diskStorage() not found in nestJs multer file upload

i want use multer in my nestJs application like this:

@Post()
@UseInterceptors(
    FileInterceptor('file', {
        storage: diskStorage({
            destination: './files',
        }),
    }),
)
async upload(@Request() req, @Query() query: any, @UploadedFile() file) {
    console.log(file);
}

But my IDE (vscode) keeps saying: Cannot find name 'diskStorage' and is not compiling. I also register the MulterModule on the specified Module (FeatureModule).

I can use

@UseInterceptors(
    FileInterceptor('file', { dest: '/data-path'}),
)

But i want change the filename for example. For this I need the diskStorage function

What can i do, to resolve the issue?

the solution was as described by @JayMcDoniel An extra import had to be made.

import { diskStorage } from 'multer';

With the help of this example, I was able to recreate and solve the whole thing again. https://github.com/TannerGabriel/Blog/tree/091cbf99bc9409629e1ab717ca8ec405c421d6d4/nest-file-uploading
