Adding a routing file inside another routing file node.js

I want my routes to be like the following:

/
  /business
  /business/stuff1
  /business/stuff2
  /business/admin

for /business I want to have a separate file for the routing and functions. and also for /business/admin I want to have a separate file for the routing and functions.

so what I did is: app.js

//Business route
const business = require("./business/business");
app.use("/business", business);

This works fine - but when I add in business.js

//admin route
const admin = require("./admin");
app.use("/admin", admin);

I get 404 for some reason.

Depends on what you are exporing from business.js. It should be an instance of express.Router and you have to mount the /admin route on this instance. Example:

// business.js
const admin = require("./admin");

const businessApp = express.Router();
businessApp.use("/admin", admin);

module.exports = businessApp;
