Hi team, I have been trying to understand the grpc java compression decompression logic, but am having hard time on how to have server to compress response messages based on what client accepts. Here is my understanding so far -
1. On the client side - using the following link I am setting the compression type to gzip. This is compressing all messages sent from client to server https://grpc.github.io/grpc-java/javadoc/io/grpc/stub/AbstractStub.html#withCompression-java.lang.String- 2. For messages back from server - I have figured out a way to add interceptor in server builder to add compression with type gzip. This does perform compressing, but this is introducing a constraint on server. If for example I specify 'snappy' (custom codec) here in place of gzip in server builder, (client has default compressor registry, so supports identity and gzip only) my understanding is negotiation fails as 'snappy' is not supported by client and falls back to identity. But in such cases I would want server to do gzip compression rather than identity. Is this possible ? By this server compresses messages based on what client accepts Thanks in advance!
