After discussion https://review.openstack.org/#/c/129384/ moving to the doc directory in swift repo. This lets us eliminate the object-api repo along with all the <service>- api repos and move content to audience-centric locations. Change-Id: Ia0d9973847f7409a02dcc1a0e19400a3c3ecdf32

Use Content-Encoding metadata
|
||
=============================
|
||
|
||
When you create an object or update its metadata, you can optionally set
|
||
the ``Content-Encoding`` metadata. This metadata enables you to indicate
|
||
that the object content is compressed without losing the identity of the
|
||
underlying media type (``Content-Type``) of the file, such as a video.
|
||
|
||
**Example Content-Encoding header request: HTTP**
|
||
|
||
This example assigns an attachment type to the ``Content-Encoding``
|
||
header that indicates how the file is downloaded:
|
||
|
||
.. code::
|
||
|
||
PUT /<api version>/<account>/<container>/<object> HTTP/1.1
|
||
Host: storage.clouddrive.com
|
||
X-Auth-Token: eaaafd18-0fed-4b3a-81b4-663c99ec1cbb
|
||
Content-Type: video/mp4
|
||
Content-Encoding: gzip
