mime-types

The ultimate javascript content-type utility.
Similar to [the mime@1.x module](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mime), except:
- No fallbacks. Instead of naively returning the first available type, mime-types simply returns false, so do var type = mime.lookup('unrecognized') || 'application/octet-stream'.
- No new Mime() business, so you could do var lookup = require('mime-types').lookup.
- No .define() functionality
- Bug fixes for .lookup(path)
Otherwise, the API is compatible with mime 1.x.
Install
This is a Node.js module available through the npm registry. Installation is done using the [npm install command](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/installing-npm-packages-locally):
sh $ npm install mime-types
Adding Types
All mime types are based on mime-db, so open a PR there if you'd like to add mime types.
API
<!-- eslint-disable no-unused-vars -->
js var mime = require('mime-types')
All functions return false if input is invalid or not found.
mime.lookup(path)
Lookup the content-type associated with a file.
<!-- eslint-disable no-undef -->
js mime.lookup('json') // 'application/json' mime.lookup('.md') // 'text/markdown' mime.lookup('file.html') // 'text/html' mime.lookup('folder/file.js') // 'application/javascript' mime.lookup('folder/.htaccess') // false mime.lookup('cats') // false
mime.contentType(type)
Create a full content-type header given a content-type or extension. When given an extension, mime.lookup is used to get the matching content-type, otherwise the given content-type is used. Then if the content-type does not already have a charset parameter, mime.charset is used to get the default charset and add to the returned content-type.
<!-- eslint-disable no-undef -->
js mime.contentType('markdown') // 'text/x-markdown; charset=utf-8' mime.contentType('file.json') // 'application/json; charset=utf-8' mime.contentType('text/html') // 'text/html; charset=utf-8' mime.contentType('text/html; charset=iso-8859-1') // 'text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' // from a full path mime.contentType(path.extname('/path/to/file.json')) // 'application/json; charset=utf-8'
mime.extension(type)
Get the default extension for a content-type.
<!-- eslint-disable no-undef -->
js mime.extension('application/octet-stream') // 'bin'
mime.charset(type)
Lookup the implied default charset of a content-type.
<!-- eslint-disable no-undef -->
js mime.charset('text/markdown') // 'UTF-8'
var type = mime.types[extension]
A map of content-types by extension.
[extensions...] = mime.extensions[type]
A map of extensions by content-type.
