I have created the nestjs app. In the root app folder I have these subfolders:
- dist
- migration
- src
- test
The migration folder contains typeorm migrations.
When run application with npm run start:dev I have this error:
import {MigrationInterface, QueryRunner} from "typeorm";
^^^^^^

I understand the error message and I know how to fix it when it relates to application's code.
However, my problem is that this error come from typeorm migration file: [app-root-folder]\migration\1587067680466-Init.ts
which shouldn't be used when application runs.
Why nestjs uses migration files. How can I ignore migration folder when running nestjs app?
