Cannot have body parameter in controller defined in separate file

[ZPiDER666]

i am trying to define a controller in its own file with a body param like this:

import { http, HttpBody, JSONResponse } from "@deepkit/http"
export class TestAPI2 {
	@http.PUT('/testParams')
	async testParams(body: HttpBody<any>) {
		const r = new JSONResponse({ body })
		r.header('content-type', 'application/json')
		return r
	}
}

but i get a runtime error when calling this endpoint.

looking into the reasons, i found this running compiled code:

if (!parameterResolverFound_6) parameters.body = _injector.get(_context.classType_6);

this line runs into the error, because _context == {} it looks like the controllers originating in a separate file are initialized with an empty context. unfortunately i cant really figure out where this code originates, as my prime suspect router.ts does not seem to contain any code ending up in this line.

note that when i define this class in the same file as my App.ts i do not run into this issue (but of course for my complex controllers this is not an option). what is even more confusing is that this has been working previously and i suspect a version problem.

my dependencies are:

"@deepkit/framework": "^1.0.1-alpha.85",
"@deepkit/http": "^1.0.1-alpha.85",
"@deepkit/type": "^1.0.1-alpha.85",
"@deepkit/type-compiler": "^1.0.1-alpha.83",

my @deepkit/http is at 1.0.1-alpha.85 (i tried newer versions with the similar results).

I added a test covering your code to make sure this (HttpBody<any>) actually works. I recommend upgrading to the newest version and see if it goes away since it works fine in master. See https://github.com/deepkit/deepkit-framework/commit/24d7c9c52c8e27047f38efc51f62ac6d2cd6d194
