How to enable gzip compression in asp.net mvc
1) Code in Global Asax
add folowing name spaces
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.Mvc;
using System.Web.Optimization;
using System.Web.Routing;
using System.IO;
using System.IO.Compression;
using System.Threading;
void Application_PreRequestHandlerExecute(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var app = sender as HttpApplication;
if (app != null)
{
string acceptEncoding = app.Request.Headers["Accept-Encoding"];
Stream prevUncompressedStream = app.Response.Filter;
if (!(app.Context.CurrentHandler is Page ||
app.Context.CurrentHandler.GetType().Name == "SyncSessionlessHandler") ||
app.Request["HTTP_X_MICROSOFTAJAX"] != null)
return;
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(acceptEncoding))
return;
acceptEncoding = acceptEncoding.ToLower();
if (acceptEncoding.Contains("deflate") || acceptEncoding == "*")
{
// defalte
app.Response.Filter = new DeflateStream(prevUncompressedStream,
CompressionMode.Compress);
app.Response.AppendHeader("Content-Encoding", "deflate");
}
else if (acceptEncoding.Contains("gzip"))
{
// gzip
app.Response.Filter = new GZipStream(prevUncompressedStream,
CompressionMode.Compress);
app.Response.AppendHeader("Content-Encoding", "gzip");
}
}
}
2- Code add in web.config
<system.webServer>
<httpCompression directory="%SystemDrive%\inetpub\temp\IIS Temporary Compressed Files">
<scheme name="gzip" dll="%Windir%\system32\inetsrv\gzip.dll" />
<dynamicTypes>
<add mimeType="text/*" enabled="true" />
<add mimeType="message/*" enabled="true" />
<add mimeType="application/x-javascript" enabled="true" />
<add mimeType="*/*" enabled="false" />
</dynamicTypes>
<staticTypes>
<add mimeType="text/*" enabled="true" />
<add mimeType="message/*" enabled="true" />
<add mimeType="application/javascript" enabled="true" />
<add mimeType="*/*" enabled="false" />
</staticTypes>
</httpCompression>
</system.webServer>
