Overview

Encapsulates the notion of a MIME type. Can be used at render time, for example, with:

class PostsController < ActionController::Base
  def show
    @post = Post.find(params[:id])

    respond_to do |format|
      format.html
      format.ics { render body: @post.to_ics, mime_type: Mime::Type.lookup("text/calendar")  }
      format.xml { render xml: @post }
    end
  end
end

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(method, *args) (private)

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_type.rb', line 293

def method_missing(method, *args)
  if method.to_s.ends_with? "?"
    method[0..-2].downcase.to_sym == to_sym
  else
    super
  end
end

Class Method Details

.lookup(string)

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_type.rb', line 144

def lookup(string)
  LOOKUP[string] || Type.new(string)
end

.lookup_by_extension(extension)

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_type.rb', line 148

def lookup_by_extension(extension)
  EXTENSION_LOOKUP[extension.to_s]
end

.parse(accept_header)

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_type.rb', line 172

def parse(accept_header)
  if !accept_header.include?(",")
    accept_header = accept_header.split(PARAMETER_SEPARATOR_REGEXP).first
    parse_trailing_star(accept_header) || [Mime::Type.lookup(accept_header)].compact
  else
    list, index = [], 0
    accept_header.split(",").each do |header|
      params, q = header.split(PARAMETER_SEPARATOR_REGEXP)

      next unless params
      params.strip!
      next if params.empty?

      params = parse_trailing_star(params) || [params]

      params.each do |m|
        list << AcceptItem.new(index, m.to_s, q)
        index += 1
      end
    end
    AcceptList.sort! list
  end
end

.parse_data_with_trailing_star(type)

For an input of 'text', returns [Mime[:json], Mime[:xml], Mime[:ics], Mime[:html], Mime[:css], Mime[:csv], Mime[:js], Mime[:yaml], Mime[:text].

For an input of 'application', returns [Mime[:html], Mime[:js], Mime[:xml], Mime[:yaml], Mime[:atom], Mime[:json], Mime[:rss], Mime[:url_encoded_form].

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_type.rb', line 205

def parse_data_with_trailing_star(type)
  Mime::SET.select { |m| m =~ type }

end

.register(string, symbol, mime_type_synonyms = [], extension_synonyms = [], skip_lookup = false)

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_type.rb', line 158

def register(string, symbol, mime_type_synonyms = [], extension_synonyms = [], skip_lookup = false)
  new_mime = Type.new(string, symbol, mime_type_synonyms)

  SET << new_mime

  ([string] + mime_type_synonyms).each { |str| LOOKUP[str] = new_mime } unless skip_lookup
  ([symbol] + extension_synonyms).each { |ext| EXTENSION_LOOKUP[ext.to_s] = new_mime }

  @register_callbacks.each do |callback|
    callback.call(new_mime)
  end
  new_mime
end

.register_alias(string, symbol, extension_synonyms = [])

Registers an alias that’s not used on MIME type lookup, but can be referenced directly. Especially useful for rendering different HTML versions depending on the user agent, like an iPhone.

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_type.rb', line 154

def register_alias(string, symbol, extension_synonyms = [])
  register(string, symbol, [], extension_synonyms, true)
end

.register_callback(&block)

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_type.rb', line 140

def register_callback(&block)
  @register_callbacks << block
end

.unregister(symbol)

This method is opposite of register method.

To unregister a MIME type:

Mime::Type.unregister(:mobile)
[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/http/mime_type.rb', line 214

def unregister(symbol)
  symbol = symbol.downcase
  if mime = Mime[symbol]
    SET.delete_if { |v| v.eql?(mime) }
    LOOKUP.delete_if { |_, v| v.eql?(mime) }
    EXTENSION_LOOKUP.delete_if { |_, v| v.eql?(mime) }
  end
end
