NAME

CGI::Application::Plugin::CompressGzip - Add gzip compression to CGI::Application

VERSION

version 1.02

SYNOPSIS

        package My::App;

        use base qw/CGI::Application/;
    use CGI::Application::Plugin::CompressGzip;

        sub some_run_mode {
                my $self = shift;
            my $query = $self->query;
        }
  

DESCRIPTION

This plugin automatically enables gzip content encoding in your CGI::Application program where appropriate. This reduces bandwidth, which is good for your server, and for your site's responsiveness. You "use" it once in your base class, and the rest is transparent.

It does its work by overriding cgiapp_get_query, which returns a new CGI::Compress::Gzip object instead of the default CGI object.

EXPORTS

cgiapp_get_query
        Returns a subclassed CGI object.
