What is the Jersey 2.0 equivalent of GZIPContentEncodingFilter

Question

I am in the progress to migrate a Jerset 1.x client project to Jersey 2.0.

I found that GZIPContentEncodingFilter does not exist any longer. Is there something similar?

I stumbled over GZIPEncoder but am not sure how to plug it in.

In Jersey 1.17 I use:

WebResource r = ...
r.register(new GZIPContentEncodingFilter());

In Jersey 2.0 I search for somethink like:

WebTarget r = ...
r.register(new GZIPContentEncodingFilter());

Are you using jersey 2.0 on the server side as well? If so, may I ask how you got gzip-encoding to work? (I've posted a question regarding this [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19751014/gzip-encoding-in-jersey-2).) — aioobe, Nov 03 '13 at 10:17

Use

WebTarget r = ...
r.register(GZIPEncoder.class);

Hey, I have some more errors in my project. I will accept your answer when I'm finished and can try it. Thanks! – Frederick Roth Jul 25 '13 at 06:22

Works for me only if executed after r.register(EncodingFilter.class). The same calling sequence met in Jersey unit tests. See https://github.com/jersey/jersey/blob/master/tests/e2e/src/test/java/org/glassfish/jersey/tests/e2e/common/EncodingTest.java – Alfishe May 05 '14 at 17:32

Most of details can be obtained from Jersey's own unit tests. So to allow responses to be compressed using GZip or Deflate algorighms (in cost of increased CPU load and latency) you should use:

WebResource r = ...
r.register(EncodingFilter.class); // Allow to process encodings
r.register(GZIPEncoder.class);
r.register(DeflateEncoder.class);

See configure method in Jersey v2.x encoding unit test: EncodingTest

In Jersey 2.x (I use 2.26):

WebTarget target = ...
target.register(GZipEncoder.class);

I did not have to include EncodingFilter/DeflateEncoder.

Anotate method with @GZIP , It internally uses GZIP Encoder and remove GZIPContentEncodingFilter from web.xml that solves problem

Could you please provide a link to `@GZIP`? – Jul 24 '13 at 12:42
I tried resteasy has direct support http://docs.jboss.org/resteasy/docs/2.0.0.GA/userguide/html/gzip.html – sreemanth pulagam Jul 24 '13 at 13:09
I'm pretty sure this answer is for the server not the client. The OP is asking about the client. – Jason Mar 19 '14 at 23:38

This answer is specifically for RestEasy. @GZIP is not defined in Jersey server. – Samuel Apr 28 '14 at 17:05
