Hi varnish-dev,
We're currently migrating our vmods from varnish 3, and we have a vmod which
is uncompressing request's body to handle situation where backends are very old
and not able to handle gzip encoding... It happens sometime.
Instead of rewriting this vmod into a V4 module, I was guessing if you see the
benefit of integrating into the core instead? It could be done by doing
something like
set req.do_gunzip = true;
VTC could be approx..:
$ cat g00008.vtc
varnishtest "test basic gunzip for client request body"
server s1 {
rxreq
expect req.http.content-encoding == <undef>
txresp -status 200
} -start
varnish v1 -cliok "param.set http_gzip_support true" -vcl+backend {
sub vcl_recv {
set req.do_gunzip = true;
}
} -start
client c1 {
txreq -gzipbody {FOOBARFOO}
rxresp
expect resp.status == 200
} -run
varnish v1 -expect n_gzip == 0
varnish v1 -expect n_gunzip == 1
If you think it's interesting and any PR are welcomed, I will be glad to do one.
Else, I will upgrade our VMOD instead :-)
