Compress Responses before Sending them to the Client
|

{: .subtitle }
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Compress middleware uses gzip compression.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Examples
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="Docker"
|
|
# Enable gzip compression
|
|
labels:
|
|
- "traefik.http.middlewares.test-compress.compress=true"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="Kubernetes"
|
|
# Enable gzip compression
|
|
apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
|
|
kind: Middleware
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: test-compress
|
|
spec:
|
|
compress: {}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="Consul Catalog"
|
|
# Enable gzip compression
|
|
- "traefik.http.middlewares.test-compress.compress=true"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json tab="Marathon"
|
|
"labels": {
|
|
"traefik.http.middlewares.test-compress.compress": "true"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="Rancher"
|
|
# Enable gzip compression
|
|
labels:
|
|
- "traefik.http.middlewares.test-compress.compress=true"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
|
|
# Enable gzip compression
|
|
http:
|
|
middlewares:
|
|
test-compress:
|
|
compress: {}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```toml tab="File (TOML)"
|

# Enable gzip compression
|

|
|
[http.middlewares.test-compress.compress]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
!!! info
|
|
|
|
Responses are compressed when the following criteria are all met:
|
|
|
|
* The response body is larger than the configured minimum amount of bytes (default is `1024`).
|
|
* The `Accept-Encoding` request header contains `gzip`.
|
|
* The response is not already compressed, i.e. the `Content-Encoding` response header is not already set.
|
|
|
|
If the `Content-Type` header is not defined, or empty, the compress middleware will automatically [detect](https://mimesniff.spec.whatwg.org/) a content type.
|
|
It will also set the `Content-Type` header according to the detected MIME type.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Options
|
|
|
|
### `excludedContentTypes`
|
|
|
|
`excludedContentTypes` specifies a list of content types to compare the `Content-Type` header of the incoming requests and responses before compressing.
|
|
|
|
The responses with content types defined in `excludedContentTypes` are not compressed.
|
|
|
|
Content types are compared in a case-insensitive, whitespace-ignored manner.
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="Docker"
|
|
labels:
|
|
- "traefik.http.middlewares.test-compress.compress.excludedcontenttypes=text/event-stream"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="Kubernetes"
|
|
apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
|
|
kind: Middleware
|
|
metadata:
|
|
name: test-compress
|
|
spec:
|
|
compress:
|
|
excludedContentTypes:
|
|
- text/event-stream
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="Consul Catalog"
|
|
- "traefik.http.middlewares.test-compress.compress.excludedcontenttypes=text/event-stream"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json tab="Marathon"
|
|
"labels": {
|
|
"traefik.http.middlewares.test-compress.compress.excludedcontenttypes": "text/event-stream"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="Rancher"
|
|

|
|
- "traefik.http.middlewares.test-compress.compress.excludedcontenttypes=text/event-stream"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
|
|
http:
|
|
middlewares:

|
test-compress:
|
|
compress:
|
|
excludedContentTypes:
|
|
- text/event-stream
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```toml tab="File (TOML)"
|
|
[http.middlewares]
|
|
[http.middlewares.test-compress.compress]
|
|
excludedContentTypes = ["text/event-stream"]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `minResponseBodyBytes`
|
|
|
|
`minResponseBodyBytes` specifies the minimum amount of bytes a response body must have to be compressed.
|
|
|
|
The default value is `1024`, which should be a reasonable value for most cases.
|
|
|
|
Responses smaller than the specified values will not be compressed.
