Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Usage 🚀

Param Decorators

@EnumQuery()

Use the EnumQuery decorator when you expect a single enum value as a query parameter. This will validate the query parameter against a predefined enum and generate Swagger documentation for it.

Parameters:

  • options:
    • key: The name of the query parameter (required).
    • enum: The enum to validate against (required).
    • separator: The delimiter for multiple values (optional, default: ,).
    • description: A description for Swagger documentation (optional).
    • nullable: If true, the query parameter is allowed to be null (optional, default: false).
    • singleValue: Only used internally for EnumQuery to indicate a single value (you don't need to set this manually).

Example for usage:


import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { EnumQuery } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

enum StatusEnum {
  ACTIVE = 'active',
  INACTIVE = 'inactive',
}

@Controller()
export class ItemController {
  @Get('items')
  getItemByStatus(
    @EnumQuery({
      key: 'status',
      enum: StatusEnum,
      description: 'Status of the item',
      nullable: false,
    })
    status: StatusEnum,
  ) {
    return status;
  }
}

/*
  Request: GET /items?status=active
  Response: active
*/

@EnumsQuery()

Use the EnumsQuery decorator when you expect multiple enum values as query parameters, separated by a custom delimiter (default is ,). This will validate the query parameters against a predefined enum and generate Swagger documentation for them.

Parameters:

  • options:

    • key: The name of the query parameter (required).
    • enum: The enum to validate against (required).
    • separator: The delimiter for multiple values (optional, default: ,).
    • description: A description for Swagger documentation (optional).
    • nullable: If true, the query parameter is allowed to be null (optional, default: false).
    • singleValue: Only used internally for EnumQuery to indicate a single value (you don't need to set this manually).

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { EnumsQuery } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

enum CategoryEnum {
  ELECTRONICS = 'electronics',
  FASHION = 'fashion',
  BOOKS = 'books',
}

@Controller()
export class ProductController {
  @Get('products')
  getProductsByCategories(
    @EnumsQuery({
      key: 'categories',
      enum: CategoryEnum,
      description: 'Categories of the product',
      separator: ',',
      nullable: false,
    })
    categories: CategoryEnum[],
  ) {
    return categories;
  }
}

/*
  Request: GET /products?categories=books,fashion
  Response: ["books", "fashion"]
*/

@Id()

Use the Id decorator to validate a single UUID, either from the route parameters or query parameters. If the provided value is not a valid UUID, it will throw a UuidException from the @hodfords/nestjs-exception package.

Parameters:

  • options (string | ParamOptions):

    • key: The name of the parameter in the request (required).
    • nullable: If true, the parameter is allowed to be null (optional, default: false).

Example for usage:

  Response: 8be26127-c0ed-4cad-bd45-7f40dcf53e89
*/

@Ids()

Use the Ids decorator when you need to validate multiple UUIDs passed as a comma-separated list in the query parameters. If any value in the list is not a valid UUID, it throws a UuidException from the @hodfords/nestjs-exception package.

Parameters:

  • options (string | ParamOptions):

    • key: The name of the parameter in the request (required).
    • nullable: If true, the parameter is allowed to be null (optional, default: false).

export class UserController {
  @Get()
  getUsersByIds(@Ids('ids') ids: string[]) {
    return ids;
  }
}

/*
  Request: GET users?ids=8be26127-c0ed-4cad-bd45-7f40dcf53e89,1b3a0d50-2695-49e7-9498-c4cb1cada6e9

Parameters: key (default: 'id')

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Int } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('users')
export class UserController {
  @Get(':id')
  getUserById(@Int('id') id: number) {
    return id;
  }
}

/*
  Request: GET /users/123
  Response: 123
*/

@Ints()

The Ints decorator is used to validate multiple integers passed as a comma-separated list in query parameters.

Parameters: key (default: 'ids')

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Ints } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('users')
export class UserController {
  @Get()
  getUsersByIds(@Ints('ids') ids: number[]) {
    return ids;
  }
}

/*
  Request: GET /users?ids=123,456
  Response: [123,456]
*/

@Pagination()

The Pagination decorator is used to handle pagination logic by extracting the page and perPage parameters from the query string of an incoming request. The decorator also includes automatic Swagger documentation using nestjs/swagger.

Parameters:

  • paginationParams:
    • page: The current page number (optional, default: 1).
    • perPage: The number of items per page (optional, default: 10, max: 1000).

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';

@Controller('users')
export class UserController {
  @Get()
  getUsers(
    @Pagination() pagination: PaginationParams
  ) {
    return `Page: ${pagination.page}, Per Page: ${pagination.perPage}`;
  }
}

/*
  Request: GET /users?page=1&perPage=10
  Response: Page: 1, Per Page: 10
*/

@QueryBoolean()

The QueryBoolean decorator allows you to extract and validate boolean values from the query parameters in a NestJS route. It checks if the query parameter is 'true' and returns true, otherwise it returns false.

Parameters: key, options (ApiQueryOptions)

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { QueryBoolean } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('users')
export class UsersController {
  @Get()
  getUsers(@QueryBoolean('isActive') isActive: boolean) {
    return isActive;
  }
}

/*
  Request: GET /users?isActive=true
  Response: true

  Request: GET /users?isActive=123
  Response: false
*/

@QueryStrings()

The QueryStrings decorator extracts query parameters from HTTP requests, parses them as comma-separated strings, and ensures uniqueness by eliminating duplicates. Additionally, it integrates with @nestjs/swagger to automatically document the query parameters in the Swagger UI.

Parameters: key, options (ApiQueryOptions)

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { QueryStrings } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller()
export class AppController {
    constructor() {}

    @Get()
    findTags(@QueryStrings('tags') tags: string[]): string[] {
        return tags;
    }
}

/*
  Request: GET ?tags=name,age
  Response: ["name, "age"]
*/

@RealIp()

The RealIp decorator is a custom NestJS decorator that retrieves the client's real IP address from an incoming HTTP request. It leverages the @supercharge/request-ip library to accurately identify the IP address, even if the client is behind a proxy or using a load balancer.

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get } from '@nestjs/common';
import { RealIp } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('users')
export class UserController {

    @Get('ip')
    getClientIp(@RealIp() ip: string): string {
        return `Client IP: ${ip}`;
    }
}

/*
  Request: GET /ip
  Response: "Client IP": "203.0.113.195"
*/

@RequireToUploadFile()

The RequireToUploadFile decorator is a custom NestJS decorator that simplifies file upload handling for single and multiple file uploads. It leverages NestJS Interceptors and custom interceptors to validate file uploads. The decorator allows developers to specify file upload configurations like file size limits, allowed MIME types, and custom storage engines.

Parameters:

  • fieldName: Specifies the form field name used to upload the file(s).
  • options: An object that configures the file upload behavior. It includes:
    • fileSize: Maximum file size (in bytes) for the upload. Default is set to 10 * 1024 * 1024.
    • allowedMimeTypes: Array of allowed MIME types for the uploaded files. Default is ['image/png', 'image/jpeg', 'image/jpg', 'image/svg+xml', 'image/bmp', 'image/heic', 'image/heif', 'application/pdf', 'application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet', 'application/vnd.ms-excel'].
    • maxCount: Maximum number of files that can be uploaded in a single request.
    • storageEngine: Custom storage engine for handling uploaded files (e.g., disk storage or cloud storage).

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Post, UploadedFiles } from '@nestjs/common';
import { RequireToUploadFile } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('files')
export class FileController {
    @Post('upload')
    @RequireToUploadFile({ fieldName: 'file' })
    uploadFile(@UploadedFiles() file: Express.Multer.File[]) {
        return file;
    }
}

If you want only upload with one file and present it as a object, you can follow below:

import { Controller, Post, UploadedFile } from '@nestjs/common';
import { RequireToUploadFile } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('files')
export class FileController {
    @Post('upload')
    @RequireToUploadFile({ fieldName: 'file', options: { maxCount: 1 } })
    uploadFile(@UploadedFile() file: Express.Multer.File) {
        return file;
    }
}

@RequireToUploadFiles()

The RequireToUploadFiles decorator simplifies the process of uploading multiple files with different field names in NestJS. It uses the FileFieldsInterceptor from @nestjs/platform-express to manage multiple file uploads from distinct form fields and allows customization through file upload options. The decorator integrates with custom interceptors for additional validation and handling of the uploaded files.

Parameters:

  • fieldNames:
    • name: The name of the form field.
    • maxCount: (Optional) Maximum number of files allowed for this field. If not provided, defaults to the global maxCount value.
  • options:
    • fileSize: Maximum file size (in bytes).
    • allowedMimeTypes: Array of allowed MIME types for uploaded files.
    • maxCount: Default maximum number of files allowed per field.
    • storageEngine: Custom storage engine to handle file uploads.

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Post, UploadedFile } from '@nestjs/common';
import { RequireToUploadFile } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('files')
export class FileController {
    @Post('upload')
    @RequireToUploadFiles({
        fieldNames: [
            { name: 'profile', maxCount: 1 },
            { name: 'documents', maxCount: 5 }
        ]
    })
    uploadUserFiles(@UploadedFiles() files: { profile: Express.Multer.File[]; documents: Express.Multer.File[] }) {
        return files;
    }
}

@Sort()

The Sort decorator simplifies handling sorting parameters in NestJS controllers. It defines two query parameters, sortField and sortDirection, allowing API clients to specify how to sort data in their requests. The decorator integrates with Swagger for automatic API documentation and validates the sorting fields and directions against predefined sets of allowed values.

Parameters:

  • sortParams:
    • allowedFields: An array of allowed fields for sorting (e.g., ['name', 'createdAt']).
    • default: An object with default sorting parameters:
      • sortField: The default field to sort by.
      • sortDirection: The default sorting direction (ASC or DESC).

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get, Query } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Sort, SortParams } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('users')
export class UserController {

    @Get()
    getUsers(@Sort({ allowedFields: ['name', 'createdAt'], default: { sortField: 'createdAt', sortDirection: 'DESC' } }) query: SortParams) {
        const { sortField, sortDirection } = query;
        return `Sorted by ${sortField} in ${sortDirection} order`;
    }
}

/*
  Request: GET ?sortField=createdAt&sortDirection=DESC
  Response: Sorted by createdAt in DESC order
*/

@Sorts()

The Sorts decorator provides an elegant solution for handling multiple sorting fields in NestJS controllers. It allows clients to specify multiple fields and their respective sort directions. The decorator automatically generates Swagger documentation for these parameters and ensures proper validation of both fields and directions.

Parameters:

  • sortParams:
    • allowedFields: An array of allowed fields for sorting (e.g., ['name', 'createdAt']).
    • default: An object with default sorting parameters:
      • sortField: The default field to sort by.
      • sortDirection: The default sorting direction (ASC or DESC).

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get, Query } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Sorts, SortMultipleParams } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('users')
export class UserController {

    @Get()
    getUsers(
        @Sorts({ allowedFields: ['name', 'createdAt'], default: { sortField: 'createdAt', sortDirection: 'DESC' } })
        query: SortMultipleParams[]
    ) {
        return query;
    }
}

/*
  Request: GET ?sortFields=createdAt,name:DESC
  Response: [
  {
    "field": "createdAt",
    "direction": "ASC"
  },
  {
    "field": "name",
    "direction": "DESC"
  }
]
*/

@Timestamp()

The Timestamp decorator is used to extract and validate a timestamp from the request parameters or query in a NestJS controller. It ensures the timestamp is valid and handles optional or nullable parameters.

Parameters:

  • options:
    • key: The name of the parameter to extract (required).
    • nullable: Indicates if the timestamp can be nullable (optional, default: false).

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get, Query } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Timestamp } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('events')
export class EventController {

    @Get()
    getEvents(@Timestamp('timestamp') timestamp: number) {
        return timestamp;
    }
}

/*
  Request: GET /events?timestamp=1581739337
  Response: 1581739337
*/

@Timezone()

The Timezone decorator is designed to validate and extract a timezone string from request parameters or query in a NestJS controller. It leverages the dayjs library along with the timezone and utc plugins to ensure that the provided timezone is valid.

Parameters:

  • options:
    • key: The name of the parameter to extract (required).
    • nullable: Indicates if the timestamp can be nullable (optional, default: false).

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get, Query } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Timezone } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('events')
export class EventController {

    @Get()
    getEvents(@Timezone('timezone') timezone: string) {
        return timezone;
    }
}

/*
  Request: GET ?timezone=America/New_York
  Response: America/New_York
*/

@UserAgent()

The UserAgent decorator is a simple utility that extracts the User-Agent header from incoming requests in a NestJS application. This header typically contains information about the client's browser, operating system, and device.

Example for usage:

import { Controller, Get, Query } from '@nestjs/common';
import { UserAgent } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller('users')
export class UserController {

    @Get('user-agent')
    getUserAgent(@UserAgent() userAgent: string) {
        return userAgent;
    }
}

@Value()

The Value decorator is used to extract the value property from the payload of a microservice request in NestJS. It is a wrapper around the Payload decorator provided by @nestjs/microservices, allowing you to directly access the value property in microservice message handlers.

Example for usage:

import { Controller } from '@nestjs/common';
import { EventPattern } from '@nestjs/microservices';
import { Value } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';

@Controller()
export class MathController {

    @EventPattern('math.add')
    handleAddition(@Value() value: number) {
        return `Value received: ${value}`;
    }
}

Validators

@ExistIds()

The @ExistIds() decorator is used to validate whether all provided IDs exist in a specified database table column. It uses TypeORM to query the table and check if the given values match the records in the database.

Parameters:

  • table: The Entity class (which extends BaseEntity) represents the database table where the validation will be performed.
  • allowEmpty: A boolean to allow empty arrays as valid input (optional, default: false).
  • validationOptions: ValidationOptions from class-validator to configure custom messages and options.

Example for usage:

import { ExistIds } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';
import { Entity } from 'typeorm';
import { BaseEntity } from '@hodfords/typeorm-helper';

@Entity()
export class UserEntity extends BaseEntity {
  @PrimaryGeneratedColumn('uuid')
  id: string;
}

class UserRequestDto {
  @ExistIds(UserEntity)
  userIds: string[];
}

@Exists()

The @Exists() decorator is used to validate if a specific value exists in a column of a database table. It supports case-insensitive searches and custom query conditions to allow more flexible validations.

Parameters:

  • table: The Entity class (which extends BaseEntity) represents the database table where the validation will be performed.
  • column: The column name in the database to check the existence of the value.
  • caseInsensitive: A boolean to enable case-insensitive comparison (option, default: false).
  • customs: An array of custom conditions that apply additional filters to the query (optional).
  • validationOptions: ValidationOptions from class-validator to configure custom messages and options (optional).
import { Exists } from '@hodfords/nestjs-base-decorator';
import { Entity } from 'typeorm';
import { IsEmail } from 'class-validator';
import { BaseEntity } from '@hodfords/typeorm-helper';

@Entity()
export class UserEntity extends BaseEntity {
  @Column()
  email: string;
}

class UserRequestDto {
  @Exists(UserEntity, 'email')
  @IsEmail()
  email: string;
}
