@ -20,17 +20,15 @@ determined from "magic" bytes in file headers, file contents or intuited from
file extensions. Tools are provided to perform curated "magic" tests as well
as mapping 'MIME' types from a database of over 1,500 extension mappings.
Provides a more portable/ligtweight alternative to the `wand` package.
## SOME IMPORTANT DETAILS
The header checking is minimal (i.e. nowhere near as comprehensive as `libmagic`) but covers quite a bit of ground. If there are content-check types from [`magic sources`](https://github.com/threatstack/libmagic/tree/master/magic/) that you would like coded into the package, please file an issue and _include the full line(s)_ from that linked `magic.tab` that you would like mapped.
## What's Inside The Tin
- `get_content_type`: Discover MIME type of a file based on contents
- `guess_content_type`: Guess MIME type from filename (extension)
- `simplemagic_mime_db`: File extension-to-MIME mapping data frame
