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'
say mimetype("C:\perl\foo.pl") # prints out 'application/x-perl'

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 uses a key-value list for extensions. 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.
