Request object

To access the client request details, you can ask Nest.js to inject the request object into a handler using the @Req() decorator. Nest.js uses express request objects.

For example,

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

@Controller('entries')
export class EntryController {
    @Get()
    index(@Req() req: Request): Entry[] {
        const entries: Entry[] = this.entriesService.findAll();
        return entries;
    }

The typings for the Request object come from express. Add the @types/express package to your devDependencies in package.json to use these typings.
