Author

This class can compress the output of the current HTTP response.

The class provides a function that the current script can use as a callback function to process the script output to compress it to reduce its size.

It can process the responses of requests that output data in JSON, HTML, or plain text format.

The class also issues HTTP response headers that are adequate for each type of output format.

The HTTP protocol allows compressing the responses to HTTP requests using several algorithms like gzip.

This possibility can make the Web servers respond faster to HTTP requests by reducing the amount transferred to the Web browser, especially when the response is in text formats like HTML, JSON, or plain text.

This package takes advantage of this possibility to reduce the size of HTTP responses generated by PHP scripts.

The package can compress the response data, even more when the output format is HTML because it also compresses HTML by eliminating unnecessary parts, like comments, spaces, and line breaks.
