The need has been spotted in issue https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/3687.
Using "NYTimes/gziphandler", the http api responses can now be compressed if required.
The Go API requires compressed response if possible and handle the compressed response.
We here change only the http api (not the UI for instance).
Note that the vendor.json is already correct but the actual files were never checked in so report as missing:
```
$ govendor list | grep testify
v github.com/stretchr/testify/assert
m github.com/stretchr/testify/require
```
See https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/3977
While trying to improve furthermore #3948 (This pull request is still valid since we are not using Compression to compute the result anyway).
I saw a strange behaviour of dns library.
Basically, msg.Len() and len(msg.Pack()) disagree on Message len.
Thus, calculation of DNS response is false consul relies on msg.Len() instead of the result of Pack()
This is linked to miekg/dns#453 and a fix has been provided with miekg/dns#454
Would it be possible to upgrade miekg/dns to a more recent function ?
Consul might for instance upgrade to a post 1.0 release such as https://github.com/miekg/dns/releases/tag/v1.0.4
Update posener/complete to revision=v1.1.
Leave only once occurrence of posener/complete in vendor, there was an occurrence for
each package individualy.
The formatting of vendor/vendor.json has changed after using
the command "govendor fetch github.com/posener/complete@=v1.1"
* Refactors the HTTP listen path to create servers in the same spot.
* Adds HTTP/2 support to Consul's HTTPS server.
* Vendors Go HTTP/2 library and associated deps.
This patch backports a fix which will show the correct usage screen for
command line flags.
This is considered a temporary fix until the code has been refactored.
Newer versions of the cli library require that the flag set is populated
when Help() is called or that it is populated within Help() itself.
Fixes#3536
This patch updates the go-discover library to use the new config parser
which uses a different encoding scheme for the go-discover config DSL.
Values are no longer URL encoded but taken literally unless they contain
spaces, backslashes or double quotes. To support keys or values with
these special characters the string needs to be double quoted and usual
escaping rules apply.
Fixes#3417
