Prevent trailing slashes in URLs with Middleman and Nginx

no-trailing-slashes-nginx-and-middleman.md

So you want to have pretty URLs with no trailing slash or .html like:

http://mysite.com/blog/my-new-kitten

not like:

http://mysite.com/blog/my-new-kitten/

or

http://mysite.com/blog/my-new-kitten.html

In your Middleman config.rb file:

activate :directory_indexes
set :trailing_slash, false

In your Nginx config file:

server {
    ...

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/index.html =404;
        rewrite ^(/.+)/$ $1 permanent;
    }
    
    ...
}

What about Apache?
