Apache MIME Types
=================

Parses Apache MIME Types files and provides a simple interface to find
extensions by type and type by extension.


Features
--------

 * Bundles `mime.types` from the Apache HTTP Project. ([see here][1])
 * Bundles a JSON representation of Apache `mime.types`.
 * Provides an interface for reading either flat Apache HTTP `mime.types`
   or a JSON representation.


Requirements
------------

 * PHP 5.3.3+

Installation
------------

Through [Composer][3] as [dflydev/apache-mime-types][4].


Usage
-----

### Parser

Parses Apache MIME Types in the format of `mime.types` [found here][1].

```php
<?php
$parser = new Dflydev\ApacheMimeTypes\Parser;

$map = $parser->parse('/path/to/mime.types');
```

The return value from `parse` is an array mapping types to an array of
extensions.

```php
<?php
array(
    'text/html' => array('html', 'htm'),
);
```


### PhpRepository

A repository backed by static PHP arrays.

```php
<?php
$repository = new Dflydev\ApacheMimeTypes\PhpRepository;

$type = $repository->findType('html');
$extensions = $repository->findExtensions('text/html');

var_dump($type);
var_dump($extensions);

//
// Result
//
// string(9) "text/html"
// array(2) {
//   [0]=>
//   string(4) "html"
//   [1]=>
//   string(3) "htm"
// }
//
```


### JsonRepository

A repository backed by a JSON map of type to extensions.

```json
{
    "text/html": ["html", "htm"]
}
```

To use the embedded JSON:

```php
<?php
$repository = new Dflydev\ApacheMimeTypes\JsonRepository;

$type = $repository->findType('html');
$extensions = $repository->findExtensions('text/html');

var_dump($type);
var_dump($extensions);

//
// Result
//
// string(9) "text/html"
// array(2) {
//   [0]=>
//   string(4) "html"
//   [1]=>
//   string(3) "htm"
// }
//
```

To specify a specific JSON mapping:

```php
<?php
$repository = new Dflydev\ApacheMimeTypes\JsonRepository('/path/to/mime.types.json');
```

### FlatRepository

A repository backed by Apache MIME Types formatted `mime.types`. To use the embedded
`mime.types`:

```php
<?php
$repository = new Dflydev\ApacheMimeTypes\FlatRepository;

$type = $repository->findType('html');
$extensions = $repository->findExtensions('text/html');

var_dump($type);
var_dump($extensions);

//
// Result
//
// string(9) "text/html"
// array(2) {
//   [0]=>
//   string(4) "html"
//   [1]=>
//   string(3) "htm"
// }
//
```

To specify a specific `mime.types` mapping:

```php
<?php
$repository = new Dflydev\ApacheMimeTypes\FlatRepository('/path/to/mime.types');
```

Not Invented Here
-----------------

This project is based heavily on [skyzyx/mimetypes][2]. The major difference is
that [skyzyx/mimetypes][2] is focussed on creating JSON files from Apache
`mime.types` rather than providing a way to interact with Apache MIME Types as
a data source.
