NestJS Tutorial #15 - Session Stores

[@anantjain811]

Error: "getRepository is deprecated on version 0.3.0 and up" can be resolved by making the following change in "main.ts" file:
const sessionRepository = app.get(DataSource).getRepository(SessionEntity);
Here, "DataSource" needs to be imported from typeorm package :)

Thought you were just a life saver. then i saw the deathnote profile 💥 you're on GodMode

Thx man!

[@msrini]

I was looking for this solution for the past 2 days. Thanks a lot

Thx!

[@azeezabdulsalam2117]

I've been having this issue for some hours now and now i stumbled on this fix. Thanks man

[@AliAliOxenFree]

SessionsEntity worked perfectly when i did it like so:
@Column({ type: 'text' })
json: string;
@DeleteDateColumn({ type: 'timestamp', nullable: true })
destroyedAt?: Date;
another masterful lesson from AnsonTheDev! thanks so much for this series

Great job!
I've started learning NestJs and this is so helpful.

For the cleanupLimit, I was able to fix it by setting limitSubquery to false

[@mirzazplayz_rblx]

Dang bro watching you after so long time still same hype

[@sidaliassoul408]

Great video !! Can you make a video on how we get the session data directly from the memory store.

[@noname13345]

Can we 'renew' or give the user a new session when their old session expires without asking them to login.

[@AfifAlfiano]

I wanna ask something, why we need to @Inject service on each controller? is it problem just instance the service without inject it?

[@bugraotken]

While Anson was writing the code with provide and useClass, I was not following this way so when I tried the code without Inject, it didn't work and I was very surprised. Can someone explain please?

[@noname13345]

@@bugraotken I have the code working without inject, its just another way of doing dependency injections.

i found an error getRepository is deprecated on version 0.3.0 and up

[@b2omker]

Hi, i just faced the same problem.
First, i use @freshgiammi/connect-typeorm instead of the one in the video to avoid typeorm dependancies problems..
After that, in the app.module.ts, i change the constructor of the AppModule class and create a method to return Datasource:
export class AppModule {
constructor(private dataSource: DataSource) {}
getDataSource() {
return this.dataSource;
}
}
Now in the main.ts file, i add:
const sessionRepository = app
.get(AppModule)
.getDataSource()
.getRepository(SessionEntity);
In the app.use for the sessions settings , i put:
store: new TypeormStore({
cleanupLimit: 2,
limitSubquery: false,
ttl: 86400,
}).connect(sessionRepository)
And it seems to work.. I don't really know if this is a good way to do it but it's a patch waiting for Anson answer :p

[@wilschoy78]

@@b2omker thank you so much for sharing this idea it helps a lot...yeah waiting for Anson's answer too...

Hi! Can you explain in a video why getRepository is deprecated and how is the best way to solve it

[@insomnia6961]

Hi!
I solved it that way:
in your app module you define the datasource in your imports array:
TypeOrmModule.forRoot({
type: 'postgres',
host: process.env.POSTGRES_HOST,
port: +process.env.POSTGRES_PORT,
username: process.env.POSTGRES_USER,
password: process.env.POSTGRES_PASSWORD,
database: process.env.POSTGRES_DATABASE,
autoLoadEntities: true,
logging: false,
// entities:[
// 'dist/**/*.entity.js'
// ],
synchronize: true,
migrations: [
'dist/database/migrations/*.js'
]
}),
then you can inject the datasource with app.get into your main.ts:
const sessionRepository = app.get(DataSource).getRepository(Session)
(note, in my case it is "Session" not "SessionEntity" but it's the same model behind)

thank you so much

i confused see this video playlist

[@abdullahchaniago1081]

import {ISession} from 'connect-typeorm'
import { Column, Index, PrimaryColumn,Entity, DeleteDateColumn} from 'typeorm'
@Entity('sessions')
export class SessionEntity implements ISession{
@Index()
@Column('bigint')
expiredAt= Date.now()
@PrimaryColumn('varchar', {length:255})
id=''
@Column('text')
json: string=''
@DeleteDateColumn()
destroyedAt?: Date;
}
now the ISession need @DeleteDateColumn. what should i fill it? only Date?
