Yes, that's exactly what I meant in the talk. Liberator can negotiate the content encoding but I does not implement any out of the box. If you really want to do it in your liberator resource, you'd need to implement it in your handler function and must not forget to set the "content-encoding" header. However, it is much easier to delegate this to a transparent proxy. If you want to have a ring-only system, then https://github.com/mikejs/ring-gzip-middleware might be a way to implement content-encoding lightweight. -billy. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
