```python
                from fastapi import FastAPI

                app = FastAPI(redirect_slashes=True)  # the default

                @app.get("/items/")
                async def read_items():
                    return [{"item_id": "Foo"}]
                ```

                With this app, if a client goes to `/items` (without a trailing slash),

    # authenticate user
    return User()


@app.get("/items/")
def read_items(user: User = Depends(get_current_user)):
    ...


@app.post("/items/")
def create_item(*, user: User = Depends(get_current_user), item: Item):
    ...


@app.get("/items/{item_id}")
def read_item(*, user: User = Depends(get_current_user), item_id: int):
    ...
