Getting body from request is not working when using fastify HTTP platform with graphql and nestjs

dependencies:

• apollo-server-fastify: 2.9.16
• @nestjs/platform-fastify: 6.10.14

Steps to reproduce:

• setup basic project with Nest CLI
• use NestFastifyApplication to create fastify HTTP platform in NestFactory
• create GraphqlModule and import basic schema
• when reading the request object, I can’t retrieve the body and some other parameters which are documented in fastify documentation.

I have tried to get this information when creating app context or with middleware but with any success. Body parameter is available when I use express HTTP platform!

See example below:

// main.ts
async function bootstrap() {
  const app = await NestFactory.create<NestFastifyApplication>(
    AppModule,
    new FastifyAdapter({
      logger: false
    }),
  );
await app.listen(9040, 127.0.0.1);
}
bootstrap();

// graphql.module.ts

@Module({
  providers: [...],
  imports: [
    GraphQLModule.forRoot({
      introspection: true,
      typePaths: [path.join(__dirname, 'schema.graphql')],
      context: ({ req, params }): Context => {
        console.log('////////////////////////////////');
        console.log(req.body);
        console.log(req.query);
        console.log(req.params);
        console.log(req.headers);
        console.log(req.raw);
        console.log(req.id);
        console.log(req.ip);
        console.log(req.ips);
        console.log(req.hostname);
        console.log('////////////////////////////////');

        const userId = parseInt(params.userId, 10);
        const regionId = parseInt(params.regionId, 10);
        return {
          userId,
          regionId,
        };
      },
      path: '/vod/:regionId/:userId/graphql',
    }),
    .....
  ],
})
export class GraphqlModule implements NestModule {
  configure(consumer: MiddlewareConsumer) {
    consumer.apply(LogBodyMiddleware).forRoutes('/vod/:regionId/:userId/graphql');
  }
}

// log-body.middleware.ts
@Injectable()
export class LogBodyMiddleware implements NestMiddleware {
  use(req: any, res: any, next: () => void) {
    console.log('========================================');
    console.log(req.body);
    console.log(req.query);
    console.log(req.params);
    console.log(req.headers);
    console.log(req.raw);
    console.log(req.id);
    console.log(req.ip);
    console.log(req.ips);
    console.log(req.hostname);
    console.log('========================================');
    next();
  }
}

I only get values for the following request parameters headers, id, ip and hostname. How can I get body value and other values?

Fastify documentation for request object and its fields: https://www.fastify.io/docs/latest/Request/

What am I doing wrong here?

Since this issue was opened we’ve done major version upgrades of Fastify and Apollo Server itself. I do hear that people are still seeing this, but it’s hard to dig in without a reproduction that we can test out. I’m closing this, but if somebody posts a git repo or codesandbox showing the issue still existing with AS3 and the latest Fastify and Nest, we’ll be happy to reopen. That said, we’re not really Nest experts here and so you might get more help at https://github.com/nestjs/graphql
