NAME

MojoX::Encode::Gzip - Gzip a Mojo::Message::Response

VERSION

version 1.13

SYNOPSIS

use MojoX:Encode::Gzip;

# Simple
MojoX::Encode::Gzip->new->maybe_gzip($tx);

# With options
my $gzip = MojoX::Encode::Gzip->new(
    min_bytes => 600,
    max_bytes => 600000,
);
$success = $gzip->maybe_gzip($tx);

DESCRIPTION

Gzip compress a Mojo::Message::Response if client supports it.

ATTRIBUTES

min_bytes

The minumum number of bytes in the body before we would try to gzip it. Trying to gzip really small messages can take extra CPU power on the server and client without saving any times. Defaults to 500.

max_bytes

The maximum number of bytes in the body before we give up on trying gzip it. Gzipping very large messages can delay the response and possibly exhaust system resources. Defaults to 500000.

METHODS

maybe_gzip

my $success = $gzip->maybe_gzip($tx);

Given a Mojo::Transaction object, possibly gzips transforms the response by gzipping it. Returns true if we gzip it, and undef otherwise. The behavior is modified by the min_bytes and max_bytes attributes.

Currently we only only try to gzip Content-types that start with "text/", or end in "xml" or "javascript", along with "application/json". This may be configurable in the future.

SUPPORT
