compressible
Compressible Content-Type / mime checking.
Installation
$ npm install compressible
API
var compressible = require('compressible')
compressible(type)
Checks if the given Content-Type is compressible. The type argument is expected to be a value MIME type or Content-Type string, though no validation is performed.
The MIME is looked up in the mime-db and if there is compressible information in the database entry, that is returned. Otherwise, this module will fallback to true for the following types:
text/**/*+json*/*+text*/*+xml
If this module is not sure if a type is specifically compressible or specifically uncompressible, undefined is returned.
compressible('text/html') // => true
compressible('image/png') // => false
