Deduplicate multiple consecutive slashes in a current URL without reloading a page

## Installation

[Use](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/install) [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/what-is-npm).

```

npm install slash-deduplication

```

## Usage

Once the HTML page loads [the script](./index.js) and if the current `location.pathname` includes multiple consecutive `/`, it [replaces](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History_API#Adding_and_modifying_history_entries) the current URL with a duplicate-`/`-free one.

```javascript

(async () => {

  location.href; //=> 'https://example.org/a//b/c//d////'

  await import('slash-deduplication');

  location.href; //=> 'https://example.org/a/b/c/d/'

})();

```

It only modifies the path of URL. Original fragment identifier and parameters are preserved.

```javascript

(async () => {

  location.href; //=> 'https://example.org////////page#a//b&c=d//e'

  await import('slash-deduplication');

  location.href; //=> 'https://example.org/page#a//b&c=d//e'

})();

```

This library is suitable for static site hosting service where server-side redirection is not user-unconfigurable, for example [GitHub Pages](https://pages.github.com/).
