I have Nodejs Project with ES6 Babel. I want to compress my API response using compression but it is not working as it response with same amount of response with and without compression.

app.js

import express from 'express';
import routes from './route/index';
import compression from 'compression';

let app = express();
app.use(compression());
app.use(routes);

I don't know what is wrong with this. I tried all the flags in compression as *level, threshold and filter but not succeed.

Please look into this https://medium.com/@victor.valencia.rico/gzip-compression-with-node-js-cc3ed74196f9 – Abhishek Jan 07 '22 at 11:55
@Abhishek I already tried following simple example in demo app and it works but not working in my ES6 based node app. This simple example has all to gather in one file, I have my routes are in different file. – Hardik Patel Jan 07 '22 at 12:19
Does it not compressing due to socket server ? @Abhishek – Hardik Patel Jan 08 '22 at 05:31
How are you testing this? – Quentin Sep 30 '22 at 09:46
