Helper library for accesing request from singleton services

NestJS request-context

Workaround for getting Request information from a non request-scoped service in NestJs. Initially taken from this gist, and then changed to use AsyncLocalStorage

Usage

Full example in test folder

@Module({
  imports: [RequestContextModule], // automatically binds the proper middleware 
  providers: [...],
  controllers: [..],
})
export class AppModule {}

Accessing request from service

@Injectable()
export class SingletonService {

  getRequestId() {
    const req: Request = RequestContext.currentContext.req;
    return req.requestId;
  }

}
