NestJS-Redox v2.x

This NestJS module enables to auto-generate beautiful API docs using Swagger and Redoc. It supports NestJS 11, ExpressJS and Fastify.

Features

- NestJS 11 support
- ExpressJS and Fastify support
- Multi-user auth basic support
- Option "standalone" for self hosted redoc bundles without requesting a CDN.
- Option to disable Google fonts

Using the "standalone" Option in combination with "disableGoogleFont" respects the user's privacy and allows to serve the API reference offline.

nestjs-redox	NestJS

	v10	More information

Installation

npm install nestjs-redox

$3

By default NestJSRedox automatically loads the redoc bundle from a CDN. If you want to host it yourself, install redoc via npm install redoc and set standalone in RedoxOptions parameter to true. An additional fix replaces the redoc logo URL with a local saved image.
See chapter "setup".

Setup

In your main.ts file, before calling app.listen() insert the module setup (Fastify example more below):

$3

``typescript
import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core';
import { DocumentBuilder, SwaggerModule } from '@nestjs/swagger';
import { NestjsRedoxModule, NestJSRedoxOptions, RedocOptions } from 'nestjs-redox';
import { AppModule } from './app/app.module';

async function bootstrap() {
const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule);
// ...

const swaggerConfig = new DocumentBuilder()
.setTitle('NESTJS-REDOX API')
.setDescription('some description')
.setVersion('1.0.0')
.addBearerAuth()
.addSecurity('roles', {
type: 'http',
scheme: 'bearer',
})
.build();

const redocOptions: RedocOptions = {
requiredPropsFirst: true,
logo: {
url: 'https://redocly.github.io/redoc/petstore-logo.png',
},
theme: {
sidebar: {
width: '222px',
},
},
};

const redoxOptions: NestJSRedoxOptions = {
useGlobalPrefix: true,
disableGoogleFont: true,
standalone: true,
auth: {
enabled: true,
users: {
test123: 'test123',
test: 'test',
},
},
};

const document = SwaggerModule.createDocument(app, swaggerConfig, {
ignoreGlobalPrefix: false,
operationIdFactory: (controllerKey, methodKey) => methodKey,
});

NestjsRedoxModule.setup('reference', app, document, redoxOptions, redocOptions);

// ...
await app.listen(port);
}

bootstrap();
`
