Common NestJS Interview Questions

Q: Explain NestJS dependency injection and provider scopes

A: NestJS uses Angular-like DI. Providers registered in module's providers array. Scopes: DEFAULT (singleton, shared across app), REQUEST (new instance per request), TRANSIENT (new instance per injection). Use @Injectable() decorator. Constructor injection recommended. Circular dependencies handled with forwardRef().

Q: What are guards, interceptors, and pipes in NestJS?

A: Guards: control route access (authentication, authorization), return boolean. Interceptors: transform response, bind extra logic, extend functionality (logging, caching). Pipes: transform/validate input data. Execution order: guards → interceptors (before) → pipes → controller → interceptors (after). Each serves distinct purpose in request lifecycle.

Q: How does NestJS handle microservices communication?

A: NestJS supports multiple transport layers: TCP, Redis, NATS, RabbitMQ, Kafka, gRPC. Create microservice with createMicroservice(). Use @MessagePattern() for message handlers. Hybrid apps support HTTP + microservice. Built-in retry logic, error handling. Choose transport based on requirements: gRPC for performance, RabbitMQ for reliability.

Q: Explain NestJS module system and dynamic modules

A: Modules organize application (@Module decorator). Feature modules, shared modules, global modules (@Global()). Dynamic modules configured at runtime, return DynamicModule interface. Use forRoot() for app-wide config, forFeature() for feature-specific. Example: TypeOrmModule.forRoot(options). Enables flexible, reusable module configuration.
