It looks like maintainers aren't very active on the repo and https://github.com/nytimes/gziphandler/pull/107 has come to a standstill. I don't want to wait forever for this to go in. Let's use a replace directive to point to the fork. When the PR gets merged, we can just bump the dependency and remove the replace directive. Re: the PR, copying the text from the PR description This gives 40-50% improvements in CPU with very minor increase in memory, just as a drop-in replacement. I think that is a very reasonable tradeoff. The library is mature and safe to be used in production. ``` name old time/op new time/op delta GzipHandler_S2k-8 74.9µs ± 2% 34.4µs ± 2% -54.07% (p=0.000 n=10+9) GzipHandler_S20k-8 379µs ± 1% 226µs ± 3% -40.42% (p=0.000 n=9+10) GzipHandler_S100k-8 1.95ms ± 2% 1.15ms ± 1% -41.27% (p=0.000 n=9+9) GzipHandler_P2k-8 24.3µs ±25% 10.7µs ±25% -55.80% (p=0.000 n=10+10) GzipHandler_P20k-8 132µs ± 2% 75µs ± 1% -42.95% (p=0.000 n=9+10) GzipHandler_P100k-8 658µs ± 2% 371µs ± 3% -43.68% (p=0.000 n=9+10) name old alloc/op new alloc/op delta GzipHandler_S2k-8 7.71kB ± 5% 9.13kB ± 7% +18.33% (p=0.000 n=10+10) GzipHandler_S20k-8 65.1kB ± 3% 70.3kB ± 3% +8.05% (p=0.000 n=10+10) GzipHandler_S100k-8 348kB ± 4% 382kB ± 2% +9.85% (p=0.000 n=10+10) GzipHandler_P2k-8 7.60kB ± 1% 7.93kB ± 2% +4.33% (p=0.000 n=10+10) GzipHandler_P20k-8 64.4kB ± 1% 66.3kB ± 2% +2.92% (p=0.000 n=10+10) GzipHandler_P100k-8 304kB ± 1% 309kB ± 1% +1.67% (p=0.000 n=10+9) name old allocs/op new allocs/op delta GzipHandler_S2k-8 21.0 ± 0% 21.0 ± 0% ~ (all equal) GzipHandler_S20k-8 24.0 ± 0% 24.0 ± 0% ~ (all equal) GzipHandler_S100k-8 27.0 ± 0% 27.0 ± 0% ~ (all equal) GzipHandler_P2k-8 21.0 ± 0% 21.0 ± 0% ~ (all equal) GzipHandler_P20k-8 24.0 ± 0% 24.0 ± 0% ~ (all equal) GzipHandler_P100k-8 26.0 ± 0% 26.0 ± 0% ~ (all equal) ``` https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/MM-28491
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.
Install
go get -u github.com/NYTimes/gziphandler
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)
}
