Mimey

PHP package for converting file extensions to MIME types and vice versa.

This package uses [httpd]'s [mime.types] to generate a mapping of file extension to MIME type and the other way around. Click here to view the changelog from their svn: [changelog]

The mime.types file is parsed by bin/generate.php and converted into an optimized JSON object in dist/mime.types.min.json which is then wrapped by helper class MimeTypes.

Also provides a generated PHP enum with all mime types and methods to get the extension. Can also be used to get the enum value from an extension.

[httpd]: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/programs/httpd.html [mime.types]: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/conf/mime.types [changelog]: https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/conf/mime.types?view=log

Usage

$mimes = new MimeTypes;

// Convert extension to MIME type:
$mimes->getMimeType('json'); // application/json

// Convert MIME type to extension:
$mimes->getExtension('application/json'); // json

Using the enum

$json = MimeType::ApplicationJson;
echo $json->getExtension(); // json
echo $json->value; // application/json

$html = MimeType::fromExtension('html');
echo $html->value; // text/html

MimeType::fromExtension('asdf'); // throws an InvalidArgumentException if the extension cannot be found

Getting All

It's rare, but some extensions have multiple MIME types:

// Get all MIME types for an extension:
$mimes->getAllMimeTypes('wmz'); // array('application/x-ms-wmz', 'application/x-msmetafile')

However, there are many MIME types that have multiple extensions:

// Get all extensions for a MIME type:
$mimes->getAllExtensions('image/jpeg'); // array('jpeg', 'jpg', 'jpe')

Custom Conversions

You can add custom conversions by changing the mapping that is given to MimeTypes.

There is a Mapping\Builder that can help with this:

use Esi\Mimey\Mapping\Builder;

// Create a builder using the built-in conversions as the basis.
$builder = Builder::create();

// Add a conversion. This conversion will take precedence over existing ones.
$builder->add('custom/mime-type', 'myextension');

$mimes = new MimeTypes($builder->getMapping());
$mimes->getMimeType('myextension'); // custom/mime-type
$mimes->getExtension('custom/mime-type'); // myextension

You can add as many conversions as you would like to the builder:

$builder->add('custom/mime-type', 'myextension');
$builder->add('foo/bar', 'foobar');
$builder->add('foo/bar', 'fbar');
$builder->add('baz/qux', 'qux');
$builder->add('cat/qux', 'qux');
...

Optimized Custom Conversion Loading

You can optimize the loading of custom conversions by saving all conversions to a compiled PHP file as part of a build step.

// Add a bunch of custom conversions.
$builder->add(...);
$builder->add(...);
$builder->add(...);
...
// Save the conversions to a cached file.
$builder->save($cacheFilePath);

The file can then be loaded to avoid overhead of repeated $builder->add(...) calls:

// Load the conversions from a cached file.
$builder = Builder::load($cacheFilePath);
$mimes = new MimeTypes($builder->getMapping());
