Background We have an old app using Phoenix 1.2 and we have dozens of endpoints. We want 1 of these endpoints to have its responses compressed via gzip (or whatever the default is that Phoenix uses). Code We have all our endpoints defined in a file like this: defmodule MyApp.Router do use MyApp.W…

There is no way to do such, as this is feature of the adapter (Cowboy in most common example), not endpoint per se. So unless you run separate adapter for that controller then there is no way to compress responses.

maybe use send_resp and do it manually eg use :zlib.gzip(response) and add the appropriate headers?

That’s the only way we can do it, apparently, yes.
