View Source MIME (mime v2.0.5)
Maps MIME types to its file extensions and vice versa.
MIME types can be extended in your application configuration as follows:
config :mime, :types, %{
"application/vnd.api+json" => ["json-api"]
}
Note that defining a new type will completely override all
previous extensions. You can use MIME.extensions/1
to get
the existing extension to keep when redefining.
You can also customize the extensions for suffixes. For example,
the mime type "application/custom+gzip" returns the extension
".gz"
because the suffix "gzip" maps to ["gz"]
:
config :mime, :suffixes, %{
"gzip" => ["gz"]
}
After adding the configuration, MIME needs to be recompiled if you are using an Elixir version earlier than v1.15. In such cases, it can be done with:
$ mix deps.clean mime --build
