EntityFromBody does not work params undefined

[Christian24]

Hello,

I have the following controller:

@JsonController("/countries")
export class CountriesController {
private countryRepository: Repository<Country>;
constructor() {
    this.countryRepository = getEntityManager().getRepository(Country);
}
@Get()
getAll() {
return this.countryRepository.find();
}
@Get("/:id")
getOne(@Param("id") id: number) {
return this.countryRepository.createQueryBuilder("country").leftJoinAndSelect("country.specialities","speciality")
    .leftJoinAndSelect("country.thingsToNote","thingToNote").where("country.id = :id", {id}).getOne();
}

@Post("/:id")
@Authorized()
    create(@EntityFromBody() country: Country, @Res() res: Response) {
if(country) {
   return this.countryRepository.persist(country);
} else {
    res.send("No information provided")
}
}
}

It does not compile with the following error:

node_modules\typeorm-routing-controllers-extensions\decorators\EntityFromBody.js:15
        MetadataArgsStorage_1.defaultMetadataArgsStorage.params.push({
                                                        ^

    at tryModuleLoad (module.js:446:12)

Could it be that there is a bug there and that the array params needs to be instantiated first?

Thanks a lot, Christian

Can you reproduce your issue with the latest version of routing-controllers and this package?

Yes, I can:

Just did a quick test somewhere in code.
