Backbone.js: trailing slash in the end of url route

Question

I have url routes in my app Router.js:

'items': 'items',
'items/drafts': 'itemsDrafts',
'items/drafts/new': 'itemsDraftsNew',
...

But in browser when I define items/drafts/new/ it gives me 404 error :(

Is there a way to make this urls the same without copy-pasting all routes and adding trailing to them like:

'items': 'items',
'items/drafts': 'itemsDrafts',
'items/drafts/new': 'itemsDraftsNew',
'items/': 'items',
'items/drafts/': 'itemsDrafts',
'items/drafts/new/': 'itemsDraftsNew',
...

?

Thanks!

my solution: 'url(/)': 'urlFunc'

() - means optional (also take a look here - https://stackoverflow.com/a/14329976/2117550)

Thanks for taking the time to provide the answer of your own question, this is very considerate of the fellow developers of the internet. – Emile Bergeron Apr 27 '15 at 17:28
Anyone knows if there's a way to make it default? Instead of adding (/) to every possible route – Silver Ringvee Aug 26 '16 at 11:31

url = url + '(/)'; // backbonejs optional handling of trailing slash – Oleksii Kyslytsyn May 18 '18 at 13:56
