remix-custom-router

remix-custom-router is a Vite plugin for dynamically managing Remix project routes. It simplifies route discovery and configuration by analyzing your project's folder structure, allowing you to focus on building features rather than handling manual route setups.

Features

Dynamic Route Discovery: Automatically configures routes based on the specified folder structure.
Custom Parameters: Supports dynamic and nested route parameters.
Plug-and-Play Integration: Easily integrates with Vite and Remix projects.

Installation

npm install remix-custom-router

Usage

Vite Configuration

Add the plugin to your vite.config.ts:

import { customRoute } from "remix-custom-router";

export default defineConfig({
   plugins: [
      remix({
         routes : async (defineRoutes) => {
            return customRoute("app/routes", defineRoutes);
         }
      }),
      tsconfigPaths(),
   ],
});

Folder Structure

Organize your routes in the following structure:

app/
└── routes/
    ├── index.tsx          // Maps to '/'
    ├── about.tsx          // Maps to '/about'
    ├── blog/
    │   ├── index.tsx      // Maps to '/blog'
    │   └── [slug].tsx     // Maps to '/blog/:slug'
    └── dashboard/
        └── [id].tsx       // Maps to '/dashboard/:id'

How It Works

Files named index.tsx map to /.
Files with [param] syntax map to dynamic parameters (e.g., /blog/:slug).
Nested folders create nested routes.

Passing Parameters

Dynamic parameters (e.g., [id]) are automatically recognized. For example, if you have:

routes/
└── user/
    └── [id].tsx

You can access the id parameter in your component using Remix's useParams hook:

import { useParams } from "@remix-run/react";

export default function User() {
    const { id } = useParams();
    return <div>User ID: {id}</div>;
}

Build & Run

Build the project:
```
npm run build
```
Run your Vite development server, and the routes will automatically load.
