param. I don't see where there is a mistake, can you clarify?

          • Pipes are however never applied to the route itself but only its arguments. If you wanted to apply it to the whole route you'd use an Interceptor instead.
