I am unable to find the settings where I can say I need one single file. Any NestJS Developer who can help


Solution

  • This is probably from nest build being ran inside a monorepo and Nest using webpack to bundle the source code together. In a non-monorepo project, nest build uses tsc, Typescript's compiler, to transpile the ts files to js which outputs each file individually rather than bundling them together. You can read more about Nest's CLI and building options here
