Current behavior

When I start the development server using npm run dev:ssr, I get the following error:

./node_modules/@nestjs/mapped-types/dist/type-helpers.utils.js:69:27-63 - Error: Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'class-transformer/storage' in '/node_modules/@nestjs/mapped-types/dist'

Expected behavior

Starting the development server with no errors

p.s. : using an older version of class-transformer (v0.3.1) the server starts

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

npm run dev:ssr

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?

Using @nestjs/universal with the latest class-transformer

Environment

Nest version: 8.0.0

 
For Tooling issues:

[pmknk]

just need to add "class-transformer/storage" to the externalDependencies in angular json for the server section

[natejgardner]

@pmknk's fix works!
Would be great if ng add @nestjs/ng-universal included this automatically
