React routes move sub-routes to separate module?

Is it possible todo the following with React Route?

Main

  <Routes handler={App}>
    <Profile path="profile" />
    <Explore path="explore" />
  </Routes>

Profile

    <Route>
      <Route name="dashboard" handler={ProfileDashboard} />
      <Route name="repos" handler={ProfileRepos} />
    </Route>

Explore

    <Route>
      <Route name="home" handler={ExploreHome} />
      <Route name="showcase" handler={ExploreShowcase} />
    </Route>

You can achieve that with React Router! :)

But I would suggest you to check it out the "plain routes" way to configure your routes:

https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router/blob/v2.8.1/docs/guides/RouteConfiguration.md#configuration-with-plain-routes

Using this, you will start working with a routes object, and you can just require another routes and create your route based on those combinations. Something like that:

const routes = {
    path: '/',
    component: App,
    childRoutes: [
        require('./profile'),
        require('./explore')
    ]
}

Then in your profile.js (you can do the same to explore.js) file, you will have something like that:

/* Import the ProfileDashboard and ProfileRepos here */

const profileRoutes = {
    path: 'profile',
    childRoutes: [{
        path: 'dashboard',
        component: ProfileDashboard
    }, {
        path: 'repos',
        component: ProfileRepos
    }]
};

And this way you can achieve what you want.

If you really can't use plain routes, you may do something like that:

<Route path="/" component={App}>
    { require('./profile') }
    { require('./explore') }
</Route>

And your profile.js, for example:

module.exports = (
    <Route path="profile">
        <Route path="dashboard" component={ProfileDashboard} />
        <Route path="dashboard" component={ProfileRepos} />
    </Route>
);

I don't know what React Router version you are using, but you can achieve that in any version, but, as a suggestion, try using the latest one. Since it handle lots of cool stuff.

Hope it helps!
