Ktor: define route for URL with and without tailing slash

I am trying to learn Ktor, when responding to a GET request, I found that the trailing slash is treated as two routes, for example:

/greet?name=john
/greet/?name=john

Is it possible to define one route for the above two URLs, which is to handle trailing slash automatically?

Be careful when using install(IgnoreTrailingSlash) with static content, as omitting the trailing slash will result in a base url without the final path segment.

For example, let's say I have something like this in my routing code...

staticResources("/static", "static")
get("/myendpoint")

And an html file, which imports some javascript...

<script type="module" src="static/index.js"></script>

The import will fail with the trailing slash.

In your Application.module() or Application.configureRouting() add this:

install(IgnoreTrailingSlash)
