!!! info

Responses are compressed when:

* The response body is larger than `1400` bytes.
* The `Accept-Encoding` request header contains `gzip`.
* The response is not already compressed, i.e. the `Content-Encoding` response header is not already set.

Configuration Options

excludedContentTypes

excludedContentTypes specifies a list of content types to compare the Content-Type header of the incoming requests to before compressing.

The requests with content types defined in excludedContentTypes are not compressed.

Content types are compared in a case-insensitive, whitespace-ignored manner.
