Is there any annotation for authorize or has a way to custom annotation? about typescript-rest HOT 3 CLOSED

There is no Authorize annotation, for which you can add your login handler like in Java JSR.
The best answer to get authorization to work is this:

#23

I do not like it, because you need to register authenticated routes with midlleware. It would be nicer, if we could use annotation for path with list of roles as parameter. Similar to @RolesAllowed and @secured in Java.

Check out the new @Preprocessor feature as another way to implement this.

I used header parameter:
@HeaderParam('Authorization') token: string;
and used that data in every controller i required a authentication

public async getById(@PathParam('id') id: number): Promise<ReturnType> {
        const requestUser: User = await verifyToken(this.token);
        return new Promise<any>(async function (resolve, reject) {
            if (!requestUser) {
                throw new Errors.BadRequestError('The request was not valid');
            } 

It is not the nicest way but it also gives me the user that made the request to make additional validations further down the line.
Not sure if the @preprocessor also allows the return of a value.
