How to set default route parameter value in react router?

I want to prevent additional redirect. Is there a way to set default parameter value in router config?

export const router = createBrowserRouter([
  {
    path: '/admin',
    element: <App/>,
    errorElement: <PageError/>,
    children: [
      {
        index: true,
        path: 'schedule/:date?',
        element: <React.Suspense fallback={<Loading />}>
          <PageCalendar />
        </React.Suspense>,
      },

Basically I want "/admin/schedule/2023-05-11" (current date) page to open if user tries to open "/admin" or "/admin/schedule" page.

I don't believe there's a way to accomplish this without a redirect somewhere to get the UI synchronized with the correct URL path in the browser.

You can include a "catch-all" route that injects the current date and redirects to the default route.

Example:

import { Navigate, generatePath } from 'react-router-dom';

const ScheduleRedirect = () => {
  const date = /* compute formatted date, e.g. "2023-05-11" */
  return (
    <Navigate
      to={generatePath("/admin/schedule/:date", { date })}
      replace
    />
  );
};

export const router = createBrowserRouter([
  {
    path: '/admin',
    element: <App/>,
    errorElement: <PageError/>,
    children: [
      {
        path: 'schedule/:date',
        element: (
          <React.Suspense fallback={<Loading />}>
            <PageCalendar />
          </React.Suspense>
        ),
      },
    ],
  },
  {
    path: "*",
    element: <ScheduleRedirect />,
  },
]);
