Network.HTTP.Lucu.MIMEType.Guess

MIME Type guessing by a file extension. This is a poor man's way of guessing MIME Types. It is simple and fast.

In general you don't have to use this module directly.

Documentation

type ExtMap = Map String MIMEType

Map from extension to MIME Type.

guessTypeByFileName :: ExtMap -> FilePath -> Maybe MIMEType

Guess the MIME Type of file.

parseExtMapFile :: FilePath -> IO ExtMap

Read an Apache mime.types and parse it.

serializeExtMap :: ExtMap -> String -> String -> String

serializeExtMap extMap moduleName variableName generates a Haskell source code which contains the following things:

• A definition of module named moduleName.
• variableName :: ExtMap whose content is a serialization of extMap.

The module Network.HTTP.Lucu.MIMEType.DefaultExtensionMap is surely generated using this function.
