Calling imperatively from controller does not work

Hello:

I’m trying to use express-validator imperative call in a controller as described in here. https://express-validator.github.io/docs/running-imperatively.html .

My code:

var myMethod = async function (req, res, next) {
  await body('email').isEmail().run(req);

  var errors = validationResult(req);
  console.log(errors);
}

The console will log an empty array if email is not present or email is invalid.

This code belongs to a controller, if I use the validation chain as a middleware it works as expected.

Thanks in advance.
