# normalize-path [](https://www.npmjs.com/package/normalize-path) [](https://npmjs.org/package/normalize-path) [](https://npmjs.org/package/normalize-path) [](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/normalize-path)
> Normalize slashes in a file path to be posix/unix-like forward slashes. Also condenses repeat slashes to a single slash and removes and trailing slashes, unless disabled.
Please consider following this project's author, [Jon Schlinkert](https://github.com/jonschlinkert), and consider starring the project to show your :heart: and support.
## Install
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):
```sh
$ npm install --save normalize-path
```
## Usage
```js
const normalize = require('normalize-path');
console.log(normalize('\\foo\\bar\\baz\\'));
//=> '/foo/bar/baz'
```
**win32 namespaces**
```js
console.log(normalize('\\\\?\\UNC\\Server01\\user\\docs\\Letter.txt'));
//=> '//?/UNC/Server01/user/docs/Letter.txt'
console.log(normalize('\\\\.\\CdRomX'));
//=> '//./CdRomX'
```
**Consecutive slashes**
Condenses multiple consecutive forward slashes (except for leading slashes in win32 namespaces) to a single slash.
```js
console.log(normalize('.//foo//bar///////baz/'));
//=> './foo/bar/baz'
```
### Trailing slashes
By default trailing slashes are removed. Pass `false` as the last argument to disable this behavior and _**keep** trailing slashes_:
```js
console.log(normalize('foo\\bar\\baz\\', false)); //=> 'foo/bar/baz/'
console.log(normalize('./foo/bar/baz/', false)); //=> './foo/bar/baz/'
```
## Release history
### v3.0
No breaking changes in this release.
* a check was added to ensure that [win32 namespaces](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx#namespaces) are handled properly by win32 `path.parse()` after a path has been normalized by this library.
* a minor optimization was made to simplify how the trailing separator was handled
