Alternative capitalization for URLs #208

Open nezbite opened 4 years ago

nezbite commented 4 years ago

When accessing a site with wrong capitalization, e.g. example.com/posts instead of example.com/Posts an "Action is missing" error is shown. Instead, we should check if an Action exists with another way of capitalization before showing an error. Examples: /posts -> /Posts /POSTS -> /Posts /pOSTS -> /Posts etc.

Redirecting based on some fuzzy matching algorithm should be avoided IMHO.

In dev mode, the error page should show "similar" named actions though.

But the path section of the URL is supposed to be case-sensitive: check section 6.2.2.1 of https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986

Hence the current behavior is correct.
