JarCastingMimeTypes
Java (JVM) lookup table for standard mime types and their extensions.
API Usage
Get the extension for a mime type:
MimeTypes.getInstance().getByType("image/png").getExtension(); // returns "png"
Get all possible extensions for a mime type:
MimeTypes.getInstance().getByType("image/png").getExtensions(); // returns String[]{"png"}
MimeTypes.getInstance().getByType("text/html").getExtensions(); // returns String[]{"html", "htm"}
Get mime type for an extension:
MimeTypes.getInstance().getByExtension("png").getMimeType(); // returns "image/png"
Register a custom mimetype and query it up later:
MimeTypes.getInstance().register(new MimeType("application/vnd.awesome", new String[]{"wsm"}));
MimeTypes.getInstance().getByType("application/vnd.awesome").getExtension(); // returns "wsm"
Initialize with a custom "mime.types" definitions file:
new MimeTypes(Paths.get("/path/to/custom/mime.types"));
Alternatively:
MimeTypes.blank().load(Paths.get("/path/to/custom/mime.types"));
Build
Using maven:
mvn package
If you want the sources and javadocs too:
mvn package -P release

New releases are submitted to central, to use:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.github.amr</groupId>
<artifactId>mimetypes</artifactId>
<version>0.0.3</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
