\title{Retrieve 'Magic' Attributes from Files and Directories}

\description{

|
|
|
The 'libmagic' library provides functions to determine 'MIME' type and other
|
|
|
|
|
metadata from files through their "magic" attributes. This is useful when you
|
|
|
|
|
do not wish to rely solely on the honesty of a user or the extension on a
|
|
|
|
|
file name. It also incorporates other metadata from the mime-db database

The header checking is minimal (i.e. nowhere near as comprehensive as \code{libmagic}) but
|
|
|
|
|
covers quite a bit of ground. If there are content-check types from
|
|
|
|
|
\href{https://github.com/threatstack/libmagic/tree/master/magic/}{magic sources}
|
|
|
|
|
that you would like coded into the package, please file an issue and
|
|
|
|
|
\emph{include the full line(s)} from that linked \code{magic.tab} that you would like mapped.
