Overview

This class is responsible for initializing the MIME::Types registry from the data files supplied with the mime-types library.

The Loader will use one of the following paths:

  1. The path provided in its constructor argument;

  2. The value of ENV; or

  3. The value of MIME::Types::Loader::PATH.

When #load is called, the path will be searched recursively for all YAML (.yml or .yaml) files. By convention, there is one file for each media type (application.yml, audio.yml, etc.), but this is not required.

Constant Summary collapse

BadV1Format =

Raised when a V1 format file is discovered.

Class.new(Exception)
PATH =

The path that will be used for loading the MIME::Types data. The default location is __FILE__/../../../../data, which is where the data lives in the gem installation of the mime-types library.

The MIME::Types::Loader will load all YAML files contained in this path. By convention, there is one file for each media type (e.g., application.yml, audio.yml, etc.).

System repackagers note: this is the constant that you would change if you repackage mime-types for your system. It is recommended that the path be something like /usr/share/ruby/mime-types/.

File.expand_path('../../../../data', __FILE__)

Constructor Details

#initialize(path = nil, container = nil) ⇒ Loader

Creates a Loader object that can be used to load MIME::Types registries into memory, using YAML, JSON, or v1 registry format loaders.

def initialize(path = nil, container = nil)

  @path      = File.expand_path(File.join(path, '**'))
  @container = container || MIME::Types.new
end

Instance Attribute Details

#container ⇒ Object (readonly)

The MIME::Types container instance that will be loaded. If not provided at initialization, a new MIME::Types instance will be constructed.

.load ⇒ Object

Loads the default MIME::Type registry.

.load_from_json(filename) ⇒ Object

Loads MIME::Types from a single JSON file.

It is expected that the JSON objects will be an array of hash objects. The JSON format is the registry format for the MIME types registry shipped with the mime-types library.

def load_from_json(filename)
  require 'json'
  JSON.parse(read_file(filename)).map { |type| MIME::Type.new(type) }
end

.load_from_v1(filename) ⇒ Object

Build the type list from a file in the format:

[*][!][os:]mt/st[<ws>@ext][<ws>:enc][<ws>'url-list][<ws>=docs]

*

An unofficial MIME type. This should be used if and only if the MIME type is not properly specified (that is, not under either x-type or vnd.name.type).

!

An obsolete MIME type. May be used with an unofficial MIME type.

os:

Platform-specific MIME type definition.

mt

The media type.

st

The media subtype.

<ws>@ext

The list of comma-separated extensions.

<ws>:enc

The encoding.

<ws>‘url-list

The list of comma-separated URLs.

<ws>=docs

The documentation string.

That is, everything except the media type and the subtype is optional. The more information that’s available, though, the richer the values that can be provided.

end

.load_from_yaml(filename) ⇒ Object

Loads MIME::Types from a single YAML file.

It is expected that the YAML objects contained within the registry array will be tagged as !ruby/object:MIME::Type.

Note that the YAML format is about 2½ times slower than either the v1 format or the JSON format.

NOTE: The purpose of this format is purely for maintenance reasons.

Instance Method Details

#load_json ⇒ Object Also known as: load

Loads a MIME::Types registry from JSON files (*.json) recursively found in path.

It is expected that the JSON objects will be an array of hash objects. The JSON format is the registry format for the MIME types registry shipped with the mime-types library.

This method is aliased to #load.

  end

end

#load_v1 ⇒ Object

Loads a MIME::Types registry from files found in path that are in the v1 data format. The file search for this will exclude both JSON (*.json) and YAML (*.yml or *.yaml) files.

This method has been deprecated.
