Using this with the Mongoose module about ng-universal

[kresdjan]

Plus one.

I would like to be able to combine these two modules however if you want a temp solution I was able to get this to work from the Documentation

I say temp because I haven't tested, might be production ready?
^^ (Nope, doesn't have the server side redering for Direct URLs)
in your main.ts/server.ts

import * as path from 'path';
const DIST_FOLDER = path.join(process.cwd(), 'dist');
const DIST_BROWSER_FOLDER = path.join(DIST_FOLDER, 'browser');

async function bootstrap() {
  const app = await NestFactory.create(ApplicationModule);
  app.setViewEngine('html');
  app.useStaticAssets(DIST_BROWSER_FOLDER);
  app.setBaseViewsDir(DIST_BROWSER_FOLDER);
  const port = process.env.PORT || '4081';
  await app.listen(port);
  console.log('Started Server on Port ', port);
}
bootstrap();

UPDATE ^^^

I created a branch here with an example of using the MongooseModule with out this Module. I feel like it's a hack job and missing a few things but lets me continue with development until this issue is resolved.

A Few Notes:
You can't use the global prefix, add api/ to the controller (much like versioning)
The controller example is in the the mongo folder

Can not use Mongoose with this module. When I try to run the main.js after build for production I always got the following error:

Can you help me to solve it?

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, some Node.js packages (especially native bindings) cannot be easily bundled using Webpack. In order to get rid of errors, you have to adjust your webpack configuration (webpack.server.config.js):

const webpack = require('webpack');
const WebpackConfigFactory = require('@nestjs/ng-universal')
  .WebpackConfigFactory;
const nodeExternals = require('webpack-node-externals');

/**
 * In fact, passing following configuration to the WebpackConfigFactory is not required
 * default options object returned from this method has equivalent entries defined by default.
 *
 * Example: WebpackConfigFactory.create(webpack);
 */
const webpackOptions = WebpackConfigFactory.create(webpack, {
  // This is our Nest server for Dynamic universal
  server: './server/main.ts',
});

const whitelistedPackages = /^(?!(livereload|concurrently|mongoose)).*/;
webpackOptions.externals[1] = nodeExternals({
  whitelist: whitelistedPackages,
});

webpackOptions.plugins.push(
  new webpack.IgnorePlugin({
    checkResource(resource) {
      const lazyImports = [
        '@nestjs/microservices',
        'cache-manager',
        'class-validator',
        'class-transformer',
      ];
      if (!lazyImports.includes(resource)) {
        return false;
      }
      try {
        require.resolve(resource);
      } catch (err) {
        return true;
      }
      return false;
    },
  }),
);

module.exports = webpackOptions;

Then, it will work fine (keep in mind that you'll have to install mongoose package alongside your bundle because it's excluded from the compilation).

PS. If you're also using mongodb package directly, you might need to exclude it as well:

const whitelistedPackages = /^(?!(livereload|concurrently|mongoose|mongodb)).*/;
