UCE Docs / route_path_sanitize

Normalizes and validates a route path for file-backed routing.

Rules:

• leading and trailing / are removed

• an empty path becomes default_path

• every path segment must be non-empty

• . and .. segments are rejected

• only ASCII letters, digits, _, and - are accepted inside a segment

• unsafe input returns an empty string

Use this instead of manually checking app routes before composing file paths.

request_query_path(), request_query_route(), and the runtime-populated ROUTE_PATH params already use this sanitizer.
