I hava an entity with class-validator and pipe, and it works well. But the validator will check the params always , it is unexpected. It may be like this: ‘insert’ will check all the params , and ‘update’ will check params which was post, and ‘delete’ will not check;

l have found something about this: skipMissingProperties: true ,and beforeInsert from typeorm, but i dont know when and where to use it ,could u please give me some help?

Environment

@Post(':id')
@ApiOperation({
    title: 'Update data of an admin',
    description: 'Post method to edit details about a specific admin',
})
@Authorize(Roles.Admin)
@UsePipes(new ValidationPipe({ skipMissingProperties: true }))
async updateOne(@Param('id') id: string, @Body() admin: UpdateAdminDto) {
    const adminUpdated: IAdmin = await this.adminService.update(id, admin);
    return GenericResponse.Result(null, { adminUpdated });
}

@kamilmysliwiec doing what you propose, it continues validating all properties and I get Bad Request error.
