## Handling custom request body encodings

Let's see how to make use of a custom `Request` subclass to decompress gzip requests.

And an `APIRoute` subclass to use that custom request class.

### Create a custom `GzipRequest` class

/// tip

/// note | "Technical Details"

Actually, `Query`, `Path` and others you'll see next create objects of subclasses of a common `Param` class, which is itself a subclass of Pydantic's `FieldInfo` class.

And Pydantic's `Field` returns an instance of `FieldInfo` as well.

`Body` also returns objects of a subclass of `FieldInfo` directly. And there are others you will see later that are subclasses of the `Body` class.

 * subclasses. Without such overrides, optimizers might put a {@code writeReplace}-containing class
 * and its subclass in different packages, causing the serialization system to fail to invoke {@code
 * writeReplace} when serializing an instance of the subclass. For an example of this problem, see
 * b/310253115.

public class WriteReplaceOverridesTest extends TestCase {

This simple case is handled automatically by FastAPI because the return type annotation is the class (or a subclass of) `Response`.

And tools will also be happy because both `RedirectResponse` and `JSONResponse` are subclasses of `Response`, so the type annotation is correct.

### Annotate a Response Subclass

You can also use a subclass of `Response` in the type annotation:

class AbstractFunction : public core::RefCounted {
 protected:
  enum AbstractFunctionKind { kGraph, kMlir };
  explicit AbstractFunction(AbstractFunctionKind kind) : kind_(kind) {}

 public:
  // Returns which subclass is this instance of.
  AbstractFunctionKind getKind() const { return kind_; }

  // Returns the AbstractFunction as a FunctionDef.
  virtual absl::Status GetFunctionDef(const FunctionDef**) = 0;

// Attributes of an op.
class AbstractOpAttrs {
 protected:
  enum AbstractOpAttrsKind { kEager, kTfrt };
  explicit AbstractOpAttrs(AbstractOpAttrsKind kind) : kind_(kind) {}

 public:
  // Returns which subclass is this instance of.
  AbstractOpAttrsKind getKind() const { return kind_; }
  virtual ~AbstractOpAttrs() = default;

  // Returns the AbstractFunction as a FunctionDef.
