NestJs Tus Server Example

Motivation

I wrote this demo code while researching use of Resumable upload implementation for NestJS, as a way for myself to tinker with different implementation before I include in production code, and also to provide me with quick reference in the future.

Description

An example implementation of TUS file server in NestJS framework.

Installation

$ npm install

Initialize env file.

$ cp .env.example .env

By default this uses the local file store option, but can also store to S3. Need to provide AWS config in .env for this to work.

Running the app

# development
$ npm run start

# watch mode
$ npm run start:dev

# production mode
$ npm run start:prod
