说明:Compress content before it is delivered to the client

概要

The mod_deflate module provides the DEFLATE output filter that allows output from your server to be compressed before being sent to the client over the network.

Recommended Configuration

This is a sample configuration for the impatient. But please take the time and read the sections below for a detailed description!

Compress only a few types

AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml

Compress everything except images

<Location />
# Insert filter
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE

# Netscape 4.x has some problems...
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html

# Netscape 4.06-4.08 have some more problems
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip

# MSIE masquerades as Netscape, but it is fine
BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html

# Don't compress images
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \
\.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzip dont-vary

# Make sure proxies don't deliver the wrong content
Header append Vary User-Agent env=!dont-vary
</Location>

Enabling Compression

Output Compression

Compression is implemented by the DEFLATE filter. The following directive will enable compression for documents in the container where it is placed:

SetOutputFilter DEFLATE

Some popular browsers cannot handle compression of all content so you may want to set the gzip-only-text/html note to 1 to only allow html files to be compressed (see below). If you set this to anything but 1 it will be ignored.

If you want to restrict the compression to particular MIME types in general, you may use the AddOutputFilterByType directive. Here is an example of enabling compression only for the html files of the Apache documentation:

<Directory "/your-server-root/manual">
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
</Directory>

For browsers that have problems even with compression of all file types, use the BrowserMatch directive to set the no-gzip note for that particular browser so that no compression will be performed. You may combine no-gzip with gzip-only-text/html to get the best results. In that case the former overrides the latter. Take a look at the following excerpt from the configuration example defined in the section above:

BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip
BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html

At first we probe for a User-Agent string that indicates a Netscape Navigator version of 4.x. These versions cannot handle compression of types other than text/html. The versions 4.06, 4.07 and 4.08 also have problems with decompressing html files. Thus, we completely turn off the deflate filter for them.

The third BrowserMatch directive fixes the guessed identity of the user agent, because the Microsoft Internet Explorer identifies itself also as "Mozilla/4" but is actually able to handle requested compression. Therefore we match against the additional string "MSIE" (\b means "word boundary") in the User-Agent Header and turn off the restrictions defined before.

Note

The DEFLATE filter is always inserted after RESOURCE filters like PHP or SSI. It never touches internal subrequests.

Input Decompression

The mod_deflate module also provides a filter for decompressing a gzip compressed request body . In order to activate this feature you have to insert the DEFLATE filter into the input filter chain using SetInputFilter or AddInputFilter, for example:

<Location /dav-area>
SetInputFilter DEFLATE
</Location>

Now if a request contains a Content-Encoding: gzip header, the body will be automatically decompressed. Few browsers have the ability to gzip request bodies. However, some special applications actually do support request compression, for instance some WebDAV clients.

Note on Content-Length

If you evaluate the request body yourself, don't trust the Content-Length header! The Content-Length header reflects the length of the incoming data from the client and not the byte count of the decompressed data stream.

Dealing with proxy servers

The mod_deflate module sends a Vary: Accept-Encoding HTTP response header to alert proxies that a cached response should be sent only to clients that send the appropriate Accept-Encoding request header. This prevents compressed content from being sent to a client that will not understand it.

If you use some special exclusions dependent on, for example, the User-Agent header, you must manually configure an addition to the Vary header to alert proxies of the additional restrictions. For example, in a typical configuration where the addition of the DEFLATE filter depends on the User-Agent, you should add:

Header append Vary User-Agent

If your decision about compression depends on other information than request headers (e.g. HTTP version), you have to set the Vary header to the value *. This prevents compliant proxies from caching entirely.

Example

Header set Vary *

DeflateBufferSize 指令

说明:Fragment size to be compressed at one time by zlib
语法:DeflateBufferSize value
默认值:DeflateBufferSize 8096
上下文:服务器配置, 虚拟主机
状态:Extension
模块:mod_deflate

The DeflateBufferSize directive specifies the size in bytes of the fragments that zlib should compress at one time.

top

DeflateCompressionLevel 指令

说明:How much compression do we apply to the output
语法:DeflateCompressionLevelvalue
默认值:Zlib's default
上下文:服务器配置, 虚拟主机
状态:Extension
模块:mod_deflate
兼容性:This directive is available since Apache 2.0.45

The DeflateCompressionLevel directive specifies what level of compression should be used, the higher the value, the better the compression, but the more CPU time is required to achieve this.

The value must between 1 (less compression) and 9 (more compression).

top

DeflateFilterNote 指令

说明:Places the compression ratio in a note for logging
语法:DeflateFilterNote [type] notename
上下文:服务器配置, 虚拟主机
状态:Extension
模块:mod_deflate
兼容性:type is available since Apache 2.0.45

The DeflateFilterNote directive specifies that a note about compression ratios should be attached to the request. The name of the note is the value specified for the directive. You can use that note for statistical purposes by adding the value to your access log.

Example

DeflateFilterNote ratio

LogFormat '"%r" %b (%{ratio}n) "%{User-agent}i"' deflate
CustomLog logs/deflate_log deflate

If you want to extract more accurate values from your logs, you can use the type argument to specify the type of data left as note for logging. type can be one of:

Input
Store the byte count of the filter's input stream in the note.
Output
Store the byte count of the filter's output stream in the note.
Ratio
Store the compression ratio (output/input * 100) in the note. This is the default, if the type argument is omitted.

Thus you may log it this way:

Accurate Logging

DeflateFilterNote Input instream
DeflateFilterNote Output outstream
DeflateFilterNote Ratio ratio

LogFormat '"%r" %{outstream}n/%{instream}n (%{ratio}n%%)' deflate
CustomLog logs/deflate_log deflate

DeflateMemLevel 指令

说明:How much memory should be used by zlib for compression
语法:DeflateMemLevel value
默认值:DeflateMemLevel 9
上下文:服务器配置, 虚拟主机
状态:Extension
模块:mod_deflate

The DeflateMemLevel directive specifies how much memory should be used by zlib for compression (a value between 1 and 9).

top

DeflateWindowSize 指令

说明:Zlib compression window size
语法:DeflateWindowSize value
默认值:DeflateWindowSize 15
上下文:服务器配置, 虚拟主机
状态:Extension
模块:mod_deflate

The DeflateWindowSize directive specifies the zlib compression window size (a value between 1 and 15). Generally, the higher the window size, the higher can the compression ratio be expected.
