Mime type

To determine the mime type, sFire uses a list of file extensions. This can be handy if you want to determine the mime type of a file based on the file extension.

In this section we will handle:

• Retrieve a mime type based on file extension
• List of available mime types

Retrieve a mime type based on file extension

You can retrieve a mime type by calling the get method. This method accepts a string parameter as the extension of a file. It will return NULL if there is no result.

use sFire\System\Mime;

$mime = Mime :: get('txt');

echo $mime; //Outputs "text/plain"

List of available mime types

Below is a list of extensions and their respective mime type.
