Unable to import modules in nestjs

Question

I have three modules moviesModule, searchModule and configModule that I am trying to import

import { CategoryService } from './../category/category.service';

import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { DatabaseModule } from './../database/database.module';

import { AppController } from './app.controller';
import { AppService } from './app.service';

import { MoviesModule } from '../movies/movies.module';
import { ConfigModule } from '@nestjs/config';
import { SearchModule } from '../search/search.module';

import { PostController } from '../post/post.controller';
import { PostService } from '../post/post.service';
import { CategoryController } from '../category/category.controller';

@Module({
  imports: [
    DatabaseModule, MoviesModule //Error after adding here
  ],
  controllers: [AppController, PostController, CategoryController],
  providers: [AppService, PostService, CategoryService],
})
export class AppModule { }

As soon as I add any of the above three modules, I am getting error:

Command failed: taskkill /pid 27448 /T /F
ERROR: The process "27448" not found.

Answer 1

I would hazard a guess that your node version is on 14 or lower. The nullish coalescing assignment (??=) was introduced to Node in version 15 (stable major version 16) and should be available from there on
