Bull events + Nestjs request scoped dependencies

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe it

I am currently migrating a manual bull setup into nestjs using this library. Everything works great, except reacting on bull events in cases, where the implementation of the "event handler" requires some request-scoped dependencies.

In my case for example, i am using MikroOrm and i want to create a new request-scoped instance for each request / job handling / bull event reaction. If i understand it correctly, for a processor, the request-scope actually means a "job-scope". So what i think is the issue in this case, is that there is no "request" (job) when reacting to a bull event and therefore request-scoped processor cannot be used to handle bull events.

Currently, if i want to create a new instance of the entity manager for each bull event and use it in all of the classes that are involved in the event handling, the only option i see is to bypass the DI system and instantiate everything on my own.

My two main questions are:

• does the proposed solution below make sense?
• is there any other already existing way to solve my problem? Eg use a fresh instance of the MikroOrm entity manager scoped to the entire event handling using the DI?

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like any bull event to create a new "request" context so that i can use the DI system just as with http controllers and bull job processing.

We were having the same issue and came to the same conclusion about the solution. Is there any work currently being done on this feature?
