What is the best way to make trailing slashes not matter in the latest version of Routes (1.10)? I currently am using the clearly non-DRY:
map.connect('/logs/', controller='logs', action='logs')
map.connect('/logs', controller='logs', action='logs')
I think that turning minimization on would do the trick, but am under the impression that it was disabled in the newer versions of Routes for a reason. Unfortunately documentation doesn't seem to have caught up with Routes development, so I can't find any good resources to go to. Any ideas?

Personally I don't like the trailing slash, because if you have a uri like:
You should be able to get the same data in xml format by going to:
Marius Gedminas : Easily guessable URLs are good, so people ought to be allowed to go to /people and /people/ and see the same thing. Canonical URLs are also good, so one of those should redirect to the other.From jonnii -
http://www.siafoo.net/snippet/275 has a basic piece of middleware which removes a trailing slash from requests. Clever idea, and I understood the concept of middleware in WSGI applications much better after I realised what this does.

The following snippet added as the very last route worked for me:
map.redirect('/*(url)/', '/{url}', _redirect_code='301 Moved Permanently')Marius Gedminas : I'm 90% sure I found it somewhere on the net, but I cannot provide a proper attribution at the moment.Nick Retallack : This works and is a lot simpler than all the other solutions. You deserve upvotes, good sir.John : This worked great! Thanks!From Marius Gedminas
