I have following export:
import * as jwt from 'jsonwebtoken';
...
export type JsonWebToken = typeof jwt;
Then, i try to use it like so:
export class AuthService {
constructor(
@Inject(constants.JWT) private readonly jsonWebToken: JsonWebToken,
// error here ^
){}
I'm getting this error, that pointing to JsonWebToken
:

Nest's dependency injection is not designed to work with non-DI types (such as the JWT library). My recommendation would be to make a wrapper component, using the jwt library according to ITS docs, then inject your wrapper to your controllers normally.
@Component()
export class JWTComponent {
signJwt(data) {
jwt.sign() // etc.
}
verifyJwt() {
jwt.verify() // etc.
}
}
