Small and dependency free Nim package to infer file and MIME type checking the magic numbers signature. filetype is heavily inspired by h2non/filetype.
Table of contents
import filetype
let content = readFile("tests/testdata/sample.png")
doAssert match(content).extension == "png"
doAssert matchFile("tests/testdata/sample.png").mime.value == "image/png"
doAssert isPngFile("tests/testdata/sample.png")
if isZipFile("tests/testdata/sample.zip"):
echo "file is zip"type
