Current behavior

executionContext.switchToHttp().getRequest() inside Guard return null, when I hit resolver using Graphiql (GraphQL IDE)

Expected behavior

executionContext.switchToHttp().getRequest() should return http request data

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

@Injectable()
export class RolesGuard implements CanActivate {
  constructor(
    private readonly reflector: Reflector,
  ) {}

  async canActivate(context: ExecutionContext): Promise<boolean> {
    try {
      const request = context.switchToHttp().getRequest();

Environment

Nest version: 5.3.6

 
For Tooling issues:
- Node version:  v10.9.0
- Platform:  MAC

While closed, the documentation isn’t great. There is nothing the explains what you’ll get back from getContext() of a GqlExecutionContext.

@WonderPanda see https://docs.nestjs.com/techniques/authentication GraphQL (there is an example how to achieve that)
