Although it's usually simpler to +leave that to a reverse proxy (like nginx or Varnish), this package is useful +when that's undesirable. + + +## Usage + +Call `GzipHandler` with any handler (an object which implements the +`http.Handler` interface), and it'll return a new handler which gzips the +response. For example: + +```go +package main + +import ( + "io" + "net/http" + "github.com/NYTimes/gziphandler" +) + +func main() { + withoutGz := http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) { + w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "text/plain") + io.WriteString(w, "Hello, World") + }) + + withGz := gziphandler.GzipHandler(withoutGz) + + http.Handle("/", withGz) + http.ListenAndServe("0.0.0.0:8000", nil) +} +``` + + +## Documentation + +The docs can be found at [godoc.org] [docs], as usual. + + +## License + +[Apache 2.0] [license]. + + + + +[docs]: https://godoc.org/github.com/nytimes/gziphandler +[license]: https://github.com/nytimes/gziphandler/blob/master/LICENSE.md |
