Creating Reusable Components for Routes in React Router

When working with React Router, one common challenge developers face is how to create reusable route components for sub-routes. This not only enhances code organization but also promotes reusability. In this guide, we’ll explore how to create a DocumentsRoutes component that can be reused across different routes while avoiding common pitfalls that can lead to errors.

The Problem

You've structured your routes and identified repeatable patterns that can be abstracted into a reusable component. However, as you attempt to implement this in your React Router setup, you encounter an error stating that your component isn't a proper <Route> component. This error often arises because React Router expects its children to be specifically <Route> or <React.Fragment> components.

The Error Explained

The error you received:

This indicates that you are trying to use your reusable component in a way that React Router does not accept.

A Proper Solution

To successfully implement reusable routes with React Router, we can break it down into a few clear methods:

1. Utilize Nested Routes

If the parent component renders an <Outlet> component, you can set up your DocumentsRoutes as a "catch-all" nested route. This allows your DocumentsRoutes component to be rendered within the context of the parent route.

Here's an example of how to do this:

2. Render Directly as Nested Routes

Alternatively, you can define the routes directly under the parent path without needing a separate reusable component:

3. Descendent Routes with Wildcard Matching

Another effective strategy is to wrap your routes in a <Routes> component and render them as descendent routes within the DocumentsPackageRoot. To do this properly, append a wildcard matcher to ensure the descendent routes can also be matched:

Conclusion

Creating reusable route components in React Router enhances your application’s modularity and maintainability. By following the outlined methods, you can avoid pitfalls that often lead to common errors. Remember that effective management of routes is crucial for a seamless user experience in your applications. Happy coding!
