Gzip Compression #1556
-
|
In the docs it states the compression is true by default, does this mean that any body sent is automatically compressed with gzip? I ask, because nginx isn't getting a gzip encoding header with 2.6.7, just want to verify before I go bug hunting. Thanks! |

I verified that the request is going out gzipped by dumping the request to the console so I'm missing something obvious, disregard, doesn't look like a node-fetch issue at all. |

when we say it supports compression then it means that we will send out a default request header it dose not mean that we will compress the request body that are being sent to a server |

Oh, I see. I was dumping the response object, not the body. So I'll have to gzip the body. Thanks :) |

Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, brand the server that accepts the request then have the possibility to respond back with a compressed response. We will then decompress the response and give you the uncompressed response back.it dose not mean that we will compress the request body that are being sent to a server
