SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the repetitive, error-prone work of creating boilerplate backend modules in a NestJS microservices monorepo by generating all required files and enforcing project conventions so teams can deliver features faster and with fewer integration issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Complete scaffolding: Generates entity, Create/Update DTOs, module, gRPC controller, service, unit test, and mock factory following Lety 2.0 conventions.
  • Production-ready patterns: Enforces BaseEntity inheritance, snake_case column names, toResponseDto serialization, RequestContextService usage, BaseRpcException with gRPC status codes, and optional RabbitMQ handlers with ack/nack.
  • Use case: Rapidly add a new domain (e.g., Conversation) with relations, validations, and tests that integrate into apps/api and the shared libs folder.

Quick Start

Use the nest-module skill to scaffold a Conversation module with fields title:string, content:jsonb, author:ManyToOne(User), target service apps/api, and enable RequestContextService.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a NestJS module with TypeORM and gRPC in a monorepo?▼

To scaffold a NestJS module in a monorepo, this tool generates entities, DTOs, controllers, services, and unit tests. It enforces TypeORM 0.3 conventions, gRPC controllers, and RabbitMQ handlers for production-ready microservices.

How do I generate a NestJS entity with snake_case columns and BaseEntity inheritance?▼

Generating a NestJS entity with BaseEntity inheritance and snake_case columns is handled automatically during scaffolding. The tool enforces these conventions to ensure consistency across your TypeORM 0.3 microservices.

Does this module generator support RabbitMQ ack and nack handlers?▼

Yes, this NestJS module generator supports RabbitMQ by creating safe ack and nack handlers. It enforces these production-ready patterns to ensure reliable message processing within your microservices.

How do I add gRPC error handling with BaseRpcException in NestJS?▼

Adding gRPC error handling in NestJS is automated by injecting BaseRpcException with gRPC status codes. The scaffolding process integrates this directly into your generated controllers for robust microservice communication.

Can I generate unit tests and mocks for a NestJS microservice module?▼

Yes, you can generate unit tests and mock factories for NestJS microservice modules. The scaffolding process creates these alongside your services to ensure your codebase remains stable and fully tested.
