Enabling file compression

If you don't have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

1. View a description of the CLI update resource command:

   yc cdn resource update --help
   

2. Get a list of all resources in the default folder:

   yc cdn resource list --format yaml
   

   Result:

   id: someidkfjqjfl325fw
   folder_id: somefolder7p3l5eobbd
   cname: testexample.com
   created_at: "2022-01-19T09:23:57.921365Z"
   updated_at: "2022-01-19T10:55:30.305141Z"
   active: true
   options:
     edge_cache_settings:
       enabled: true
       default value: "345600"
     cache_http_headers:
       enabled: true
       value:
       - content-type
       - content-length
       - connection
       - server
       - date
       - test
     stale:
       enabled: true
       value:
       - error
       - updating
     allowed_http_methods:
       value:
       - GET
       - POST
       - HEAD
       - OPTIONS
   origin_group_id: "89783"
   origin_group_name: My origins group
   origin_protocol: HTTP
   ssl_certificate:
     type: DONT_USE
     status: READY
   

3. Enable file compression using the --gzip-on flag:

   yc cdn resource update <resource ID> --gzip-on
   

   For more information about the yc cdn resource update command, see the CLI reference.

If you do not have Terraform yet, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.

1. In the configuration file, describe the parameters of the CDN resource to create:

   terraform {
     required_providers {
       yandex = {
         source  = "yandex-cloud/yandex"
         version = "0.69.0"
       }
     }
   }
   
   provider "yandex" {
     token     = "<OAuth>"
     cloud_id  = "<cloud ID>"
     folder_id = "<folder ID>"
     zone      = "<availability zone>"
   }
   
   resource "yandex_cdn_resource" "my_resource" {
       cname               = "cdn1.yandex-example.ru"
       active              = false
       origin_protocol     = "https"
       secondary_hostnames = ["cdn-example-1.yandex.ru", "cdn-example-2.yandex.ru"]
       origin_group_id     = yandex_cdn_origin_group.my_group.id
       options {
         gzip_on = true
       }
   }
   

   Where:

   • cname: Primary domain name used for content distribution. This parameter is required.
   • active: Flag that indicates if content is available to end users. True: Content from the CDN is available to clients. Optional parameter, the default value is true.
   • origin_protocol: Origin protocol. This is an optional parameter.
   • secondary_hostnames: Additional domain names. This is an optional parameter.
   • origin_group_id: ID of the origin group. This parameter is required. Use the ID from the description of the origin group in the yandex_cdn_origin_group resource.
   • The options section contains additional parameters of CDN resources:
     • gzip_on: Flag that indicates whether compression will be used.

   For more information about yandex_cdn_resource parameters in Terraform, see the provider documentation.

2. In the command line, go to the directory with the Terraform configuration file.

3. Check the configuration using this command:

   terraform validate
   

   If the configuration is correct, you will get this message:

   Success! The configuration is valid.
   

4. Run this command:

   terraform plan
   

   The terminal will display a list of resources with parameters. No changes are made at this step. If the configuration contains any errors, Terraform will point them out.

5. Apply the configuration changes:

   terraform apply
   

6. Confirm the changes: type yes into the terminal and press Enter.

   You can check the changes to the CDN resource in the management console or using the CLI:

   yc cdn resource list
   

Use the update REST API method for the Resource resource or the ResourceService/Update gRPC API call.
