How can I get soft deleted entity from typeorm postgreSQL?

I am trying to get soft deleted doc from postgreSQL database using typeorm find, findOne or query builder get/getMany methods, but it always return undefined. Is there a way to get deleted value?

By the docs it should only set a timestamp for deletedAt, and it definitely works, because I can update same record using update where from query builder.


I found out there is another solution. You can use the querybuilders .withDeleted() method to also return soft deleted entities.

Example

 const query = await this.manager
        .getRepository(FolderEntity)
        .withDeleted() 
        .createQueryBuilder('folder')
        .leftJoinAndSelect('folder.subStatus', 'status')
        .getMany()

Actually referring to the findOptions doc you can pass the withDeleted boolean that will retrieve the soft deleted rows.

for example:

const result = await this.repo.find({ where: { id }, withDeleted: true })
