NestjsxCrudRequestStrategy

src/strategies/nestjsx-crud-request.strategy.ts6 public methodsclass

Request strategy for the @nestjsx/crud driver

Generates URIs in @nestjsx/crud’s pipe-delimited query format:

  • Filters: filter=field||$eq||value (repeatable; multi-value collapses to filter=field||$in||v1,v2)
  • Operator filters: filter=field||$op||value (translated from FilterOperatorEnumCONTAINS$cont, ILIKE$contL, SW$starts, BTW$between, NOT$ne/$notin, NULL$isnull/$notnull with no value segment)
  • Joins: join=relation (repeatable, from addIncludes)
  • Field selection (flat): fields=col1,col2 (from addSelect)
  • Sorts: sort=field,ASC (repeatable, uppercase direction)
  • Pagination (page-based): page=N&limit=N

The JSON-shaped s={...} search parameter is intentionally out of scope: it is not a plain search term, so setSearch throws UnsupportedSearchError on this driver. PostgREST-native full-text search operators (FTS, PHFTS, PLFTS, WFTS) throw UnsupportedFilterOperatorError.

new NestjsxCrudRequestStrategy()
Property Type Description
capabilities StrategyCapabilities Filters, operator filters, joins (includes), flat field selection (select), sorts — no per-model fields, no global search (the s parameter is JSON-shaped, not a plain term)
assertResource(state: QueryBuilderState): void

Throw if the resource is not set on the state

Centralises the message that was previously copy-pasted across four of the five concrete strategies.

Parameter Type Description
state QueryBuilderState The current query builder state
baseUri(state: QueryBuilderState): string

Compute the base path (no query string)

Parameter Type Description
state QueryBuilderState The current query builder state

Returns — The base URI without the query separator (e.g. /users or https://api.example.com/users)

buildUri(state: QueryBuilderState, options: QueryBuilderOptions): string

Compose the full request URI from the given state

Template method: validates the resource, computes the base path, delegates the per-driver query-string segments to parts(...), and joins them with the conventional ?/& separators.

Parameter Type Description
state QueryBuilderState The current query builder state
options QueryBuilderOptions The query parameter key name configuration

Returns — The composed URI string

join(base: string, segments: string[]): string

Glue the base URI and the per-driver query-string segments

Returns the bare base when no segments were emitted (e.g. PostgREST in RANGE mode with no filters), otherwise joins with ? + &.

Parameter Type Description
base string The base URI from _baseUri
segments string[] The query-string fragments from parts(...)

Returns — The full URI

parts(state: QueryBuilderState, options: QueryBuilderOptions): string[]

Emit @nestjsx/crud-format query-string segments in canonical order: fields → filters → operator filters → join → sort → limit → page

Parameter Type Description
state QueryBuilderState The current query builder state
options QueryBuilderOptions The query parameter key name configuration (used for page / limit, whose defaults match the wire format; the fields / filter / join / sort keys are fixed by the server)

Returns — Ordered query-string fragments

validateLimit(limit: number): void

Validate that a limit value is acceptable for this driver

Default policy: positive integer. Drivers that recognise a sentinel (NestJS treats -1 as “fetch all”) override this method.

Parameter Type Description
limit number The limit value to validate
