Examples

Import the middleware package that is part of the Fiber web framework

import (
  "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
  "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2/middleware/compress"
)

After you initiate your Fiber app, you can use the following possibilities:

// Default middleware config
app.Use(compress.New())

// Provide a custom compression level
app.Use(compress.New(compress.Config{
    Level: compress.LevelBestSpeed, // 1
}))

// Skip middleware for specific routes
app.Use(compress.New(compress.Config{
  Next:  func(c *fiber.Ctx) bool {
    return c.Path() == "/dont_compress"
  },
  Level: compress.LevelBestSpeed, // 1
}))

Config

// Config defines the config for middleware.
type Config struct {
	// Next defines a function to skip this middleware when returned true.
	//
	// Optional. Default: nil
	Next func(c *fiber.Ctx) bool

	// CompressLevel determines the compression algoritm
	//
	// Optional. Default: LevelDefault
	// LevelDisabled:         -1
	// LevelDefault:          0
	// LevelBestSpeed:        1
	// LevelBestCompression:  2
	Level int
}

Default Config

var ConfigDefault = Config{
	Next:  nil,
	Level: LevelDefault,
}

Constants

// Compression levels
const (
	LevelDisabled        = -1
	LevelDefault         = 0
	LevelBestSpeed       = 1
	LevelBestCompression = 2
)
