|
||||||
|
- **minimum_length** the minimum number of bytes a response should have to be encoded. (Default is 512)
|
||||||
|
- **prefer** is the ordered list of enabled encoding formats to determine, which encoding to choose if the client has no strong preference (via q-factors in the `Accept-Encoding` header).
|
||||||
|
If **prefer** is not specified the first supported encoding from the `Accept-Encoding` header is used.
|
||||||
|
- **match** is a [Response matcher](#responsematcher). Only matching Responses are encoded. The default looks like this:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```caddy-d
|
||||||
|
match {
|
||||||
|
header Content-Type text/*
|

## Response matcher
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Response matchers** can be used to filter (or classify) responses by specific criteria.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### status
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```caddy-d
|
||||||
|
status <code...>
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
By HTTP status code.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **<code...>** is a list of HTTP status codes. Special cases are `2xx`, `3xx`, ... which match against all status codes in the range of 200-299, 300-399, ... respectively
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### header
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

Without the **prefer** setting, a `--compressed` HTTP request via [curl](https://curl.se/) (meaning `Accept-Encoding: deflate, gzip, br, zstd` in curl >=7.72.0) would be served with Gzip encoding, because it is the first accepted encoding that both client and server support. With the **prefer** setting Zstandard encoding is served, because the client has no preference but the server (caddy) has.

- **hide** is a list of files or folders to hide; if requested, the file server will pretend they do not exist. Accepts placeholders and glob patterns. Note that these are _file system_ paths, NOT request paths. In other words, relative paths use the current working directory as a base, NOT the site root; and all paths are transformed to their absolute form before comparisons (if possible). Specifying a file name or pattern without a path separator will hide all files with a matching name regardless of its location; otherwise, a path prefix match will be attempted, and then a globular match. Since this is a Caddyfile config, the active configuration file(s) will be added by default.

If supported by the client (`Accept-Encoding` header) checks the existence of precompressed files along side the requested file. So if `/path/to/file` is requested, it checks for `/path/to/file.zst`, `/path/to/file.br` and `/path/to/file.gz` in that order and serves the first available file with corresponding Content-Encoding:
