How to reuse auth code for directory based routing

[nirav-blitzm]

Hi everyone,

I have couple of authenticated routes having flat and directory based routes structure. But it seems like I have to setup _auth.tsx code for each directory based routes and one for flat route. Please see below screenshot for more clarity

As you can see in the above screenshot I am setting up auth.tsx file 3 times. Is it possible to avoid multiple setup of _auth.tsx? Is it possible I can declare _auth.tsx once and reuse that auth in directory based routes too?

StackBlitz - https://stackblitz.com/edit/tanstack-router-xujzqs6k?file=src%2Froutes%2F_auth.tsx,src%2Froutes%2Fhelp%2F_auth.index.tsx,src%2Froutes%2Fhelp%2F_auth.tsx,src%2Froutes%2Ffaq%2F_auth.tsx,src%2Froutes%2Ffaq%2F_auth.index.tsx,src%2Froutes%2F_auth.invoices.tsx&preset=node

Cheers.

The pathless route can be a directory, this is what I do

src/routes
|── _auth
│   ├── faq
│   │   ├── route.tsx
│   ├── help
│   │   ├── route.tsx
│   ├── dashboard.tsx
│   ├── route.tsx // auth logic lives here
|── login.tsx
|── index.tsx

Or you can use the _auth prefix on your directories:

src/routes
|── _auth.faq
│   ├── route.tsx
│── _auth.help
│   ├── route.tsx
│── _auth.dashboard.tsx
│── _auth.tsx // auth logic lives here
|── login.tsx
|── index.tsx
