Brotli: fix interaction with other filters. Previously, Brotli filter was installed using HTTP_AUX_FILTER_MODULES, which meant that it was executed before most of the core HTTP filters, breaking them in the process (because they couldn't process compressed responses). Reported by George Liu (eva2000) on GitHub (issue #8). Signed-off-by: Piotr Sikora <piotrsikora@google.com>
Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed with deflate but offers more dense compression.
ngx_brotli is a set of two nginx modules:
Both Brotli library and nginx module are under active development.
$ cd nginx-1.x.x $ ./configure --add-module=/path/to/ngx_brotli $ make && make install
ngx_brotli filter module depends on libbrotli, which must be installed on the target system for it to work.
Alternatively, ngx_brotli static module can be compiled into nginx by itself with NGX_BROTLI_STATIC_MODULE_ONLY=1
defined in the environment:
$ cd nginx-1.x.x $ export NGX_BROTLI_STATIC_MODULE_ONLY=1 $ ./configure --add-module=/path/to/ngx_brotli $ make && make install
brotli_static
brotli_static on|off|always
off
http
, server
, location
Enables or disables checking of the existence of pre-compressed files with.br
extension. With the always
value, pre-compressed file is used in all cases, without checking if the client supports it.
brotli
brotli on|off
off
http
, server
, location
, if
Enables or disables on-the-fly compression of responses.
brotli_types
brotli_types <mime_type> [..]
text/html
http
, server
, location
Enables on-the-fly compression of responses for the specified MIME types in addition to text/html
. The special value *
matches any MIME type. Responses with the text/html
MIME type are always compressed.
brotli_buffers
brotli_buffers <number> <size>
32 4k|16 8k
http
, server
, location
Sets the number
and size
of buffers used to compress a response. By default, the buffer size is equal to one memory page. This is either 4k
or 8k
, depending on a platform.
brotli_comp_level
brotli_comp_level <level>
6
http
, server
, location
Sets Brotli quality (compression) level
. Acceptable values are in the range from 0
to 11
.
brotli_window
brotli_window <size>
512k
http
, server
, location
Sets Brotli window size
. Acceptable values are 1k
, 2k
, 4k
, 8k
, 16k
, 32k
, 64k
, 128k
, 256k
, 512k
, 1m
, 2m
, 4m
, 8m
and 16m
.
brotli_min_length
brotli_min_length <length>
20
http
, server
, location
Sets the minimum length
of a response that will be compressed. The length is determined only from the Content-Length
response header field.
$brotli_ratio
Achieved compression ratio, computed as the ratio between the original and compressed response sizes.
