[QUESTION] How to add userId for each authenticated request about nestjs-pino HOT 5 CLOSED

I was unable to do it with nestjs-configure-after because in our system the authentication is not performed with a middleware, but with a decorator on top of the controller method. So, if I understand correctly, the logging middleware will catch and store the request before the decorator in the controller is called.

My solution to this problem is to use the logger.assign (https://github.com/iamolegga/nestjs-pino#assign-extra-fields-for-future-calls) method to add the user id information to the log.

@vladiulianbogdan can you share snippet how you resolved that issue with decorators pls?
do you use logger.assign inside decorator or at controller itself? if in decorator, how do you pass it there?

Hi, for such purpose I've created this library, because nest doesn't have guarantee of modules registration and middlewares order, you can see discussion for same problem of middlewares order in another my package. All you need is wrap this module in another one with extra decorator, and add one to your passport/auth/whatever module.

and the second part is you need to find specific option to add new properties to logs

Feel free to ping me with your code exmaples
