RequestContextService

create

Creates a RequestContext based on the config provided. This can be useful when interacting with services outside the request-response cycle, for example in stand-alone scripts or in worker jobs.

Without a user, the resulting context is anonymous and carries no permissions, which services that perform permission checks will reject. Pass the User the context should act as — commonly the superadmin for administrative scripts:

const { superadminCredentials } = this.configService.authOptions;const superAdminUser = await this.connection.rawConnection.getRepository(User).findOneOrFail({    where: { identifier: superadminCredentials.identifier },    // The roles (and their channels) must be loaded, or the resulting context    // has the user's id but no permissions.    relations: { roles: { channels: true } },});const ctx = await this.requestContextService.create({    apiType: 'admin',    user: superAdminUser,});

fromRequest

Creates a new RequestContext based on an Express request object. This is used internally in the API layer by the AuthGuard, and creates the RequestContext which is then passed to all resolvers & controllers.
