Current behavior

We are using custom provider defined like

{
    provide: AbstractStorageService,
    useClass: GCloudStorageService
},

where AbstractStorageService is obviously abstract class. During tests we need to call method from storage service. We are using INestApplicationContext.get() method to retrieve instance of current used storage service.

this.storageService = this.app.get<AbstractStorageService>(AbstractStorageService);

We are experiencing Argument of type 'typeof AbstractStorageService' is not assignable to parameter of type 'string | symbol | Type<AbstractStorageService>'. typing error.

Expected behavior

Accept abstract class as argument in INestApplicationContext.get().

nest/packages/common/interfaces/nest-application-context.interface.ts

Lines 15 to 18 in d5dca17

	get<TInput = any, TResult = TInput>(
	typeOrToken: Type<TInput> | string | symbol,
	options?: { strict: boolean },
	): TResult;

Interface still not support Abstract<TInput>
