Description
(I did check this issue as well, but doesn't seem immediately related: https://github.com/fastify/fastify-reply-from/issues/334 )
Hello,
I am using the onResponse
hook to properly implement some custom tracing with OpenTelemetry and need the hook to otherwise behave normally, but trigger some extra logic to clean up a OpenTelemetry Span stored in the request. Note that I am using this inside of @fastify/http-proxy
but the underlying issue is coming from this package since that package simply wraps this one.
There seems to be a moderate issue when using TypeScript and overriding the onResponse
hook. Specifically, there's seemingly no good way to access the stream
on RawReplyDefaultExpression<RawServerBase>
that's assigned to the res
in that hook. I see that it's defined in Http2ServerResponse type in Fastify, and that RawReplyDefaultExpression
is supposed to be a union of all the possible response types (HTTP and HTTP2). I have my proxy configured as HTTP/1.
Previously, I was able to get away with
onResponse: async (
request,
reply,
res: RawReplyDefaultExpression<RawServerBase>
) => {
if (request.currentSubspan) {
request.currentSubspan.setAttribute(
"reply.elapsedTime",
reply.elapsedTime
);
request.currentSubspan.end();
request.currentSubspan = null;
}
reply.send(res);
}
),
http2: false,
But upon upgrading to Fastify 5.x and the latest version of this plugin, this no longer functions, despite res
itself being defined as a stream. Using this approach currently results in a blank response where it previously.
If you try to use res.stream
, you will get the following error in the TypeScript compiler.
Property 'stream' does not exist on type 'RawReplyDefaultExpression<RawServerBase>'.
Property 'stream' does not exist on type 'ServerResponse<IncomingMessage>'.
Right now, my workaround is.
onResponse: async (
request,
reply,
res: RawReplyDefaultExpression<RawServerBase>
) => {
if (request.currentSubspan) {
request.currentSubspan.setAttribute(
"reply.elapsedTime",
reply.elapsedTime
);
request.currentSubspan.end();
request.currentSubspan = null;
}
// eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-explicit-any
reply.send((res as any)?.stream);
},
http2: false,
This is really suboptimal for pretty obvious reasons. The actual structure of response
is not reflected in the TypeScript definition, so as a result, it's difficult to use properly. I suppose the "fix" here would be to ensure there's a definition of stream
in the type definition.

No response
Expected Behavior
I would expect the response.stream
property to be defined in some fashion in the exported TypeScript definitions for the onResponse
hook.
