Constructor Details

#initialize(content_type) {|_self| ... } ⇒ Type

Builds a MIME::Type object from the content_type, a MIME Content Type value (e.g., ‘text/plain’ or ‘application/x-eruby’). The constructed object is yielded to an optional block for additional configuration, such as associating extensions and encoding information.

  • When provided a Hash or a MIME::Type, the MIME::Type will be constructed with #init_with.

  • When provided an Array, the MIME::Type will be constructed using the first element as the content type and the remaining flattened elements as extensions.

  • Otherwise, the content_type will be used as a string.

Yields the newly constructed self object.

Yields:

  • (_self)

Yield Parameters:

  • _self (MIME::Type) —

    the object that the method was called on

.simplified(content_type, remove_x_prefix: false) ⇒ Object

MIME media types are case-insensitive, but are typically presented in a case-preserving format in the type registry. This method converts content_type to lowercase.

In previous versions of mime-types, this would also remove any extension prefix (x-). This is no longer default behaviour, but may be provided by providing a truth value to remove_x_prefix.

  simplify_matchdata(match(content_type), remove_x_prefix)
end

Instance Method Details

#<=>(other) ⇒ Object

Compares the other MIME::Type against the exact content type or the simplified type (the simplified type will be used if comparing against something that can be treated as a String with #to_s). In comparisons, this is done against the lowercase version of the MIME::Type.

#priority_compare(other) ⇒ Object

Compares the other MIME::Type based on how reliable it is before doing a normal <=> comparison. Used by MIME::Types#[] to sort types. The comparisons involved are:

  1. self.simplified <=> other.simplified (ensures that we don’t try to compare different types)

  2. IANA-registered definitions < other definitions.

  3. Complete definitions < incomplete definitions.

  4. Current definitions < obsolete definitions.

  5. Obselete with use-instead names < obsolete without.

  6. Obsolete use-instead definitions are compared.

While this method is public, its use is strongly discouraged by consumers of mime-types. In mime-types 3, this method is likely to see substantial revision and simplification to ensure current registered content types sort before unregistered or obsolete content types.
