Frank Lyaruu created FELIX-3591:
-----------------------------------
Summary: The HTTP client does not accept gzip encoding when
retrieving obr repositories
Key: FELIX-3591
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-3591
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Bundle Repository (OBR)
Affects Versions: bundlerepository-1.6.6
Reporter: Frank Lyaruu
Priority: Minor
OBR repository metadata can be pretty big and it is very compressable (for
larger repositories I'm seeing a factor of more than 20), so it can save a lot
of time and bandwidth if it can be compressed.
I use a OBR virtual repository on Nexus. Nexus will compress the obr data if
the client adds the Accept-Encoding gzip header. So if the bundle repository
could add that header (and deal with compressed data) that would help me a lot.
