## Installation

`$ npm install express-route-fs --save`

## Features

- Automatically load router files from a specifiable directory
- Easily organize and find your routers by using subdirectories for them
- Lightweight API

## Usage

__Syntax:__ `routeFs(app[, options])`

1. Define your routes in a directory

- It is encouraged to use separate files for each page in order to easily debug routing issues.
- Subdirectories can be used
- An `index.js` file of a directory sets the routing base to the directory's path.

2. Initialize the routers automatically

```js
var express = require('express');
var routeFs = require('express-route-fs');

var app = express();
routeFs(app, { routerDir: __dirname + '/routes' });
```

## Options

| Option | Description | Default |
|-------------|----------------------------------------|-----------|
| `routerDir` | Load router files from this directory. | ./routes/ |
