raw body option usage issue

[obh]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

Trying this doc to access the raw body for a request - https://docs.nestjs.com/faq/raw-body

But this only works for json requests and not form-encoded. This should be made clear in the docs.
The solution that i found was to just do this for form-encoded payload.

const rawBodyBuffer = (req, res, buf, encoding) => {
          if (buf && buf.length) {
               req.rawBody = buf.toString(encoding || 'utf8');
           }
};
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({verify: rawBodyBuffer, extended: true }));

Expected behavior

ideally you accept both json and form-encoded requests to work in the same way.
