The mimetypes Module

The mimetypes module contains support for determining the MIME type for a given uniform resource locator. This is based on a built-in table, plus Apache and Netscape configuration files, if they are found. This module is demonstrated in Example 6-9.

Example 6-9. Using the mimetypes Module

File: mimetypes-example-1.py import mimetypes import glob, urllib for file in glob.glob("samples/*"): url = urllib.pathname2url(file) print file, mimetypes.guess_type(url) samplessample.au ('audio/basic', None) samplessample.ini (None, None) samplessample.jpg ('image/jpeg', None) samplessample.msg (None, None) samplessample.tar ('application/x-tar', None) samplessample.tgz ('application/x-tar', 'gzip') samplessample.txt ('text/plain', None) samplessample.wav ('audio/x-wav', None) samplessample.zip ('application/zip', None)
