Sub-Folder style routing in Express

express, node.js

Solution

Use a regular expression.

app.get(/^\/((?:[^\/]+\/?)+)\//, function(req, res) {
  res.send(req.params[0].split('/'));
});

app.listen(8080);

Run it and then

$ curl localhost:8080/foo/bar/baz/
["foo","bar","baz"]

Problem

I want to parse simple routes like these: ``` http://example.com/foo/bar/baz/ ``` where there is no theoretical limitation to the number of them. And it would be nice to have an array `['foo','bar','baz']` from it. How to do it with Express routing?
