Unable to use nestjs and admin-bro in the same app due to body-parser and formidable.

[blombergniklas]

Backend api built with nestjs serves call at /, endpoints looks like /users/me or /auth/login etc. Before adding AdminBro, call to /auth/login with post body of {"email": "<some-email>", "password": "<some-password>" } works fine. But when adding a module named Backoffice to my app.module.ts post body is not found when calling /auth/login and throws an exception in the controller. All calls to AdminBro works fine under /admin

@Module({
    imports: [
      AdminModule.createAdminAsync({
        imports: [
          TypeOrmModule.forRootAsync({
            imports: [SharedModule],
            inject: [ConfigService],
            useFactory: (configService: ConfigService) => configService.typeOrmConfig,
          }),
          UsersModule,
        ],
        inject: [UsersService, ConfigService],
        useFactory: (usersService: UsersService, configService: ConfigService) => {
          return {
            adminBroOptions: {
              rootPath: '/admin',
              resources: AdminBroResources,
            },
            auth: {
              authenticate: async (email, password) => {
                const user = await usersService.findOne({
                  email: email,
                  password: ConfigService.getPasswordsHash(password),
                });
                if (user) {
                  return { email: `${user.firstName}`, title: user.email.split('@')[0] };
                }
                return false;
              },
              cookiePassword: configService.get('COOKIE_SECRET'),
              cookieName: 'backoffice',
            },
          } as AdminModuleOptions;
        },
      }),
    ],
    // providers: [UsersService],
  })
  export class BackofficeModule {}

package.json dependencies used:

"@admin-bro/express": "^3.0.1", 
"@admin-bro/nestjs": "^1.0.0", 
"@admin-bro/typeorm": "^1.3.0", 
"express-formidable": "^1.2.0",

I've narrowed it down to ExpressLoader in this repo which moves jsonParser and urlencodeparser in layer stack below AdminBro router. Commenting this out breaks AdminBro but nestjs api works again.

Same here. How about adding admin panel as microservice?

Is this related to #7? I was able to overcome similar auth issues by using the approach outlined in https://github.com/SoftwareBrothers/admin-bro-nestjs/issues/7#issuecomment-743963341

@maxpeterson its working for me also with your setup. Thanks!

you must add app.use(express.json()); to index.js
