- = cowboy_compress_h(3)
- == Name
- cowboy_compress_h - Compress stream handler
- == Description
- The module `cowboy_compress_h` compresses response bodies
- automatically when the client supports it. It will not
- try to compress responses that already have a content
- encoding.
- Normal responses will only be compressed when their
- size is lower than the configured threshold. Streamed
- responses are always compressed, including when the
- sendfile command is used. Because the file must be
- read in memory to be compressed, this module is *not*
- suitable for automatically compressing large files.
- == Options
- [source,erlang]
- ----
- opts() :: #{
- compress_buffering => boolean(),
- compress_threshold => non_neg_integer()
- }
- ----
- Configuration for the default stream handler.
- The default value is given next to the option name:
- compress_buffering (false)::
- Whether the output will be buffered. By default no
- buffering is done to provide maximum compatibility
- at the cost of a lower compression rate.
- compress_threshold (300)::
- How large the response body must be to be compressed
- when the response isn't streamed.
- == Events
- The compress stream handler does not produce any event.
- == Changelog
- * *2.6*: The options `compress_buffering` and
- `compress_threshold` were added.
- * *2.0*: Module introduced.
