🤗 [Question]: How to get the RAW body?

[alanhe]

Question Description

I want to support multi- Content-Encoding.

I find the method Body() that is supposed to give me the raw body. But when I check the source code, it seems to decompress some encodings by default.

For example, when it is gzip, I can call Body() to get the decompressed body, while it is snappy, I will have to handle the decompression logic myself.

Could you teach me if there's a better way to handle decompression?

fiber/ctx.go

Lines 281 to 311 in 8ec62a6

	// Body contains the raw body submitted in a POST request.
	// Returned value is only valid within the handler. Do not store any references.
	// Make copies or use the Immutable setting instead.
	func (c *Ctx) Body() []byte {
	var err error
	var encoding string
	var body []byte
	// faster than peek
	c.Request().Header.VisitAll(func(key, value []byte) {
	if utils.UnsafeString(key) == HeaderContentEncoding {
	encoding = utils.UnsafeString(value)
	}
	})
	switch encoding {
	case StrGzip:
	body, err = c.fasthttp.Request.BodyGunzip()
	case StrBr, StrBrotli:
	body, err = c.fasthttp.Request.BodyUnbrotli()
	case StrDeflate:
	body, err = c.fasthttp.Request.BodyInflate()
	default:
	body = c.fasthttp.Request.Body()
	}
	if err != nil {
	return []byte(err.Error())
	}
	return body
	}

just use c.fasthttp.Request.Body() like we do

Thank you very much for the tip! c.Request().Body()
