How to enable compression for Angular app on App Service Linux?

Question

Hi,

I've followed this tutorial for deployment of an Angular app on App Service Linux, but I didn't find a way of enabling compression for Angular applications when running on Linux App Service. How this can be achieved?

Answer 1

Hi @Ninax1 ,

Thanks for the question. Compression is not enabled on Azure App Service Linux by default but there are two ways to enable this.

Two general approaches to enabling compression are:

• Enabling this on a proxy in front of the application
• Enabling this on the application (through code)

Since on App Services we don’t expose configuration to any platform components, this would need to be done through application code.

Please follow this steps in this tutorial to enable compression for your node application.

Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have further questions

Thanks,
Grace
