# Nested Routes
|
|
|
|
When developing bigger applications we often want to nest routes within each
|
|
other. As an example, we might want to organize a settings menu using this
|
|
pattern:
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
└ Settings
|
|
├ General Settings (displayed when opening the settings)
|
|
├ Change Password
|
|
└ Privacy Settings
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
We might want to map this structure to these paths and components:
|
|
|
|
```plain
|
|
/settings -> Settings { GeneralSettings }
|
|
/settings/password -> Settings { PWSettings }
|
|
/settings/privacy -> Settings { PrivacySettings }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Nested routes allow us to do this without repeating /settings in every route.
|
|
|
|
## Nesting
|
|
|
|
To nest routes, we use the `#[nest("path")]` and `#[end_nest]` attributes.
|
|
|
|
The path in nest must not:
|
|
|
|
1. Contain a [Catch All Segment](index.md#catch-all-segments)
|
|
2. Contain a [Query Segment](index.md#query-segments)
|
|
|
|
If you define a dynamic segment in a nest, it will be available to all child routes and layouts.
|
|
|
|
To finish a nest, we use the `#[end_nest]` attribute or the end of the enum.
|
|
|
|
```rust, no_run
|
|
{{#include ../../../examples/nest.rs:route}}
|
|
```
