Summary
Add support for file upload fields in DTOs using the
@format binaryJSDoc tag for NestJS integration.Problem
Previously, file uploads were only recognized when using the
@UploadedFile()decorator. When a DTO class contained aMulterFiletype property, TJS would convert the entireMulterFileinterface into a schema, causingbuffer,stream, and other internal properties to appear in the Swagger UI.Solution
Use the
@format binaryJSDoc tag to explicitly indicate file upload fields in DTOs.Usage
Generated OpenAPI Schema
