14React Router typically builds your server code into a single bundle that exports a request handler function. However, there are scenarios where you might want to split your route tree into multiple server bundles, each exposing a request handler function for a subset of routes. To provide this flexibility, [`react-router.config.ts`][react-router-config] supports a `serverBundles` option, which is a function for assigning routes to different server bundles.
15
16The [`serverBundles` function][server-bundles-function] is called for each route in the tree (except for routes that aren't addressable, e.g., pathless layout routes) and returns a server bundle ID that you'd like to assign that route to. These bundle IDs will be used as directory names in your server build directory.
17
18For each route, this function receives an array of routes leading to and including that route, referred to as the route `branch`. This allows you to create server bundles for different portions of the route tree. For example, you could use this to create a separate server bundle containing all routes within a particular layout route:
19
20```ts filename=react-router.config.ts lines=[5-13]
21import type { Config } from "@react-router/dev/config";
22
23export default {
24 // ...
25 serverBundles: ({ branch }) => {
26 const isAuthenticatedRoute = branch.some((route) =>
27 route.id.split("/").includes("_authenticated"),
28 );
29
30 return isAuthenticatedRoute
31 ? "authenticated"
32 : "unauthenticated";
33 },
34} satisfies Config;
35```
36
37Each `route` in the `branch` array contains the following properties:
38
39- `id` — The unique ID for this route, named like its `file` but relative to the app directory and without the extension, e.g., `app/routes/gists.$username.tsx` will have an `id` of `routes/gists.$username`
40- `path` — The path this route uses to match the URL pathname
41- `file` — The absolute path to the entry point for this route
42- `index` — Whether this route is an index route
43
44## Build manifest
45
46When the build is complete, React Router will call the `buildEnd` hook, passing a `buildManifest` object. This is useful if you need to inspect the build manifest to determine how to route requests to the correct server bundle.
47
48```ts filename=react-router.config.ts lines=[5-7]
49import type { Config } from "@react-router/dev/config";
50
51export default {
52 // ...
53 buildEnd: async ({ buildManifest }) => {
54 // ...
55 },
56} satisfies Config;
57```
58
59When using server bundles, the build manifest contains the following properties:
60
61- `serverBundles` — An object that maps bundle IDs to the bundle's `id` and `file`
62- `routeIdToServerBundleId` — An object that maps route IDs to their server bundle ID
63- `routes` — A route manifest that maps route IDs to route metadata. This can be used to drive a custom routing layer in front of your React Router request handlers
