An example configuration for mod_gzip
The exact amount of the requested functions is to be described by additional Apache configuration directives which become available by the mod_gzip module integration.
A really complete documentation of the effect of these directives isn't available at the moment; in general assume that
- about everything can be used in every environment, i. e.
- in the complete server scope,
- in separate virtual hosts,
- in directories or even
- in
.htaccessfiles
- basically the standard overwriting procedures of Apache apply - except for the directives to specify the selection of contents to be compressed, where things become a bit more complicated.
The configuration described below really isn't meant for blindly copying into your own configuration - its intention rather is to give you a feeling about how many options are provided. And there are lots of options - at least if you 'just want to get compressed output data' ...

####################################### ### Apache configuration directives ### ### for mod_gzip 1.3.26.1a ### ####################################### ########################## ### loading the module ### ########################## # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # load DLL / Win32: # LoadModule gzip_module modules/ApacheModuleGzip.dll # # load DSO / UNIX: # LoadModule gzip_module modules/mod_gzip.so # # (none of both if module has been compiled in statically;
# the exact file name may depend upon the exact compilation method used # for this module)
# --------------------------------------------------------------------- <IfModule mod_gzip.c> ######################## ### responsibilities ### ######################## # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # use mod_gzip at all? mod_gzip_on Yes # (you can especially enable mod_gzip inside the central server # configuration but disable it inside some directories ot virtual # hosts by using this directive.) # --------------------------------------------------------------------- ###################################### ### statically precompressed files ### ###################################### # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # let mod_gzip perform 'partial content negotiation'? mod_gzip_can_negotiate Yes # (if this option is active and a static file is to be served in com- # pressed for, then mod_gzip will look for a static precompressed # version of this file with a defined additional extension - see next # directive - which would be delivered with priority. This would allow # for avoiding to repeatedly compress the same static file and thus # saving CPU time. # No dynamic caching of this file is provided; currently the user # himself is responsible for creating and updating the precompressed # file's content.
# From version 1.3.19.2a mod_gzip automatically recognizes whether # a statically precompressed file is older than its uncompressed # original and in this case will serve the content of the original # file in uncompressed form - as to rather serve correct data than # outdated ones ...)
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------
# extension (suffix) for statically precompressed files mod_gzip_static_suffix .gz AddEncoding gzip .gz # (effect: see previous directive; this string will be appended to the # name of the original file. # be sure to configure the encoding 'gzip' for this extension as well, # because mod_gzip doesn't serve the content itself but simply generates # an Apache internal redirection to this URL. Therefore the remaining # Apache configuration is responsible for setting the 'Content-Encoding' # header properly ... # prior to version 1.3.19.2a this value was not configurable.)
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------
# automatic updates for statically precompressed files mod_gzip_update_static No # (if set to 'Yes', this directive (being new in version 1.3.26.1a) would # cause mod_gzip to automatically update an outdated version of any # statically precompressed file during the request, i. e. compress the # originally requested file and overwrite the precompressed variant # file with it! # for each automatic update of this type, mod_gzip will write a message # of the severity 'notice' into the Apache error_log. # while doing so, mod_gzip will directly read the original file's content. # therefore this content cannot be interpreted by any other Apache module # during the request. this might possibly not be what you want - hopefully # it will be what most users want, because it works fast this way. # use this configuration with a lot of care, and be sure that you don't # inadvertantly cause valuable files within the URL tree to be overwritten. # this isn't a feature to be used for mass hosting servers, especially # because mod_gzip might experience access control problems there - the # userid the Apache processes are running under need to have write access # to the precompressed files of all users, which may not automatically be # the case.) # [mod_gzip error handling in this situation??? what will be served?]
# --------------------------------------------------------------------- ################### ### bureaucracy ### ################### # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # display status for mod_gzip mod_gzip_command_version '/mod_gzip_status' # (defines an URL to display the status of mod_gzip; can be specified # individually for each installation and protected against access via # <Location> section for privacy reasons) # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # The status display will look like this: # mod_gzip is available... # mod_gzip_version = 1.3.26.1a # mod_gzip_on = Yes/No # and thus will provide information about # - mod_gzip being installed at the server and working correctly, # - which version has been installed and # - whether mod_gzip has been set 'active' for this Location # (-> mod_gzip_on) # --------------------------------------------------------------------- ####################### ### data management ### ####################### # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # Working directory for temporary files and the compression cache # if not specified, the following default values are used: # [Win32=c:/temp], [UNIX=/tmp] # mod_gzip_temp_dir /tmp # (This directory must already exist and the userid being used for # running the Apache server must have read and write access to this # directory. # Unlike other Apache directives an absolute path name must be specified # here; a relative value will not be interpreted relatively to ServerRoot. # This pastname must NOT be terminated with '/'. # For maximum performance this directory should be located on a RAM disk, # if the file system isn't already being cached efficiently # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # Save temporary work files [Yes, No] mod_gzip_keep_workfiles No # (one file per HTTP request - set to 'yes' for debugging purpose only!) # --------------------------------------------------------------------- ################## ### file sizes ### ################## # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # minimum size (in bytes) for files to be compressed mod_gzip_minimum_file_size 500 # (for very small files compression will produce only small absolute gains # [you will still save about 50% of the content, but some additional # 500 bytes of HTTP and TCP headers will always remain uncompressed], # but still produce CPU load for both client and server. # mod_gzip will automatically set smaller values than 300 bytes for # this directive to exactly this value 300.) # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # maximum size (in bytes) for files to be compressed mod_gzip_maximum_file_size 500000 # (for very large files compression may eventually take rather long and # thus delay the start of the transmission. # Furthermode a limitation at this point prevents the server from # producing output of unlimited size in case of some endless loop # inside a CGI script - or even trying to compress streaming data - # which might otherwise cause the creation of a temporary file of # any size and even fill up the whole hard disk. # On the other hand, compression will have a much more perceivable # subjective effect for large files ... so be sure to fine-tune this # according to your requirements.) # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # maximum size (in bytes) for files to be compressed in memory mod_gzip_maximum_inmem_size 60000 # (larger files will be compressed into the temp file directory; adapt # this value to your server's available main memory. # In mod_gzip 1.3.19.x larger values will automatically be limited to # 60000 because some operating systems are said to have problems # allocating more than 64 kb of memory at a time. # --------------------------------------------------------------------- #################### ### requirements ### #################### # (see chapter about caching for problems when using these directives.) # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # Required HTTP version of the client # Possible values: 1000 = HTTP/1.0, 1001 = HTTP/1.1, ... # This directive uses the same numeric protocol values as Apache does # internally mod_gzip_min_http 1000 # (By using this directive you may exclude old browsers, search engines # etc. from the compression procedure: if the user agent doesn't # declare itself capable of understanding at least the HTTP level # specified here, only uncompressed data will be delivered - no matter # what else it claims to be able to. The value of '1001' will especially # exclude Netscape 4.x. and a lot of proxy servers.) # ---------------------------------------------------------------------
# HTTP methods to be handled # Possible values: 'GET', 'POST' or a list of both values. mod_gzip_handle_methods GET POST # (By using this directive you may particularly exclude POST requests # from the compression procedure. There are known cases where the # handling of these requests by previous mod_gzip versions could cause # problems. # Before version 1.3.19.2a this value was not configurable.)
# --------------------------------------------------------------------- ############### ### filters ### ############### # --------------------------------------------------------------------- # which files are to be compressed? # # The order of processing during each of both phases is not important, # but to trigger the compression of a request's content this request # a) must match at least one include rule in each of both phases and # b) must not match an exclude rule in any of both phases. # These rules are not minimal, they are meant to serve as example only. #
# Note that all parameter values of the directives in this section are # evaluated as regular expressions, and not in a case-sensitive way.
# --------------------------------------------------------------------- # phase 1: (reqheader, uri, file, handler) # ======================================== # NO: special broken browsers which request for gzipped content # but then aren't able to handle it correctly mod_gzip_item_exclude reqheader "User-agent: Mozilla/4.0[678]"
# From version 1.3.19.2a on I advise against using filters # for User-agents, as this will cause HTTP-Headers 'Vary: User-Agent' # to be generated, thus making life more difficult for proxy servers.

Order while loading modules
When adding this module dynamically you have to keep in mind that mod_gzip should be specified as last one of several LoadModule directives to be used.
This is because Apache will internally build a stack from the LoadModule directives and later evaluate it in reverse order.
mod_gzip hooks itself into the type_checker routine of Apache; but only the first of all modules declaring itself as responsible for handling of a request (e. g. ColdFusion and SSL will try to) will really be activated by Apache. So mod_gzip has to be activated before those modules whose output it wants to redirect into itself and then postprocess - as long as these modules try to use the same type_checker interface ... if they don't, then it may work independently from this order of directives.
During Apache's start message (which can be found e. g. inside the Apache error log) modules having individual version specifications may be listed exactly in the order they appear inside the module chain; there mod_gzip has to be listed before other modules whose output it is intended to compress.
