=head1 NAME

LWP::MediaTypes - guess media type for a file or a URL

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use LWP::MediaTypes qw(guess_media_type);
 $type = guess_media_type("/tmp/foo.gif");

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides functions for handling media (also known as
MIME) types and encodings.  The mapping from file extensions to media
types is defined by the F<media.types> file.  If the F<~/.media.types>
file exists it is used instead.
For backwards compatibility we will also look for F<~/.mime.types>.

The following functions are exported by default:

=over 4

=item guess_media_type( $filename )

=item guess_media_type( $uri )

=item guess_media_type( $filename_or_uri, $header_to_modify )

This function tries to guess media type and encoding for a file or a URI.
It returns the content type, which is a string like C<"text/html">.
In array context it also returns any content encodings applied (in the
order used to encode the file).  You can pass a URI object
reference, instead of the file name.

If the type can not be deduced from looking at the file name,
then guess_media_type() will let the C<-T> Perl operator take a look.
If this works (and C<-T> returns a TRUE value) then we return
I<text/plain> as the type, otherwise we return
I<application/octet-stream> as the type.

The optional second argument should be a reference to a HTTP::Headers
object or any object that implements the $obj->header method in a
similar way.  When it is present the values of the
'Content-Type' and 'Content-Encoding' will be set for this header.

=item media_suffix( $type, ... )

This function will return all suffixes that can be used to denote the
specified media type(s).  Wildcard types can be used.  In a scalar
context it will return the first suffix found. Examples:

@suffixes = media_suffix('image/*', 'audio/basic');
  $suffix = media_suffix('text/html');

=back

The following functions are only exported by explicit request:

=over 4

=item add_type( $type, @exts )

Associate a list of file extensions with the given media type.
Example:

add_type("x-world/x-vrml" => qw(wrl vrml));

=item add_encoding( $type, @ext )

Associate a list of file extensions with an encoding type.
Example:

add_encoding("x-gzip" => "gz");

=item read_media_types( @files )

Parse media types files and add the type mappings found there.
Example:

read_media_types("conf/mime.types");
