Force compression to client don't work #83
Description

Hi @zhaoyou, sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet. Yes, this is a hole in the module currently, that you cannot override the way the module checks if the client is capable of receiving compressed content, and I think it would be good to add it.
In the meantime, I would like the offer the following work-around for your use-case:
app.get('/device', auth_identity, always_compress, compression(), device) function always_compress (req, res, next) { req.headers['accept-encoding'] = 'gzip' next() }
@dougwilson Thanks 👍 for your explanation and suggestion.
Allowing the option to choose a default encoder can solve this issue.
I want compression response body to client always , Whether the client have any Settings。My Client App is poor what can't set any request header, but can handle compression data.
Why ? thanks.
