# autoCompress property

bool autoCompress
read / write

Whether the HttpServer should compress the content, if possible.

The content can only be compressed when the response is using chunked Transfer-Encoding and the incoming request has `gzip` as an accepted encoding in the Accept-Encoding header.

The default value is `false` (compression disabled). To enable, set `autoCompress` to `true`.

## Implementation
