node.js - Is it possible to group controllers in sails using subfolders?

Question

I'm planning to organize my controllers in sails using subfolder but I'm not sure how to do it. When I tried using like admin/PageController.js and connect it with the route I keep getting a 404 error.

You can definitely do this. The trick is, the controller identity is its path, in your case admin/PageController. So a custom route in config/routes.js would be something like:

'GET /admin/page/foo': 'admin/PageController.foo'

The great thing is, automatic actions still work, so if you have an index action in the controller then browsing to /admin/page will automatically run it.

You can also create controllers like this with sails generate controller admin/page.
