No migrations are pending using Typeorm CLI and NestJS - postgresql

Question

The issue I'm facing is with running migrations using #nestjs/typeorm ^9.0.1 and typeorm ^0.3.12. Despite being able to build the project and create migrations, when I try to run them, typeorm can't find the migration files (No migrations are pending).
I have noticed that the version 0.3.x of typeorm requires Datasource object and that in the version 9.x of #nestjs/typeorm, TypeOrmModuleOptions does not have the cli : {migrationsDir : string} attribute.
Here's a link to the project that reproduces the problem, and an example directory structure :
src\configs\database\dataSource.config.ts
src\configs\database\postgres.config.ts
src\configs\database\migrations\1676252827402-Chat.ts
postgres.config.ts
import { DataSourceOptions } from "typeorm";
import { join } from "path";
import { config } from "dotenv";
import CustomNamingStrategy from "./customNamingStrategy";
import { registerAs } from "#nestjs/config";
import { TypeOrmModuleOptions } from "#nestjs/typeorm";
config();
export const databaseConfig: DataSourceOptions = {
name: "default",
type: "postgres",
url: process.env.DATABASE_URL,
ssl:
process.env.DATABASE_ENABLE_SSL === "true"
? {
rejectUnauthorized: false,
}
: false,
logging: process.env.DATABASE_ENABLE_LOGGING === "true",
entities: [join(__dirname, "../../models/*/", "*.entity.{ts,js}")],
migrations: [join(__dirname, "migrations/*.{ts,js}")],
synchronize: false,
migrationsRun: false,
namingStrategy: new CustomNamingStrategy(),
};
export default registerAs(
"database",
() =>
({
...databaseConfig,
keepConnectionAlive: true,
} as TypeOrmModuleOptions)
);
dataSource.config.ts
import { DataSource } from "typeorm";
import { databaseConfig } from "./postgres.config";
export const AppDataSource = new DataSource(databaseConfig);
package.json
"typeorm": "ts-node -r tsconfig-paths/register ./node_modules/typeorm/cli"
"migration:create": "yarn run typeorm migration:create"
"migration:run": "yarn run typeorm migration:run -d src/configs/database/dataSource.config.ts"
Although I can use the create command successfully, when I use the run command, it only displays the message "No migrations are pending". I attempted to resolve the issue by changing migrations path to the DataSourceOptions.migrations list, but it did not work. I also tried replacing the cli parameter datasource with the dist datasource, as well as adjusting the migration paths, but these changes did not fix the issue.

I'm facing a similar issue using the same version of typeorm (^0.3.12), so there might be a bug in this version.
It seems that the migrations are not found anymore if the DataSourceOptions.migrations property is set with the path to the migrations folder.
The ^0.3.12 version seems to be working fine only if the migration classes are directly referenced in DataSourceOptions.migrations, similar to the following:
import { Chat1676252827402 } from './migrations/1676252827402-Chat.ts';
export const databaseConfig: DataSourceOptions = {
...
migrations: [Chat1676252827402],
...
};
