+# Slash handler
+
+The router works with precise matches. If a route is defined without a trailing slash, for example, it won't match a request with a slash.
+
+```clj
+(require '[reitit.ring :as ring])
+
+(def app
+  (ring/ring-handler
+    (ring/router
+      ["/ping" (constantly {:status 200, :body ""})])))
+
+(app {:uri "/ping/"})
+; nil
+```
+
+Sometimes it is desirable that paths with and without a trailing slash are recognized as the same.
+
+Setting the `redirect-trailing-slash-handler` as a second argument to `ring-handler`:
+
+```clj
+(def app
+  (ring/ring-handler
+    (ring/router
+      [["/ping" (constantly {:status 200, :body ""})]
+       ["/pong/" (constantly {:status 200, :body ""})]])
+    (ring/redirect-trailing-slash-handler)))
+
+(app {:uri "/ping/"})
+; {:status 308, :headers {"Location" "/ping"}, :body ""}
+(app {:uri "/pong"})
+; {:status 308, :headers {"Location" "/pong/"}, :body ""}
+```
+
+`redirect-trailing-slash-handler` accepts an optional `:method` parameter that allows configuring how (whether) to handle missing/extra slashes. The default is to handle both.
+
+```clj
+(def app
+  (ring/ring-handler
+    (ring/router
+      [["/ping" (constantly {:status 200, :body ""})]
+       ["/pong/" (constantly {:status 200, :body ""})]])
+    ; only handle extra trailing slash
+    (ring/redirect-trailing-slash-handler {:method :strip})))
+
+(app {:uri "/ping/"})
+; {:status 308, :headers {"Location" "/ping"}, :body ""}
+(app {:uri "/pong"})
+; nil
+```
+```clj
+(def app
+  (ring/ring-handler
+    (ring/router
+      [["/ping" (constantly {:status 200, :body ""})]
+       ["/pong/" (constantly {:status 200, :body ""})]])
+    ; only handle missing trailing slash
+    (ring/redirect-trailing-slash-handler {:method :add})))
+
+(app {:uri "/ping/"})
+; nil
+(app {:uri "/pong"})
+; {:status 308, :headers {"Location" "/pong/"}, :body ""}
+```
