Sample

Create this

var express = require('express'),
	treeRouter = require('express-treerouter')(express),
	app = express();

app.use(treeRouter({
	'' : { get: controller },
	'products': { get: controller, post: controller, content: {
		':product_id': { get: controller, put: controller, del: controller, content: {
			'tags': { get: controller, post: controller, content: { 
				':tag_id': { get: controller, put: controller, del: controller }
			}},
			'comments': { get: controller, post: controller, content: {
				':comment_id': { get: controller, put: controller, del: controller }
			}},
			'owners': { get: controller, post: controller, content: {
				':owner_id': { get: controller, put: controller, del: controller }
			}}
		}}
	}},
	'*' : { all: error404Controller }
}));

From this

var express = require('express'),
	app = express();

app.get('/', controller);

app.get('/products', controller);
app.post('/products', controller);
app.get('/products/:product_id', controller);
app.put('/products/:product_id', controller);
app.del('/products/:product_id', controller);

app.get('/products/:product_id/tags', controller);
app.post('/products/:product_id/tags', controller);
app.get('/products/:product_id/tags/:tag_id', controller);
app.put('/products/:product_id/tags/:tag_id', controller);
app.del('/products/:product_id/tags/:tag_id', controller);

app.get('/products/:product_id/comments', controller);
app.post('/products/:product_id/comments', controller);
app.get('/products/:product_id/comments/:comment_id', controller);
app.put('/products/:product_id/comments/:comment_id', controller);
app.del('/products/:product_id/comments/:comment_id', controller);

app.get('/products/:product_id/owners', controller);
app.post('/products/:product_id/owners', controller);
app.get('/products/:product_id/owners/:owner_id', controller);
app.put('/products/:product_id/owners/:owner_id', controller);
app.del('/products/:product_id/owners/:owner_id', controller);

app.all('*', error404Controller);
