Current behavior

Right now `@ApiResponseModelProperty({ … }) I require object list of a class.

Expected behavior

@ApiResponseModelProperty I want to be able to get a list of my class

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

i have 2 class: Articulo and UnidadMedida export class UnidadMedida extends BaseModel { @prop() descripcion: string; @prop() abrev: string; }

Class: Articulo export class Articulo extends BaseModel { @prop() nombre: string; @prop({ ref: UnidadMedida, required: true }) unidadmedida_id: Ref<UnidadMedida>; }

I have created a record class to show in the swagger, but I want to list the _id of my class unit measure

export class RegisterArticuloVm { @ApiModelProperty() nombre: string; @ApiModelProperty() unidadmedida_id: UnidadMedida (is my class UnidadMedida); }

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

I’m new using swagger, i don’t understand as obtain list of my class with ApiResponse Model Property

PD: I Love NESTJS ❤️

Hey @Russ3ll-Franz, you need to setup UnidadMedia with ApiModelProperties as well to display in the model. Something like below might help, the @IsString(), @Type() & @ValidateNested() decorators is for validation so might not be needed for your use case, but validation is always handy to have.

import { Type } from 'class-transformer';

export class UnidadMedidaDto {
  @ApiModelProperty({
    required: true,
    type: String,
  })
  @IsString()
  _id: string;

@ApiModelProperty({
    required: true,
    type: String,
  })
  @IsString()
  nombre: string;
}

export class RegisterArticuloVm { 
@ApiModelProperty() nombre: string; 

@ApiModelProperty({
    description: 'My descriptionr',
    required: true,
    type: UnidadMedidaDto ,
  })
  @ValidateNested()
  @Type(() => UnidadMedidaDto)

 unidadMedida: UnidadMedidaDto; 
}
