+# mime
+
+Comprehensive MIME type mapping API based on mime-db module.
+
+## Install
+
+Install with [npm](http://github.com/isaacs/npm):
+
+ npm install mime
+
+## Contributing / Testing
+
+ npm run test
+
+## Command Line
+
+ mime [path_string]
+
+E.g.
+
+ > mime scripts/jquery.js
+ application/javascript
+
+## API - Queries
+
+### mime.lookup(path)
+Get the mime type associated with a file, if no mime type is found `application/octet-stream` is returned. Performs a case-insensitive lookup using the extension in `path` (the substring after the last '/' or '.'). E.g.
+
+```js
+var mime = require('mime');
+
+mime.lookup('/path/to/file.txt'); // => 'text/plain'
+mime.lookup('file.txt'); // => 'text/plain'
+mime.lookup('.TXT'); // => 'text/plain'
+mime.lookup('htm'); // => 'text/html'
+```
+
+### mime.default_type
+Sets the mime type returned when `mime.lookup` fails to find the extension searched for. (Default is `application/octet-stream`.)
+
+### mime.extension(type)
+Get the default extension for `type`
+
+```js
+mime.extension('text/html'); // => 'html'
+mime.extension('application/octet-stream'); // => 'bin'
+```
+
+### mime.charsets.lookup()
+
+Map mime-type to charset
+
+```js
+mime.charsets.lookup('text/plain'); // => 'UTF-8'
+```
+
+(The logic for charset lookups is pretty rudimentary. Feel free to suggest improvements.)
+
+## API - Defining Custom Types
+
+Custom type mappings can be added on a per-project basis via the following APIs.
+
+### mime.define()
+
+Add custom mime/extension mappings
+
+```js
+mime.define({
+ 'text/x-some-format': ['x-sf', 'x-sft', 'x-sfml'],
+ 'application/x-my-type': ['x-mt', 'x-mtt'],
+ // etc ...
+});
+
+mime.lookup('x-sft'); // => 'text/x-some-format'
+```
+
+The first entry in the extensions array is returned by `mime.extension()`. E.g.
+
+```js
+mime.extension('text/x-some-format'); // => 'x-sf'
+```
+
+### mime.load(filepath)
+
+Load mappings from an Apache ".types" format file
+
+```js
+mime.load('./my_project.types');
+```
+The .types file format is simple - See the `types` dir for examples.
