idhttp.post idcompressorzlib

Recommended Posts

i have seen lots of examples for get and decompress of data but nothing really for compress and post. after creating the idCompressor and assigning it to the idHTTP what needs to happen to compress the sRequest FileStream?

 

      sRequest and sResponse are TFileStreams
...
      idHTTP := TidHTTP.Create;
      idCompressor := TidCompressorZLib.Create(idHTTP);
      idHTTP.Compressor := idCompressor;
      idHTTP.ConnectTimeout := 60000;
      idHTTP.HTTPOptions := [hoKeepOrigProtocol,hoForceEncodeParams];
      idHTTP.ReadTimeout := 60000;
      idHTTP.HandleRedirects := True;
      idHTTP.IOHandler := SSLHandler;
      idHTTP.Request.BasicAuthentication := false;
      idHTTP.Request.CustomHeaders.Values['Authorization'] := 'Bearer ' + _token;
      idHTTP.Request.ContentType := string(aContentType);
      idHTTP.Request.CharSet := string(aCharSet);
      idHTTP.Post(trim(string(aURL)), sRequest, sResponse);

At this time, TIdHTTP does not support compressing requests, only decompressing responses. You would have to manually compress your post stream yourself and then set the TIdHTTP.Request.ContentEncoding header accordingly.
