| <p>We need the functionality to identify the mimetype of documents, e.g. for compound handling or to control data transformation in BPEL. |
| </p> |
| <a name="Technical_proposal"></a><h2> <span class="mw-headline"> Technical proposal </span></h2> |
| <p>The MimeTypeIdentifier has to provide functionality to identify the mimetype of a document, either by the documents content or by file extension mapping to mimetypes. |
| The interface supports both approaches, as both may be combined for optimized results. Implementations could be done stepwise: |
| </p> |
| <ul><li> initial implementation: file extension to mime type mapping |
| </li><li> advanced implementation: magic bytes analysis |
| </li></ul> |
| <p>{info:title=Useful Information} |
| Mimetype identification is one of the core tasks of aperture. Their approach is a combination of MagicBytes interpretation and file extension to mimetype mapping. |
| Perhaps it is possible that aperture contributes this functionality to SMILA ? For details see [<a href="http://aperture.wiki.sourceforge.net/MIMETypeIdentification" class="external autonumber" title="http://aperture.wiki.sourceforge.net/MIMETypeIdentification" rel="nofollow">[1]</a>] |
| </p><p>Aperture is also capable of identifying (and converting) OpenOffice formats like .docx. So these formats are not confused with zips containing XML files. see [<a href="https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=14cc92570704020743h33c5685at97b9618a5c4c04e3%40mail.gmail.com" class="external autonumber" title="https://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=14cc92570704020743h33c5685at97b9618a5c4c04e3%40mail.gmail.com" rel="nofollow">[2]</a>] |

| <a name="Configuration"></a><h3> <span class="mw-headline"> Configuration </span></h3> |
| <p>For the file extension - mimetype mapping a configuration has to be provided. Note that multiple extensions may be associated with a single mimetype. This is supported. In theory a single extension may also be associated with multiple mimetypes. This may be a valid case but the mapping used by MimeTypeIdentifier has to be unambiguous! The implementation has to ensure this and prevent such configurations (e.g. by simply overriding ). |
| A configuration could look like this: |
