Hoa is a modular, extensible and structured set of PHP libraries.
Moreover, Hoa aims at being a bridge between industrial and research worlds.
Hoa\Mime
This library allows to manipulate a MIME types database and get some related informations about streams.
Installation
With Composer, to include this library into your dependencies, you need to require hoa/mime
:
$ composer require hoa/mime '~3.0'
For more installation procedures, please read the Source page.
Testing
Before running the test suites, the development dependencies must be installed:
$ composer install
Then, to run all the test suites:
$ vendor/bin/hoa test:run
For more information, please read the contributor guide.
Quick usage
As a quick overview, we will see how to get general and stream-related informations.
General informations
All we need is static methods Hoa\Mime\Mime::getExtensionsFromMime
to get extensions from a type and Hoa\Mime\Mime::getMimeFromExtension
to get type from an extension:
print_r(Hoa\Mime\Mime::getExtensionsFromMime('text/html'));
/**
* Will output:
* Array
* (
* [0] => html
* [1] => htm
* )
*/
var_dump(Hoa\Mime\Mime::getMimeFromExtension('webm'));
/**
* Will output:
* string(10) "video/webm"
*/
By default, Hoa\Mime\Mime
uses the hoa://Library/Mime/Mime.types
file as database. We can change this behavior by calling the Hoa\Mime\Mime::compute
before any computations:
Hoa\Mime\Mime::compute('/etc/mime.types');
Stream-related informations
By instanciating the Hoa\Mime\Mime
class with a stream, we are able to get some informations about the stream, such as its extension, others extensions, type, etc. Thus:
$type = new Hoa\Mime\Mime(new Hoa\File\Read('index.html'));
var_dump(
$type->getExtension(),
$type->getOtherExtensions(),
$type->getMime(),
$type->isExperimental()
);
/**
* Will output:
* string(4) "html"
* array(1) {
* [0]=>
* string(3) "htm"
* }
* string(9) "text/html"
* bool(false)
*/
