How would I got about splitting up my endpoints into separate files?
Ideally I want to have this syntax

routing {
route("/route", endpoints())
}

or any other way to move all of the posts, deletes etc. out of this file and into something else.

Just extract different parts of routing to separate extension functions and call required parts on app initialization

I've tried this but I get null as a return to every request.

Nothing magic in this code, it's just calling extension functions of DSL on some context, are you sure that your extension functions calls on the same route?
Maybe you have some code snippet

[Tsvetozar Bonev]

fun Route.catalogueEndpoints(eventBus: EventBus) {
		get("{id}") {
			val response = eventBus.send(
				GetCatalogueByIdQuery(
					catalogueId = call.getParameter("id")
				)
			)

			call.respondToCommand(response)
		}
}

and

routing {
		route("/catalogues") {
			catalogueEndpoints(eventBus)
		}
	}

And what is null in this snippet?

[Tsvetozar Bonev]

call.responToCommand(response) is a function I've implemented that should return a status and a message to the ApplicationCall but instead it doesn't seem to get through

I'm searching for a way to group all of the endpoints of a route together and have them separate from the file in which the route is defined

[Tsvetozar Bonev]

but so far I've found no solution

[Tsvetozar Bonev]

Figured it out, finally! 😄

[Tsvetozar Bonev]

The snippet is correct, my endpoint path was different from the tests so it failed

fwiw, i have a working example showing how to do this with Guice here: https://bitbucket.org/marshallpierce/ktor-demo/src/master/
