A plop generator for routes of Remix. The package was developed to simplify the generation of the route component of the Folders for Organization configuration in Remix

This package is hosted on npm.

npm install --save-dev @soartec-lab/plop-create-remix-route

If you haven't installed plop yet, please install it together.

npm install --save-dev plop

First, load it in the plop file. Update plopfile.js as follows:

export default async function (plop) {
+	await plop.load("@soartec-lab/plop-create-remix-route");
}

Now you are ready. Let's start the command.

$ npx plop create-remix-route-component

? Which type of component do you want to create? route from URL path
? What is the URL path?

  ex)

  | URL you need to input | route file path    | create component name |
  |-----------------------|--------------------|-----------------------|
  | /users                | users._index       | UsersRoute            |
  | /users/posts          | users.posts._index | UsersPostsRoute       |
  | users/:id             | users.$id          | UserRoute             |

  ? users/:id/posts/:id
✔  ++ /app/routes/users.$id.posts.$id/route.tsx
✔  ++ /app/routes/users.$id.posts.$id/route.test.tsx

Here, by selecting route from URL path as the component type to create and entering users/:id/posts/:id, we generate a route component that matches the URL.

The component type that can be individually created are as follows:

If you want to create a route component from a URL path, select this type. For example, if you enter users/:id/posts/:id, the following files will be created:

• app/routes/users.$id.posts.$id/route.tsx
• app/routes/users.$id.posts.$id/route.test.tsx

If you want to create a route component by specifying a file path, select this type. For example, if you enter users._index, the following files will be created:

• app/routes/users._index/route.tsx
• app/routes/users._index/route.test.tsx

If you want to create a feature component instead of a route component, select this type. For example, if you choose users._index/user-list, the following files will be created:

• app/routes/users._index/user-list.tsx
• app/routes/users._index/user-list.test.tsx

While routes of Remix is flexible and consistent, I find the catch-up cost high. Folders for Organization is one of the aspects. By using this library, you can create components more intuitively.

If you have any issues or ideas for feature additions, please create an issue or mention me on X. Feedback is welcome.
