# Content Encoding
Actix-web automatically *decompresses* payloads. The following codecs are supported:
* Brotli
* Chunked
* Compress
* Gzip
* Deflate
* Identity
* Trailers
* EncodingExt
If request headers contain a `Content-Encoding` header, the request payload is decompressed
according to the header value. Multiple codecs are not supported, i.e: `Content-Encoding: br, gzip`.
# JSON Request
There are several options for json body deserialization.
The first option is to use *Json* extractor. First, you define a handler function
that accepts `Json<T>` as a parameter, then, you use the `.to()` method for registering
this handler. It is also possible to accept arbitrary valid json object by
using `serde_json::Value` as a type `T`.
{{< include-example example="requests" file="main.rs" section="json-request" >}}
You may also manually load the payload into memory and then deserialize it.
In the following example, we will deserialize a *MyObj* struct. We need to load the request
body first and then deserialize the json into an object.
{{< include-example example="requests" file="manual.rs" section="json-manual" >}}
> A complete example for both options is available in [examples directory][examples].
# Chunked transfer encoding
Actix automatically decodes *chunked* encoding. The [`web::Payload`][payloadextractor]
extractor already contains the decoded byte stream. If the request payload is compressed
with one of the supported compression codecs (br, gzip, deflate), then the byte stream
is decompressed.
# Multipart body
Actix-web provides multipart stream support with an external crate, [`actix-multipart`][multipartcrate].
> A full example is available in the [examples directory][multipartexample].
# Urlencoded body
Actix-web provides support for *application/x-www-form-urlencoded* encoded bodies with
the [`web::Form`][formencoded] extractor which resolves to the deserialized instance. The
type of the instance must implement the `Deserialize` trait from *serde*.
The *UrlEncoded* future can resolve into an error in several cases:
* content type is not `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`
* transfer encoding is `chunked`.
* content-length is greater than 256k
* payload terminates with error.
{{< include-example example="requests" file="urlencoded.rs" section="urlencoded" >}}
# Streaming request
*HttpRequest* is a stream of `Bytes` objects. It can be used to read the request
body payload.
In the following example, we read and print the request payload chunk by chunk:
