[Java] Various methods of obtaining MIME type based on file

1,Mime-util:

The tool can detect MIME types by detecting file extensions, or by detecting magic header two technical ways.

Reliable and lightweight, relying only on slf4j a package . It hasn't been updated in 2010 years.

POM

<dependency>    <groupId>eu.medsea.mimeutil</groupId>    <artifactid>mime-util</ Artifactid>    <version>2.1.3</version></dependency>

Example code:

Import Eu.medsea.mimeutil.MimeUtil;  public class Main {public      static void Main (string[] args) {          mimeutil.registermimedetector (" Eu.medsea.mimeutil.detector.MagicMimeMimeDetector ");          File F = new file ("C:/temp/mime/test.doc");          collection<?> mimetypes = Mimeutil.getmimetypes (f);          System.out.println (mimetypes);  Output:application/msword      }  }  

2.Jmimemagic It is obviously not a robust method to find the file type by detecting the file suffix name. Jmimemagic is a Java toolkit that examines the MIME type of a file or stream by examining the magic headers. it is still under continuous updating and recommended. POM

<dependency>    <groupId>net.sf.jmimemagic</groupId>    <artifactid>jmimemagic</ Artifactid>    <version>0.1.4</version></dependency>

Sample code

Magic parser = new Magic ();  Getmagicmatch accepts Files or byte[],  //which is nice if you want to test streams  magicmatch match = PARSER.G Etmagicmatch (New File ("Gumby.gif"));  System.out.println (Match.getmimetype ());  

3.Java.net.URL similar to the above-mentioned match suffix name. The mapping of suffix names and mime-type is defined in the [Jre_home]\lib\content-types.propertiesThis component only determines the Mime-type based on the file name extension . Not very reliable.
Sample code (recommended)

Import Java.net.FileNameMap;  Import java.net.URLConnection;    public class FileUtils {public      static string GetMimeType (String fileUrl)        throws Java.io.IOException      {        fileNameMap fileNameMap = Urlconnection.getfilenamemap ();        String type = filenamemap.getcontenttypefor (FILEURL);          return type;      }        public static void Main (String args[]) throws Exception {        System.out.println (Fileutils.getmimetype ("file://c:/ Temp/test. TXT "));        Output:  text/plain      }    

Sample code (not recommended: This is also determined by the extension, MIME type, and very slow)

Import java.net.*;    public class fileutils{Public    static string GetMimeType (String fileUrl)      throws Java.io.IOException, Malformedurlexception    {      String type = null;      URL u = new URL (fileUrl);      URLConnection UC = null;      UC = U.openconnection ();      Type = Uc.getcontenttype ();      return type;    }      public static void Main (String args[]) throws Exception {      System.out.println (Fileutils.getmimetype ("file://c:/ Temp/test. TXT "));      Output:  text/plain    }  }  

4.Javax.activation.MimetypesFileTypeMap need to introduce Activation.jar this jar package, he can get from this websiteHttp://java.sun.com/products/javabeans/glasgow/jaf.html. 
the Mimetypesfilemap class maps a file's MIME type, which is defined in the resource file in the Activation.jar package .The number of Mime-type in your own list is limited, but it provides a way for you to easily add more MIME types

Mimetypesfiletypemap will find the MIME type of the file in many parts of the user's system. When a request to find a MIME type arrives, he will find the MIME type in the following order

you first add the file to an instance of Mimetypesfiletypemap by using a program
Locate the file under the user's home path. Mime.types
Find Files <java.home>/lib/mime.types
Find files or resources meta-inf/mime.types
find Files or resource Meta-inf/mimetypes.default (typically found only in Activation.jar).

This method is very interesting when you need to process a file named for an incoming generic file. The results come out fast because only the extension is used to guess the nature of the file's propertiesSample Code

Import Javax.activation.MimetypesFileTypeMap;  Import Java.io.File;    Class GetMimeType {public    static void Main (String args[]) {      file F = new File ("Gumby.gif");      System.out.println ("Mime Type of" + f.getname () + "is" +                           new Mimetypesfiletypemap (). getContentType (f));      Expected output:      //"Mime Type of Gumby.gif is Image/gif"    }  }
