NestJS Development Patterns
Production-grade NestJS patterns for modular TypeScript backends.
When to Activate
- Building NestJS APIs or services
- Structuring modules, controllers, and providers
- Adding DTO validation, guards, interceptors, or exception filters
- Configuring environment-aware settings and database integrations
- Testing NestJS units or HTTP endpoints

└── prisma/ or database/- Keep domain code inside feature modules.
- Put cross-cutting filters, decorators, guards, and interceptors in
common/. - Keep DTOs close to the module that owns them.
Bootstrap and Global Validation
ts
async function bootstrap() {
const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule, { bufferLogs: true });
app.useGlobalPipes(
new ValidationPipe({
whitelist: true,
forbidNonWhitelisted: true,
transform: true,
transformOptions: { enableImplicitConversion: true },
}),
);
app.useGlobalInterceptors(new ClassSerializerInterceptor(app.get(Reflector)));
app.useGlobalFilters(new HttpExceptionFilter());
await app.listen(process.env.PORT ?? 3000);
}
bootstrap();- Always enable
whitelistandforbidNonWhitelistedon public APIs. - Prefer one global validation pipe instead of repeating validation config per route.
Modules, Controllers, and Providers
ts
@Module({
controllers: [UsersController],
providers: [UsersService],
exports: [UsersService],
})
export class UsersModule {}
@Controller('users')
export class UsersController {
constructor(private readonly usersService: UsersService) {}
@Get(':id')
getById(@Param('id', ParseUUIDPipe) id: string) {
return this.usersService.getById(id);
}
@Post()
create(@Body() dto: CreateUserDto) {
return this.usersService.create(dto);
}
}
@Injectable()
export class UsersService {
constructor(private readonly usersRepo: UsersRepository) {}
async create(dto: CreateUserDto) {
return this.usersRepo.create(dto);
}
}- Controllers should stay thin: parse HTTP input, call a provider, return response DTOs.
- Put business logic in injectable services, not controllers.
- Export only the providers other modules genuinely need.
DTOs and Validation
ts
export class CreateUserDto {
@IsEmail()
email!: string;
@IsString()
@Length(2, 80)
name!: string;
@IsOptional()
@IsEnum(UserRole)
role?: UserRole;
}- Validate every request DTO with
class-validator. - Use dedicated response DTOs or serializers instead of returning ORM entities directly.
- Avoid leaking internal fields such as password hashes, tokens, or audit columns.
Auth, Guards, and Request Context
ts
@UseGuards(JwtAuthGuard, RolesGuard)
@Roles('admin')
@Get('admin/report')
getAdminReport(@Req() req: AuthenticatedRequest) {
return this.reportService.getForUser(req.user.id);
}- Keep auth strategies and guards module-local unless they are truly shared.
- Encode coarse access rules in guards, then do resource-specific authorization in services.
- Prefer explicit request types for authenticated request objects.
Exception Filters and Error Shape
ts
@Catch()
export class HttpExceptionFilter implements ExceptionFilter {
catch(exception: unknown, host: ArgumentsHost) {
const response = host.switchToHttp().getResponse<Response>();
const request = host.switchToHttp().getRequest<Request>();
if (exception instanceof HttpException) {
return response.status(exception.getStatus()).json({
path: request.url,
error: exception.getResponse(),
});
}
return response.status(500).json({
path: request.url,
error: 'Internal server error',
});
}
}- Keep one consistent error envelope across the API.
- Throw framework exceptions for expected client errors; log and wrap unexpected failures centrally.
Config and Environment Validation
ts
ConfigModule.forRoot({
isGlobal: true,
load: [configuration],
validate: validateEnv,
});- Validate env at boot, not lazily at first request.
- Keep config access behind typed helpers or config services.
- Split dev/staging/prod concerns in config factories instead of branching throughout feature code.
Persistence and Transactions
- Keep repository / ORM code behind providers that speak domain language.
- For Prisma or TypeORM, isolate transactional workflows in services that own the unit of work.
- Do not let controllers coordinate multi-step writes directly.
Testing
ts
describe('UsersController', () => {
let app: INestApplication;
beforeAll(async () => {
const moduleRef = await Test.createTestingModule({
imports: [UsersModule],
}).compile();
app = moduleRef.createNestApplication();
app.useGlobalPipes(new ValidationPipe({ whitelist: true, transform: true }));
await app.init();
});
});- Unit test providers in isolation with mocked dependencies.
- Add request-level tests for guards, validation pipes, and exception filters.
- Reuse the same global pipes/filters in tests that you use in production.
Production Defaults
- Enable structured logging and request correlation ids.
- Terminate on invalid env/config instead of booting partially.
- Prefer async provider initialization for DB/cache clients with explicit health checks.
- Keep background jobs and event consumers in their own modules, not inside HTTP controllers.
- Make rate limiting, auth, and audit logging explicit for public endpoints.
