Nest: How to set limit value for jsonParser

[shekohex]

this issue should be asked in Stackoverflow in #nestjs tag.
but anyway, here is an example to achieve this,

in your bootstrap function in main.ts

...
import { json } from 'body-parser';
...
  const instance = express();
  instance.use(json({ limit: '50mb' // edit this }));
  const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule, instance, {
    bodyParser: false, // tells nest: don't use your bodyParser, we will take care of it. 
  });
...
  await app.listen(3000);

Actually, this should be enough:

import { json } from 'body-parser';
//////
const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule);
app.use(json({ limit: '50mb' // edit this }))
await app.listen(3000);

@shekohex in package @nestjs/core, it provider support with body parser, but could not configuration it, just like set limit value, i want to add configuration support for these

@twilroad I have posted above how to do that. When you apply body-parser middleware with your custom configuration, this one built-in nest won't be applied again.
