NestJS Using ConfigService with TypeOrmModule

Question

I set up a ConfigService as described in docs https://docs.nestjs.com/techniques/configuration

How can I use this service with the the TypeOrmModule?

TypeOrmModule.forRoot({
  type: 'mysql',
  host: 'localhost',
  port: 3306,
  username: 'root',
  password: 'root',
  database: 'test',
  entities: [__dirname + '/**/*.entity{.ts,.js}'],
  synchronize: true,
}),

See https://docs.nestjs.com/techniques/database#async-configuration Async Configuration chapter

import { ConfigService } from './config.service'
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common'
import { TypeOrmModule } from '@nestjs/typeorm'

@Module({
  imports: [
    TypeOrmModule.forRootAsync({
      imports: [ConfigModule],
      useFactory: (config: ConfigService) => config.get('database'),
      inject: [ConfigService],
    }),
  ],
})
export class AppModule {}
