Features

Support for Brotli, Gzip, and Deflate encodings, compile-time configurable through cargo feature flags.
- Prioritizes Brotli if available.
- Only pulls in the necessary dependencies for the desired configuration.
- Defaults to Brotli & Gzip.
- Also handles the "identity" encoding directive as per RFC 9110.
Accept-Encoding header checking including priority.
Minimum body size threshold (Default: 1024 bytes, configurable).
Does not compress responses with a Cache-Control: no-transform header.
Sets the Vary header.
Checks the Content-Type header (MIME).
- Checks against jshttp's comprehensive database, which is compiled to a perfect hash function.
- The database can be regenerated in the crate's repository by running cargo run generate-database.
- If not in the database, checks against a regular expression.
  - Default: ^text/|\+(?:json|text|xml)$ (case insensitive).
  - Fully override-able to any custom Regex, with None as an option.
- Functionality can be excluded in crate features if the regex crate poses build issues.
