Current behavior

With Nest 6, what is the proper way to disable the x-powered-by: Express header? It seems like disable(...) has been removed.

I don’t see any relevant information in the v6 documentation about this particular change.

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

async function bootstrap() {
  const app = await NestFactory.create(AppModule);
  app.disable('x-powered-by'); // no longer works
  app.use(nocache());
  await app.listen(1338);
}
bootstrap();

Environment


Nest version: 6.0.1

Thanks. I think the migration guide could use this information as well.

const app = await NestFactory.create<NestExpressApplication>(AppModule);
app.disable('x-powered-by');

NestExpressApplication is imported from @nestjs/platform-express package. see https://docs.nestjs.com/first-steps#platform
