Nest.js - request entity too large PayloadTooLargeError: request entity too large
I'm trying to save a JSON into a Nest.js server but the server crash when I try to do it, and this is the issue that I'm seeing on the console.log: [Nest] 1976 - 2018-10-12 09:52:04 [ExceptionsHandler] request entity too large PayloadTooLargeError: request entity too large One thing is the size of the JSON request is 1095922 bytes, Does any one know How in Nest.js increase the size of a valid request? Thanks!
I found the solution, since this issue is related to express (Nest.js uses express behind scene) I found a solution in this thread Error: request entity too large, What I did was to modify the main.ts file add the body-parser dependency and add some new configuration to increase the size of the JSON request, then I use the app instance available in the file to apply those changes. import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core'; import * as bodyParser from 'body-parser'; import { AppModule } from './app.module'; async function bootstrap() { const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule); app.useStaticAssets(`${__dirname}/public`); // the next two lines did the trick app.use(bodyParser.json({limit: '50mb'})); app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({limit: '50mb', extended: true})); app.enableCors(); await app.listen(3001); } bootstrap();
