How does Jooby handle gzip encoding for requests and responses?

[nonetallt]

From the documentation, I noticed that ServerOptions has a method called setCompressionLevel.

The documentation from the javadoc for the method is as such:

Set compression level to use while producing gzip responses. Gzip is off by default (compression level is null).

This raises some questions regarding the gzip support:

1) When compression level has a non-null value, are all responses encoded or only ones for requests that have an accept-encoding: gzip header?

2) Can Jooby automatically decode incoming requests with a content-encoding: gzip header? If not, what is the recommended way of achieving this? My current solution is to read from input stream produced by GZIPInputStream(context.body().stream())) but I have a suspicion that the performance of this approach isn't ideal.

PS. I'm using netty as the underlying server in case that's relevant.

Hi

1. Only the one that request gzip: accept-encoding: gzip
2. there is nothing built in for gzip requests

Thank you for the clarification.
