NAME

File::MimeInfo::Simple - Simple implementation to determine file type

USAGE

use File::MimeInfo::Simple;
say mimetype("/Users/damog/vatos_rudos.jpg"); # prints out 'image/jpeg'

DESCRIPTION

File::MimeInfo::Simple is a much simpler implementation and uses a much simpler approach than File::MimeInfo, using the 'file' command on a UNIX-based operating system. Windows support will be available soon. It's inspired on Matt Aimonetti's mimetype-fu used on Ruby and the Rails world.

FUNCTIONS

mimetype( $filename )

mimetype is exported by default. It receives a parameter, the file path. It returns an string containing the mime type for the file.

DEPENDENCIES

Modern::Perl
Capture::Tiny

They are both great and excellent modules that everyone should install, use and advocate on a regular basis.

TODO

Make it work for Windows.
