README

        
MimeMagic is a library to detect the mime type of a file by extension or by content. It uses the mime database

provided by freedesktop.org (see http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/shared-mime-info/).

Usage

=====

    require 'mimemagic'

    MimeMagic.by_extension('html').text?

    MimeMagic.by_extension('.html').child_of? 'text/plain'

    MimeMagic.by_path('filename.txt')

    MimeMagic.by_magic(File.open('test.html'))

    # etc...

Extra magic overlay

=====

Microsoft Office 2007+ formats (xlsx, docx, and pptx) are not supported by the mime database at freedesktop.org. These files are all zipped collections of xml files and will be detected as "application/zip". Mimemagic comes with extra magic you can overlay on top of the defaults to correctly detect these file types. Enable it like this:

    require 'mimemagic'

    require 'mimemagic/overlay'

    MimeMagic.by_magic(File.open('test.xlsx'))

You can add your own magic with `MimeMagic.add`. See `lib/mimemagic/overlay.rb`.
