pub fn guess_mime_type<P: AsRef<Path>>(path: P) -> Mime
👎Deprecated since 2.0.0: Use
from_path(path).first_or_octet_stream()
insteadExpand description
Guess the MIME type of path
by its extension (as defined by Path::extension()
).
If path
has no extension, or its extension has no known MIME type mapping,
then the MIME type is assumed to be application/octet-stream
.
§Note
Guess is the operative word here, as there are no guarantees that the contents of the file
that path
points to match the MIME type associated with the path’s extension.
Take care when processing files with assumptions based on the return value of this function.
In HTTP applications, it might be preferable to not send a Content-Type
header at all instead of defaulting to application/octet-stream
.
