Seth Hoenig 435c0d9fc8 deps: Switch to Go modules for dependency management This PR switches the Nomad repository from using govendor to Go modules for managing dependencies. Aspects of the Nomad workflow remain pretty much the same. The usual Makefile targets should continue to work as they always did. The API submodule simply defers to the parent Nomad version on the repository, keeping the semantics of API versioning that currently exists.		2020-06-02 14:30:36 -05:00

Gzip Handler

This is a tiny Go package which wraps HTTP handlers to transparently gzip the response body, for clients which support it. 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:

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)
}
