mimemap {mime}

Tables for mapping filename extensions to MIME types

Description

The data mimemap is a named character vector that stores the filename extensions and the corresponding MIME types, e.g. c(html = 'text/html', pdf = 'application/pdf', ...). The character vector mimeextra stores some additional types that we know, such as Markdown files (‘.md’), or R scripts (‘.R’).

Source

The file ‘/etc/mime.types’ on Debian.

Examples

str(as.list(mimemap))
mimemap["pdf"]
mimemap[c("html", "js", "css")]
# additional MIME types (not exported)
mime:::mimeextra
