Review Summary
Great job setting up the server and handling the routing and validation correctly! However, this submission requires changes to meet all the project requirements. The most critical issue is that the server currently buffers the entire file into memory before compression, which doesn't meet the 'use Streams' requirement. For large files, this is very inefficient. Please refactor this to pipe the request stream through a zlib transform stream and then directly to the response. Additionally, the compressed file extensions are incorrect. The server is generating names like file.txt.gzip instead of the required file.txt.gz. You'll need to map the compressionType from the form (gzip, deflate, br) to the correct extensions (.gz, .dfl, .br) in the Content-Disposition header.

The logic inside this 'end' event handler doesn't meet the 'use Streams' requirement. Instead of processing the file in chunks as it arrives, your code buffers the entire request body into memory, which is inefficient for large files. A streaming approach would involve using a library to parse the multipart form data from the request stream, and then piping the file part through a zlib transform stream into the response.

The requirement specifies the file extensions should be .gz, .dfl, and .br. This implementation uses the compressionType value directly from the form, which would result in extensions like .gzip and .deflate. You'll need to map the compression type to the correct extension.

Review Summary
Thank you for your submission. This requires a few revisions to meet the project's core requirements. The server currently buffers the entire file into memory before compression, which goes against the central requirement to use streams. Please refactor this to pipe the incoming request stream through a zlib transform stream (e.g., zlib.createGzip()) directly to the response. Additionally, the compressed file extensions are incorrect; you need to map the compressionType from the form (e.g., gzip) to the correct extension (e.g., .gz). Lastly, the src/index.html file appears to be missing, which prevents the application from being tested, so please restore it.

This implementation buffers the entire request body into memory before processing it, which does not meet the core 'use Streams' requirement. A streaming approach processes data in chunks as it arrives. You should refactor this to parse the incoming request stream, pipe the file data through a zlib transform stream (e.g., zlib.createGzip()), and then pipe the result to the response stream. This avoids loading the entire file into memory.

The use of synchronous zlib methods blocks the server's event loop, which is inefficient. A streaming implementation would use asynchronous, stream-based methods like zlib.createGzip(), zlib.createDeflate(), and zlib.createBrotliCompress() which can be connected using .pipe().

The filename extension is being set directly from the compressionType variable, which results in extensions like .gzip. According to the task requirements, you need to map the compression type to a specific extension: gzip -> .gz, deflate -> .dfl, and br -> .br.
