Netlify deploy fails Namespace 'global.Express' has no exported member 'Multer'.

[nolafs]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• [X] I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

Local build works perfectly fine. Following was added to my media module.

import {MulterModule} from "@nestjs/platform-express";
import {Multer} from 'Multer';

   MulterModule.register({
      dest: './uploads', // Set the destination folder for uploaded files
    })

and added the type Multer to the tsconfig. This has fixed the build for locally but when deployed to Netlfy, I get the following error:

Namespace 'global.Express' has no exported member 'Multer'.

Build is failing.

Steps to reproduce

You need build on netlify

Expected behavior

It should build without issues as my local build is doing
