Using brotli compression in NGINX (especially for my_webapp)

Description of my issue

I would like to enable and use brotli compression for the text files in my webapp, instead of using gzip.

Unfortunately, I can’t do so because when running sudo apt install nginx-module-brotli I get: E: Unable to locate package nginx-module-brotli.

I also tried building nginx from source and get the brotli module from there, but with no success…

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

Brotli seems available out of the box from bookworm onwards, sorry!

It’s ok! It just means that I’ll have to wait for the next YunoHost version, no problem.

Thank you!
