README

Creates a JSON document containing a thorough list of file extensions => mime types as provided by the Apache httpd project.

How to use

Step 1

Download the latest copy of the Apache mime-types file into the same directory as the generate script.

cd mimetypes &&
wget --no-check-certificate https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/branches/2.4.x/docs/conf/mime.types

Step 1.5 (optional)

Update the provided customize.json document with any additional mimetypes to define, or any that you would like to override.

Step 2

Run the generate script.

./generate

In the end, a mimetypes.json document will be generated. This JSON document can be easily parsed into a map/dictionary/associative array by pretty much every programming language with little effort.

It also generates a backing PHP class if you want to use the data in PHP-land.

Installation

Install source from GitHub

To install the source code:

git clone git://github.com/skyzyx/mimetypes.git

And use it in your scripts:

$mimetypes = json_decode('/path/to/mimetypes/mimetypes.json', true);
$type = $mimetypes['html'];
#=> text/html

// ...or...

use Skyzyx\Components\Mimetypes\Mimetypes;
$type = Mimetypes::getInstance()->fromExtension('html');
#=> text/html

Install with Composer

If you're using Composer to manage dependencies, you can add the mimetypes with it.

{
    "require": {
        "skyzyx/mimetypes": ">=1.0"
    }
}

skyzyx / mimetypes
