Summary : Guess media type for a file or a URL
Description :
This module provides functions for handling media (also known as MIME)
types and encodings. The mapping from file extensions to media types is
defined by the _media.types_ file. If the _~/.media.types_ file exists it
is used instead. For backwards compatibility we will also look for
_~/.mime.types_.
The following functions are exported by default:
* guess_media_type( $filename )
* guess_media_type( $uri )
* guess_media_type( $filename_or_object, $header_to_modify )
This function tries to guess media type and encoding for a file or objects
that support the a 'path' or 'filename' method, eg, URI or File::Temp
objects. When an object does not support either method, it will be
stringified to determine the filename. It returns the content type, which
is a string like '"text/html"'. In array context it also returns any
content encodings applied (in the order used to encode the file). You can
pass a URI object reference, instead of the file name.
If the type can not be deduced from looking at the file name, then
guess_media_type() will let the '-T' Perl operator take a look. If this
works (and '-T' returns a TRUE value) then we return _text/plain_ as the
type, otherwise we return _application/octet-stream_ as the type.
The optional second argument should be a reference to a HTTP::Headers
object or any object that implements the $obj->header method in a similar
way. When it is present the values of the 'Content-Type' and
'Content-Encoding' will be set for this header.
* media_suffix( $type, ... )
This function will return all suffixes that can be used to denote the
specified media type(s). Wildcard types can be used. In a scalar context it
will return the first suffix found. Examples:
@suffixes = media_suffix('image/*', 'audio/basic');
$suffix = media_suffix('text/html');
The following functions are only exported by explicit request:
* add_type( $type, @exts )
Associate a list of file extensions with the given media type. Example:
add_type("x-world/x-vrml" => qw(wrl vrml));
* add_encoding( $type, @ext )
Associate a list of file extensions with an encoding type. Example:
add_encoding("x-gzip" => "gz");
* read_media_types( @files )
Parse media types files and add the type mappings found there. Example:
read_media_types("conf/mime.types");
