-# mime
-
-Comprehensive MIME type mapping API. Includes all 600+ types and 800+ extensions defined by the Apache project, plus additional types submitted by the node.js community.
-
-## Install
-
-Install with [npm](http://github.com/isaacs/npm):
-
- npm install mime
-
-## 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.
-
- 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`
-
- mime.extension('text/html'); // => 'html'
- mime.extension('application/octet-stream'); // => 'bin'
-
-### mime.charsets.lookup()
-
-Map mime-type to charset
-
- mime.charsets.lookup('text/plain'); // => 'UTF-8'
-
-(The logic for charset lookups is pretty rudimentary. Feel free to suggest improvements.)
-
-## API - Defining Custom Types
-
-The following APIs allow you to add your own type mappings within your project. If you feel a type should be included as part of node-mime, see [requesting new types](https://github.com/broofa/node-mime/wiki/Requesting-New-Types).
-
-### mime.define()
-
-Add custom mime/extension mappings
-
- 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.
-
- mime.extension('text/x-some-format'); // => 'x-sf'
-
-### mime.load(filepath)
-
-Load mappings from an Apache ".types" format file
-
- mime.load('./my_project.types');
-
-The .types file format is simple - See the `types` dir for examples.
