rpcompress

rpcompress contains http middleware for clients and servers sending gzip-compressed responses.

Go:

See ./compressmw for the middleware. See the tests for many examples of the middleware in use.

Clients:

  • Decompression is automatically implemented by the standard http.Transport when the Accept-Encoding header is set to gzip.
  • Wrap your http client's transport with compressmw.ClientGzipResponse to compress outgoing responses:
import (
    "net/http"
    "github.com/runpod/rpcompress/compressmw"
)
var client = &http.Client{Transport: compressmw.ClientGzipBody(http.DefaultTransport)}

func doMyRequest() {
    body := strings.NewReader("some request body")
    req, _ := http.NewRequest("GET", "http://example.com", body) // will be automatically compressed by the transport
    resp, err := client.Do(req)
    if err != nil {
        // handle error
    }
    if resp.StatusCode != http.StatusOK {
        // handle error
    }
    b, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body) // will be automatically decompressed   
}

Servers:

  • Decompress incoming requests with compressmw.ServerAcceptGzip:
  • Compress outgoing responses that set the Accept-Encoding header to gzip with compressmw.GzipResponseBody:
import (
    "net/http"
    "github.com/runpod/rpcompress/compressmw"
)




func main() {
    var echo http.HandlerFunc = func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
        // echo request body
        io.Copy(w, r.Body)
    }
    handler = compressmw.ServerAcceptGzip(handler)
    handler = compressmw.GzipResponseBody(handler)
    http.ListenAndServe(":8080", handler)
}
