http compression

[priyolahiri]

how do I make elastica use http compression after switching on http compression in elasticsearch?

Good question. Was not aware of this feature yet. Looks like we have to set CURLOPT_ENCODING. You can do this by setting the curl config params for the connections in Elastica\Client:

This becomes specially important when receiving large datasets back from Elastic. Gz compression helps immensely.

Did you try it out and did it work?

Not yet, Will fork, make the code changes and issue a pull request in the next two days.
