NestJS : transform responses


Typically you would use the built-in ClassSerializerInterceptor in combination with the ValidationPipe (with transform: true). It automatically calls classToPlain on the response:

In your dto (with toPlainOnly):

@Transform((money: ExchangeableMoney) => money.localValues, {toPlainOnly: true})public foobar: ExchangeableMoney;

In your controller:

@UseInterceptors(ClassSerializerInterceptor)

or globally in your main.ts:

app.useGlobalInterceptors(new ClassSerializerInterceptor(app.get(Reflector)));
