How split routes by controllers in Nestjs router

Question

I am using the library nest-router and I want to split router structure by many files attached to controllers or just file stored near controller. In Angular i can use loadChildren in Router definition and make lazy loading module. How i can create router structure like Angular style? Or just separate router file by child routes?

const routes: Routes = [
    {
      path: '/ninja',
      module: NinjaModule,
      childrens: NinjaRouterModule // <- like here
    },
  ];

in NinjaRouterModule

const routes: Routes = [
        {
          path: '/cats',
          module: CatsModule,
        },
        {
          path: '/dogs',
          module: DogsModule,
          childrens: DogsRouterModule // <-like here
        }
  ];

NestJS 8x

import { Module } from '@nestjs/common'
import { RouterModule } from '@nestjs/core'

@Module({
  imports: [RouterModule.register([{
    path: 'admin',
    module: AdminModule,
    children: [
      {
        path: 'dashboard',
        module: DashboardpModule
      },
      {
        path: 'metrics',
        module: MetricsModule
      }
    ]
  }])]
})

export default class AppModule {
}

You need to import all your children routes in main module(AppModule) along with RouterModule.register

@Module({
  imports: [
    NinjaRouterModule,
    CatsModule,
    DogsModule,
    DogsRouterModule,
    RouterModule.register(routes),
  ],
