Use nestjs-config out of services

Issue type:

• [ x] question

nestjs-config version
0.6.3

@nestjs/common+core or other package versions

• @nestjs/common: 7.6.3
• @nestjs/core: 7.6.12

Excepted behavior

I want to use configuration params out of services and main.ts file. Eg in module.ts files to configure @nestjs/jwt module (secret, expiresTime) or in ormconfig file to configure databse. How can I import config in this files ?

How can new config be used with app.use in bootsrap file, and does it support env schema validation ?

You can still do it with the current version

import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';
import { ValidationPipe } from '@nestjs/common';
import { NestExpressApplication } from '@nestjs/platform-express';
import AppConfig from './config/app.config';

async function bootstrap() {
  const app = await NestFactory.create<NestExpressApplication>(AppModule);

  app.useGlobalPipes(
    new ValidationPipe({
      transform: true,
      //forbidNonWhitelisted: true,
      whitelist: true,
    }),
  );

  await app.init();

  const config = app.get(AppConfig);

  await app.listen(config.port || 9000);
}
bootstrap();

This was taken from one of my applications
