Make use of the finfo() functions. A simple illustration: <?php $finfo = finfo_open(FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE); echo finfo_file($finfo, “path/to/image_dir/image.gif”); finfo_close($finfo); OUTPUT : image/gif Note : Windows users must include the bundled php_fileinfo.dll DLL file in php.ini to enable this extension.
There is a ruby binding to libmagic that does what you need. It is available as a gem named ruby-filemagic: gem install ruby-filemagic Require libmagic-dev. The documentation seems a little thin, but this should get you started: $ irb irb(main):001:0> require ‘filemagic’ => true irb(main):002:0> fm = FileMagic.new => #<FileMagic:0x7fd4afb0> irb(main):003:0> fm.file(‘foo.zip’) => “Zip archive … Read more
Using Jürgen’s mime.types link and a little command line magic, you can generate the list you want very quickly: wget -qO- http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/conf/mime.types | egrep -v ^# | awk ‘{ for (i=2; i<=NF; i++) {print $i” “$1}}’ | sort
Perhaps you could download the file and use this to get the file’s MIME type. + (NSString*) mimeTypeForFileAtPath: (NSString *) path { if (![[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:path]) { return nil; } // Borrowed from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5996797/determine-mime-type-of-nsdata-loaded-from-a-file // itself, derived from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2439020/wheres-the-iphone-mime-type-database CFStringRef UTI = UTTypeCreatePreferredIdentifierForTag(kUTTagClassFilenameExtension, (CFStringRef)[path pathExtension], NULL); CFStringRef mimeType = UTTypeCopyPreferredTagWithClass (UTI, kUTTagClassMIMEType); CFRelease(UTI); if (!mimeType) … Read more
Not built-in, but it’s not terribly hard to roll your own: function system_extension_mime_types() { # Returns the system MIME type mapping of extensions to MIME types, as defined in /etc/mime.types. $out = array(); $file = fopen(‘/etc/mime.types’, ‘r’); while(($line = fgets($file)) !== false) { $line = trim(preg_replace(‘/#.*/’, ”, $line)); if(!$line) continue; $parts = preg_split(‘/\s+/’, $line); if(count($parts) … Read more
If anyone wants to get the MimeType from the actual URL of the file this code worked for me: import MobileCoreServices func mimeTypeForPath(path: String) -> String { let url = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: path) let pathExtension = url.pathExtension if let uti = UTTypeCreatePreferredIdentifierForTag(kUTTagClassFilenameExtension, pathExtension! as NSString, nil)?.takeRetainedValue() { if let mimetype = UTTypeCopyPreferredTagWithClass(uti, kUTTagClassMIMEType)?.takeRetainedValue() { return mimetype … Read more
You can use magic numbers to detect a MIME type (check here the list of file signatures). However, file signatures are not 100% reliable and you can easily encounter false positives. Of course, there are tasks when a such solution is more than enough. So if you have a Base64 string and want to identify … Read more
To fix this, add curl option -H ‘Content-Type: application/json’ This error is due to strict content-type checking introduced in ElasticSearch 6.0, as explained in this post Starting from Elasticsearch 6.0, all REST requests that include a body must also provide the correct content-type for that body.
Apache Add the following line to either: the .htaccess in the directory serving your .pkpass, or to the mime.types file, or to your appache httpd.conf or virtuatl server .conf file Then restart Apache (not required if adding to .htaccess) AddType application/vnd.apple.pkpass pkpass nginx Add the following line to your mime.types file and restart nginx application/vnd.apple.pkpass … Read more
Issuing a new request just to get the MIME type is a bit heavy, and not reliable. For instance, if the currently displayed page is the result of a POST form submission, then issuing a GET request will usually not lead to the same page. If you’re developing an extension that frequently needs access to … Read more
