Description

NGINX module that parses, normalizes, and manages the Accept-Encoding headers from client requests. It ensures consistent handling of compression algorithms by standardizing the Accept-Encoding values, reducing cache variant explosion and improving vary cache performance. This is essential for proxy caching with Vary: Accept-Encoding to prevent creating multiple cache entries for equivalent compression preferences like "gzip, br" vs "br, gzip".

Built for Debian.
