R: Tables for mapping filename extensions to MIME types

mimemap {mime} | R Documentation

## Tables for mapping filename extensions to MIME types

### Description

The data `mimemap` is a named character vector that stores the filename extensions and the corresponding MIME types, e.g. `c(html = 'text/html', pdf = 'application/pdf', ...)`. The character vector `mimeextra` stores some additional types that we know, such as Markdown files (‘.md’), or R scripts (‘.R’).

### Source

The file ‘/etc/mime.types’ on Debian.

### Examples

    str(as.list(mimemap))
    mimemap["pdf"]
    mimemap[c("html", "js", "css")]
    # additional MIME types (not exported)
    mime:::mimeextra
