How to compress Camel HTTP responses?

I am using Camel's REST endpoint to implement HTTP endpoints. I want to enable HTTP payload compression on the responses, but haven't found a way to achieve it. If I add a marshall().gzip() bit to the routes, it does compress the payload but I end up with a compressed file instead!

Did anyone manage to implement HTTP compression in Camel?

Thank you!

Depending on which http component you use for the rest component, then they may support automatic compression if you set the content-encoding header to be gzip compressed. For the jetty ought to support this.

There is a standard http syntax for that, usually that the content-encoding header has the word gzip included.

Camel uses this util method to determine that: org.apache.camel.util.GZIPHelper#isGzip(org.apache.camel.Message)
