Issue

This PR refers to this issue #87 . It enables client to set GZip, grpc compression algorithm. By default no algorithm is applied.

Following code was modified

• 1st commit: functions in qdrant_client/connection.py
  • get_channel
  • get_async_channel
• 2nd commit: remote classes
  • class QdrantRemote in qdrant_client/qdrant_remote.py
  • class AsyncQdrantRemote in qdrant_client/async_qdrant_remote.py
• 3rd commit: client classes and grpc compression enum
  • class QdrantClient in qdrant_client/qdrant_client.py
  • class AsyncQdrantClient in qdrant_client/async_qdrant_client.py
  • qdrant_client/grpc/__init__.py

Usage

Gzip compression algorithm

from qdrant_client import QdrantClient
from qdrant_client.grpc import Compression

client = QdrantClient(
	prefer_grpc=True,
	grpc_compression=Compression.Gzip
)

No compression algorithm

from qdrant_client import QdrantClient
from qdrant_client.grpc import Compression

# client = QdrantClient(prefer_grpc=True)
# client = QdrantClient(prefer_grpc=True, grpc_compression=None)
client = QdrantClient(prefer_grpc=True, grpc_compression=Compression.NoCompression)

Hi @geetu040

Thanks for the contribution!

Do you think it would be possible to add some tests?

[geetu040]

@joein Thanks for seeing, I have added some test cases

This PR Closes #87

Hi @joein
If you think the changes are all good to go, can you merge them?

[joein]

Hey

Thanks for the contribution and sorry for the late response

Actually we would not like to extend client's signature with this parameter, since the signature is already large.
We haven't seen a big demand for this option either.
Thus, we would like to keep it in **kwargs

Hey @joein
I have moved grpc_compression parameter from client's signature to **kwargs

[joein]

eh, found a discrepancy between pre-commit setup and async-client-generator, should be fixed by now

@geetu040 thanks for the contribution!
