Nest.js | AI SDK 한국어

You can use the AI SDK in a Nest.js server to generate and stream text and objects to the client.

Examples

The examples show how to implement a Nest.js controller that uses the AI SDK to stream text and objects to the client.

UI Message Stream

You can use the pipeUIMessageStreamToResponse helper to pipe the stream data to the server response.

import { Controller, Post, Res } from '@nestjs/common';
import {
  pipeUIMessageStreamToResponse,
  streamText,
  toUIMessageStream,
} from 'ai';
import { Response } from 'express';

@Controller()
export class AppController {
  @Post('/')
  async root(@Res() res: Response) {
    const result = streamText({
      model: 'openai/gpt-6-astra',
      prompt: 'Invent a new holiday and describe its traditions.',
    });

    pipeUIMessageStreamToResponse({
      response: res,
      stream: toUIMessageStream({ stream: result.stream }),
    });
  }
}

Sending Custom Data

createUIMessageStream and pipeUIMessageStreamToResponse can be used to send custom data to the client.

import { Controller, Post, Res } from '@nestjs/common';
import {
  createUIMessageStream,
  streamText,
  pipeUIMessageStreamToResponse,
  toUIMessageStream,
} from 'ai';
import { Response } from 'express';

@Controller()
export class AppController {
  @Post('/stream-data')
  async streamData(@Res() response: Response) {
    const stream = createUIMessageStream({
      execute: ({ writer }) => {
        // write some data
        writer.write({ type: 'start' });

        writer.write({
          type: 'data-custom',
          data: {
            custom: 'Hello, world!',
          },
        });

        const result = streamText({
          model: 'openai/gpt-6-astra',
          prompt: 'Invent a new holiday and describe its traditions.',
        });
        writer.merge(
          toUIMessageStream({
            stream: result.stream,
            sendStart: false,
            onError: error => {
              // Error messages are masked by default for security reasons.
              // If you want to expose the error message to the client, you can do so here:
              return error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error);
            },
          }),
        );
      },
    });
    pipeUIMessageStreamToResponse({ stream, response });
  }
}

Text Stream

You can use the pipeTextStreamToResponse helper with toTextStream to pipe a text stream to the response.

import { Controller, Post, Res } from '@nestjs/common';
import { pipeTextStreamToResponse, streamText, toTextStream } from 'ai';
import { Response } from 'express';

@Controller()
export class AppController {
  @Post()
  async example(@Res() res: Response) {
    const result = streamText({
      model: 'openai/gpt-6-astra',
      prompt: 'Invent a new holiday and describe its traditions.',
    });

    pipeTextStreamToResponse({
      response: res,
      stream: toTextStream({ stream: result.stream }),
    });
  }
}
