Customizable trailing slash behaviour

[tombuntus]

Describe the bug

Currently the router always adds a trailing slash to the basepath.

So if you are at mysite.com/page/one with basepath: '/page/one' and you try to use navigate to update the search params then you end up at mysite.com/page/one/?param=value

Same thing applies if you have no basepath set, so mysite.com would become mysite.com/?param=value

Your Example Website or App

Steps to Reproduce the Bug or Issue

In the example above, just load the page (in a new tab so you can see the query string) and take a look at the address bar.

Expected behavior

I'd expect to be able to specify not add the slash, so that you would end up at mysite.com/page/one?param=value

can you update your project and retry if the issue has been solved please?

[tannerlinsley]

At the very least, trailing slashes are not the default any more, so there's that. However, there still isn't an option to force trailing slashes. I'm content with that for now since they are mostly (in my opinion) useless. I'm sure someone will eventually ask for that option enough that I'll add it, but not until then.

Hey @tannerlinsley!

We'd love to see this as an option, we have a huge site (100's Millions of pages) which all have a trailing slash on them, as this was previously enforced. We'd like to move to tanstack router, however we dont want to go through the whole SEO process of needing to redirect all the old pages moping up all the issues that causes along the way. Would it be possible to make this a controllable option?
