Describe in detail the problem you had and how this PR fixes it
express-static-gzip
doesn't gunzip gzipped files for clients that don't haveAccept-Encoding: gzip
, so it has been replaced by a simple clone that does the same thing as the original module and also useszlib
(native module) to gunzip the.gz
file when the client does not support gzip encoding.This middleware is compatible with files that aren't
.gz
in therootFolder
, although it will not gzip them on the fly (to my knowledge). It should also be compatible with accessing the raw gzipped files by adding.gz
to the URL.Is there an open issue you can link to?
