NAME<\/a> File::MimeInfo::Magic \u2212 Determine file type with magic<\/p>\n use File::MimeInfo::Magic; This module inherits from File::MimeInfo, it is transparent to its functions but adds support for the freedesktop magic file.<\/p>\n Magic data is hashed when you need it for the first time. If you want to force hashing earlier use the “rehash()” function.<\/p>\n The method “mimetype” is exported by default. The methods “magic”, “inodetype”, “globs” and “describe” can be exported on demand.<\/p>\n See also File::MimeInfo for methods that are inherited. Returns a mime-type string for $file, returns undef on failure.<\/p>\n This method bundles “inodetype()”, “globs()” and “magic()”.<\/p>\n Magic rules with an priority of 80 and higher are checked before “globs()” is called, all other magic rules afterwards.<\/p>\n If this doesn\u2019t work the file is read and the mime-type defaults to \u2019text\/plain\u2019 or to \u2019application\/octet\u2212stream\u2019 when the first ten chars of the file match ascii control chars (white spaces excluded). If the file doesn\u2019t exist or isn\u2019t readable “undef” is returned.<\/p>\n If $file is an object reference only “magic” and the default method are used. See below for details.<\/p>\n “magic($file)”<\/p>\n Returns a mime-type string for $file based on the magic rules, returns undef on failure.<\/p>\n $file can be an object reference, in that case it is supposed to have a “seek()” and a “read()” method. This allows you for example to determine the mimetype of data in memory by using IO::Scalar.<\/p>\n Be aware that when using a filehandle or an “IO::” object you need to set the “:utf8” binmode yourself if appropriate.<\/p>\n “rehash()”<\/p>\n Rehash the data files. Glob and magic information is preparsed when this method is called.<\/p>\n If you want to by-pass the XDG<\/small> basedir system you can specify your database directories by setting @File::MimeInfo::DIRS. But normally it is better to change the XDG<\/small> basedir environment variables.<\/p>\n “default” These routines are imported from File::MimeInfo.<\/p>\n File::MimeInfo<\/p>\n Only word sizes of 1, 2 or 4 are supported. Any other word size is ignored and will cause a warning.<\/p>\n
